when I started reading in about germanic and slavic culture, I noticed the fact they both knew stories of people turing into wolves. intrigued by the fact, I started digging in, searching more information.

I eventuly found information about a certain group of norse warriors.

The Úlfhéðnar (singular Úlfhéðinn), mentioned in the Vatnsdœla saga, Haraldskvæði and the Völsunga saga, were said to wear the pelt of a wolf when they entered battle.[1] Úlfhéðnar are sometimes described as Odin's special warriors, with the pelt from a wolf and a spear as distinguishing features.

when I dugg up more information (I never rely on wiki alone) it almost seemed like a warrior cult to me.


could something like that happen? and where is it most likely?

so my challenge: Create a cult of soldiers believing they turn into wolves on the eave of battle. a warriors religion.

only one thing...No ASB;)
