On Oct 3rd you will head down to your local GW purveyor and pick up a copy of the new Space Wolf codex. As you approach the cash register with the book in hand you might notice a gentleman ahead of you with the same book. He is not the part of your local gaming group and just seems sorta out-of-place. You are not sure if it is the smell he is wearing or is it the long unkempt hair down his back? Or the slouched posture and overweight features?
What you are standing next to is an ancient creature that has laid dormant for almost a decade. This is a Space Wolf player: part SCA part LARP, he has gone unnoticed for too long. The Space Wolf player by his very nature is a lone wolf and often has not come to terms with his very nature.
If you are afraid you might be one here is a test to help determine and also identify a Space Wolf player.
Do you own or have an unquenchable hunger for the first set of images? Does the second set of images make you nervous?
If you are still unsure and have a girlfriend there are some final questions you need to answer.
- Does breast size matter more than weight?
- Do you and her often compete to see who can grow their hair out the longest?
- Does your girlfriend own a corset?
- Does she read anthropomorphic romance novels?
- Is she planning a period wedding?
- Does she own Tarot cards just for the art?
- Does she have an unnatural ability to find New Age stores?
- Does she have pagan bumper stickers like, “My other car is a broom”?
- Does her place have five times more candles then lamps?
- Does she spend a lot of time sewing?
Finally do you feel the call of the moon when it is full?
If you do not feel the call, then at least remember to honor this player, for he only appears for a fleeting moment. He is a battle brother that has been gone for too long. He might not know how to make a power build, so lead him in the ways of Rune Priests and Wolf Guard, show him the power of frost axes and the might of Logan Grimmar. He can regale you with battles of yore, but he needs a new direction. Even if his body odor is toxic, remember he has waited a long time for this day, show him respect and lead him to the great hall of heroes. Do not worry if his enthusiasm overwhelms you, he will soon enough resume the Great Hunt in search of his lost Primarch.
