 The Goldwolf, also called the Daywolf, is said to be a golden werewolf with deep blue eyes. She is depicted wearing shining golden ornaments and sometimes even pieces of metal armor. Her legends often tell of her appearing in broad daylight, unlike the other members of the Six. She appears at times to those weary from long travels under the beating sun to pretend to chase them for amusement, at least until they collapse in exhaustion. She often devours them afterward.
 ===The Bloodwolf===
-The Bloodwolf, also called the Redwolf or the Crimson Devourer, is depicted as a crimson red werewolf with bright, golden-yellow eyes. Unlike the rest of the Six, who generally have ornamentation relatively consistent across their tales, the Bloodwolf wears little to nothing. She is nothing more than a savage animal, but more cunning than any beast, a mistress of the hunt and most vicious of all her kind. She is said to hunt both for flesh to eat and for sport. No one ever sees the Bloodwolf and lives.

 ===The Whitewolf===
-The Whitewolf has the fewest names among the Six, despite being one of the most commonly depicted. He is said to be a white werewolf with black claws and pale blue eyes. He wears an armband of feathers, necklaces of fangs, and other shamanistic ornaments. He is also sometimes depicted as a giant white wolf of the same coloration and appearance, said to appear to travelers lost in the frozen North and those who would dare hunt alone. He is the last thing they see.

 ===The Earthwolf===
-The Earthwolf, also called the Brownwolf, is said to be an earthen-brown werewolf with green eyes. He is usually shown wearing tattered cloth and is said to be a guardian of forests and animals. The Earthwolf is worshipped by some clans of [[Wood Elf|wood elves]], who call him the Forest Father and other such names, equating him with [[Cernunnos]]. He is sometimes depicted with antlers.

-There are some who believe that the Six do not actually exist. They say that references to werewolves of these particular colors are simply coincidental and could be referring to any large and powerful werewolves. Those who ''do'' believe the stories, however, say that the group consists of six werewolves, each of a different color and wielding different abilities. They appear in tales from throughout the ages, leading believers to speculate that they are either immortal or that members of the Six choose heirs upon whom they bestow all their power at death. Some werewolves have taken to venerating the Six, while others barely acknowledge their existence.
+The Six are some of the most mysterious, cursed beings of evil that walk the [[Midgard|mortal realm]]. They are werewolves, each of a different color and of different natures. Whatever one may believe about them, there remains a constant theme in tales throughout all history in all lands of werewolves bearing these particular colorations. The Six are said to be immortal or to pass their powers on at death, for they must always exist, though no one knows why that would be the case. Some of those infected with the curse of lycanthropy have taken to venerating the Six. However, most folk today barely acknowledge the existence of the Six or simply do not know about them at all. Some say the Six do not actually exist and they are only fairytales and allegories told for other purposes, that werewolves of these particular colors and appearances are coincidental and may refer to any variety of various large, powerful werewolves.
-==Powers==
-Though tales say that the Six are the only werewolves with the power to transform at will, they almost never appear in stories in their human form, leading some to believe they do not have one. As the Lords of the Werewolves, or archwerewolves, as some call them (some Old Achaean legends refer to them as archlycanthropes), a mere howl from one of the Six will exert a strong influence on a werewolf to transform and follow their leader: an urge that is as powerful as the full moon and impossible to resist. Both wolves and [[Vargs|vargs]] also answer this call.

-Legends have also claimed that the Six posses even more magical (mostly [[Elemental Magic|elemental]] and [[Spiritual Magic|spiritual]]) powers, and simply through direct eye contact, they can cause unimaginable fear or stare directly into the person's soul. Some even say that the Six can steal others' souls through eye contact. Obviously, there are many other claims about powers wielded by the Six, but it is unknown which of these powers - if any - are true.
