In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy roleplaying game, the worg is a wolf-like magical beast.

Description

The worg is a larger, more intelligent, and demonic version of the wolf, with a fiendish, demonic countenance and glowing eyes.

Worgs, despite the higher intelligence and demonic traits, tend to behave, for the most part, like regular wolves. They stalk around in dark forests and gloomy plains, hunting in packs (though they are also sometimes solitary). Lone worgs tend to hunt creatures smaller than themselves, while packs hunt large game. They attack with their teeth, and also have the benefit of stealth and keen senses. Worgs bring gloom and menace wherever they go, and are said to have connections with demons.

Worgs are sometimes enslaved by orcs, goblins, and other such creatures to act as mounts, and as attack dogs. Sometimes they are specifically bred for these purposes.

Worgs, unlike most animalistic creatures, can speak. They can speak both Common and Goblin, as well as a language of their own.

They are neutral evil in alignment.
