It needs a proper name for the Avatar world... But as it's a big wolf, for now I'm just calling it a Dire Wolf.

For Southern Wolf, I need to tell the story of how Sokka got the title, and I'm using the Inuit legend of Amarok: a giant spirit wolf said to hunt down and devour anyone foolish enough to hunt alone at night. I'm guessing Amarok is the wolf here: [link]
The one drawn here isn't specifically Amarok, but a legendary monster said to be descended from Amarok.

I didn't color the wolf, but its supposed to be brown too. The guy standing next to it is meant to be Sokka wearing the fur of one. Well, at least part of the fur, it's huge.

Wow!! That thing is sweet looking! Well, really it looks kinda evil, but the drawing is amazing! <<That makes more sense>> Sokka must be very warm in all that fur. I would probably keep one of those as a pet, but it may eat some of my kitties. Maybe even my dogs. >< Cool pic!

Hell of a design, hon... I like the fact it's got all that fur on the legs and forward body. Very cool work!

I have no talent, have a dorky user name and have lots of expensive drawing equipment... what could possibly go wrong??
:iconproblematic:
The design of the dire wolf is friggin cool! The anatomy and design is great on it's own, but it also looks like it could fit right into the Avatarverse. :D
:iconyunosh:
