Pelt of Amigen

Steel Realms

The Pelt of Amigen is a wolf pelt of a northern Pine Tribes shaman, an animist who worshiped Wheyipuh, great spirit of the wolf. This is the full pelt and head of a wolf, including muzzle which hangs over the brow. It fits no bigger than a smaller than human normal size – it will simply fall off those of larger stature. The pelt was used by Amigen to fight against the intruding civilized world upon the lands of the Pine Tribes in the forests of Rhyl. It was said to have been taken by conquerors and eventually lost fighting in the north, after the Lich Lords had taken control.
