Grim Dog Studios Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Hi all, just starting a heresy-era wolves force and was just wanting to know if there is anymore Wolf Lords and their respective great companies at the time of the heresy mentioned anywhere? So far all I've managed to get is: Onn (1st company) is lead by Gunnar Gunnhilt, Tra (3rd company) is lead by Ogvai Ogvai Helmschrot, Fyf (5th company) is lead by Amlodhi Skarssen Skarssenson, and finally the 13th company (not sure on what its called in Space Wolf numbers) unless I'm mistaken is lead by Lord Bulveye in some sources, both the short story in Tales of Heresy and the Ragnar novel Wolf's Honour, but in the current SW codex it states the 13th was lead by Jorin Bloodhowl, so not sure about this one! Just want to know so I can decided what company they will be and to write a little homegrown fluff! Thanks for looking! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280386-heresy-era-wolf-lordsgreat-companies/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerian Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 The 13th Company was actually led by Jorin Bloodfang, they screwed it up in the 5e codex.

Logan230 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 There is a short story with Bulveye as the Lord during the Heresy. It is the short story "Wolf at the Door" by Mike Lee in the Tales of Heresy anthology. There has never been a concrete answer on whether Jorin or Bulveye are the correct Lords, but considering HH says Bulveye, the Ragnar books say Bulveye, and Valerian has this short on Jorin. I think it has been retconned. Since that saga is notoriously incomplete. It is possible that the 13th was reformed multiple times.

Valerian Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 It's not a retcon; Black Library authors have gone with Bulvye, while Studio authors have always stuck with Jorin in WD articles and codices (including our 5e codex).

Grim Dog Studios Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 It will be interesting to see what FW does with this in the Inferno book.

V Depending on how the Great Companies were like or how FW will organize the sixth legion formation maybe they can incorporate both characters to make sense with the current 40k fluff?! maybe they'll have Jorin watch over or be jarl of the wulfen packs while Bulvye leads the actual men of the thirteenth.
