A sand wolf is an elemental creature which dwells in the sandy deserts of elemental earth that drift to, or have been conjured on, the Plane of Air. Occasionally, these creatures seep through planar rifts or are summoned by elementalists on the Material Plane. Sand wolves are prized as guardians for their relative intelligence, keen perception, and ability to disguise themselves, easily blending with the shifting sands in desert terrain. Cunning and agile, they fiercely pursue any creatures they

WORKS WELL WITH

SniperLAND / AERIAL / SUBTERRANEANWhile this creature disrupts formation by moving freely through occupied spaces, a ranged partner can exploit the resulting scattered positioning.
SnareLAND / AERIAL / SUBTERRANEANA controller that isolates a single target lets this creature's enchanting effect resolve against a target with fewer allies able to break the save.
