Rarity: Common Disposition: Skittish, unaggressive
Woolies are somewhat charming and somewhat eerie - resembling bipedal lambs with fluffy tails and dexterous paws instead of hooves, it's unsure whether they are a peculiar breed of sheep, forest spirits, or something entirely different. It's hard to deny in any case that they're rather cute.
Woolies can be consistently encountered all year long, and are desired for their fantastically soft and snuggly Wooly Fleece - the trouble with obtaining said fleece is finding a Wooly who will cooperate with having it clipped. The truth is that Wooly enjoy being sheared - it refreshes them! The creatures normally bounce off into the woods when approached - but if you can get one to let its guard down long enough to hold it still for shearing, perhaps with a healthy offering of fresh-cut feed grass, it may just allow itself to be taken home.
The big silver-and-brown deer called Alintlers are prized for the wide, silvery antlers on both sexes referred to as Alintler horns (for ease of pronunciation compared to "Alintler antlers"), which they shed semiannually and sell for anywhere from 10,000G to 20,000G a horn depending on the size and sturdiness - which means that the value of a year's worth of horns shed by a single fully-grown and healthy Alintler can be as much as 80,000G!
The quality of an Alintler's horns is generally directly influenced by its diet - Alintlers seem to have an ability to detect sources of significant amounts of Rune, and prefer to feed on plants growing from Rune-rich patches of soil, and such. If you're interested in farming Alintler horn, attempting to catch an Alintler or tame it by force will get you nowhere - it'll only run away, before or after giving you a charge or buck. However, offering it a source of quality Rune may win it over.
The dun-brown wolves in the woods on northern Cape Beryl are not much to be afraid of - they're on the small side, about the size of a big adult husky, and eat small animals; and even in groups, will normally choose to chase or jump on and push intruders. They're not likely to take a snap at anyone who doesn't go out of their way to aggress them, and are much more of a threat to livestock and pets than to people (take particular caution if you keep Woolies!).
In fact, the more fellows Wood Wolves have with them, the more hostile they become - they're highly protective of their packs, and are anxious and vulnerable alone. A Wood Wolf would likely make a good pet for the assertive, active, and hardy, and one feeling the discomfort of being alone without a pack may be willing to make a human friend.
