Animal Imitation

Learn from the fox, the owl and the boar: gain their skills.

Barbarian tribes believed fervently in the power of nature, especially that of wild beasts. By wearing wolf, bear or boar skins warriors could channel their power, be it speed, strength, or ferocity, in the heat of battle. Having a shared association with specific animals may also have created a brotherhood amongst warriors, who in effect became a pack. The Germanic tribes were known for their association with wolves, and wolf-warriors are even shown fighting as part of the Roman army on Trajan’s column in Rome.
