Wolfgang Von Uberwald - Discworld Character Biography
Character Bio
Wolfgang von Überwald is a ruthless and sadistic werewolf, serving as a primary antagonist in 'The Fifth Elephant.' He embodies the darker side of werewolf nature, reveling in violence and chaos, and is driven by a desire for power and dominance. His significance lies in his role as a foil to the more civilized werewolves and as a catalyst for the political intrigue surrounding the Scone of Stone.
Physical Appearance
Wolfgang is a tall, imposing figure with a lean, muscular build that hints at his predatory nature. His hair is wild and unkempt, a stark white that contrasts with his piercing, icy blue eyes, which seem to glow with a feral intensity. In his human form, he often wears dark, practical clothing that allows for swift movement, but his attire is always slightly disheveled, as if he is perpetually on the brink of transformation. His features are sharp and angular, with a cruel, lupine quality that betrays his werewolf heritage, and his presence is marked by an unsettling, predatory grace.
