Wolf is one of the main protagonists in the Stephen King book The Talisman. He is a werewolf, and Jack Sawyer's best friend and companion through much of the book. Despite his size, he is normally a gentle giant unless someone threatens Jack. When he and Jack are held prisoner in the Sunlight Home for wayward boys, both of them are persistantly bullied by the boys there. After Wolf is put in "The Box" as punishment, he transforms and rampages through the Sunlight Home, killing several boys before being shot by Sonny Singer, who was aiming for Jack. He then dies in Jack's arms.
