A Hexenwolf (or Hexenwulf, pl. Hexenwulfen) is a person transformed or being able to transform into a wolf-like beast through the employment of a magical talisman provided by another being. It is one form of lupine theriomorph. Another name mentioned for them by Bob is "Spell wolf". The name "Hexenwolf" / "Hexenwulf" seems to be of Germanic origin, and from contemporary German would translate to "witch-wolf" or "witches' wolf".
