I am putting together a DnD adventure in WoT for my DnD Group. A couple of them have read the books but I started everyone in Faerun and have a Campaign crossing many interesting worlds planned - so they have no idea where they are going. One guy wants an animal companion - so I am using that as an opportunity to create some drama for his character and he is becoming a Wolfbrother. I also intend for the group to have a nasty run in with a Gholam (where the idea is for them to just survive the encounter and chase the Gholam away with silver, as Mat did).

 

The adventure is set near the end of The Breaking as its time period.

 

Anyway, I'd like to have the wolves warn the new Wolfbrother of the approach of the Gholam - but I have never seen a Wolf name for Gholam.

 

Anyone got any good ideas? I was thinking maybe "Empty One"?

I think Empty One is an excellent idea for a Wolf name. 

it seems wolves give names to things they had frequent encounters with.  not sure if that applied to gholam.

She-Hunter springs to mind, along with another question...what did wolves call Gray Men?  Empty Ones seems a better fit for a gray man.

wolves' name for gray men is Notdead.  http://encyclopaedia-wot.org/creatures/wolves/index.html

The Bloodless?

 

(I think Empty One is nice, but that it's a more fitting name for the Dark One or the Zomaran)

Wow, seeing that it popped right into my head.  I can't believe I forgot that!
