White Wolves

Identity: Raiding, smuggling, and mobility
Flag symbolism: Wolf and slash.
Core values: Raiders · Smuggling · Mobility.

The White Wolves are a loose confederation of raider gangs, deserters, smugglers, and mercenaries traveling in modified locomotives, snow crawlers, and salvaged vehicles.

Ambition: Control profitable supply routes without becoming dependent on any government.

Weakness: Fuel, embers, and spare parts are difficult to obtain without stealing or trading.

Transit network: Uses forgotten tracks, disused sidings, and poorly guarded junctions to ambush cargo.

Not every Wolf is a ruthless killer. Some crews protect settlements for payment, escort trains, or trade stolen technology. Others leave entire stations stripped bare.

Story hooks

• A shipment of embers fails to arrive at a station the faction depends on.
• A recovered component from the Great Forge could shift the balance of power.
• A railway junction becomes contested, forcing the faction to choose between negotiation and force.
