A shadow wolf is a monster added in SLASH'EM. Its attacks can do cold damage, and it is somewhat fast.

Strategy

Shadow wolves are slightly slower and weaker versions of mist wolves. They can be a threat if you lack cold resistance, but are otherwise unremarkable for when they appear.

Encyclopedia entry

This evil creature (_canis tenebrous_) lurks in the darker, more
        sinister corners of the world. Its bite is known for its chilling
        effect upon humanoid flesh, and it is not a tameable animal.
