What it does

Wolf-Skin and the Moonless Wolf. Seize the throat of one foe in reach and shake: up to 1.2 s, 3 shakes 0.4 s apart, each power 0.7 (2.1 in all, a fresh HitSpec each) and 6 stagger. An S body is held, glued to your jaws (the grapple hold: not a stun, not the hold status) and can't act; you may drag it at 40 % pace. An M body isn't held: it is slowed 60 % and can't start an attack while gripped. L bodies, riders, sentries, structures and heroes (NPC wolfskins in a bout): one bite of power 1.4 instead. The grip breaks if you are stunned or knocked back, if you Bound, or if the foe is knocked away by anyone; the foe is unwedged on release.

Edge: Lockjaw

The hold lasts 1.2 -> 1.5 s (a fourth shake).
