Wolf Raider

Wolf raiders are orc cavaliers that specialize in riding on powerful wargs. Where some cavaliers are simply skilled with horses or well-trained knights, the wolf raider is skilled with wargs and are used as the cavalry of the various orc tribes. This is a variant of the Beast Rider archetype. All applies except for below:

Armor Proficiency: A wolf raider is proficient with light and medium armor, and with shields (with the exception of tower shields).

Warg Mount: At 1st level, a wolf raider forms a bond with a strong, loyal warg that permits him to ride it as a mount. This warg functions as a druid's animal companion, using the beast rider’s level as his effective druid level. The wolf raider does not take an armor check penalty on Ride checks while riding his mount. The mount is always considered combat trained, and begins play with Endurance as a bonus feat. A wolf raider’s mount does not gain the share spells special ability.

This ability replaces the standard cavalier's mount and expert trainer abilities.
