Today Rukari from ultra-combo posted a very juicy and detailed backstory to Sabrewulf. How did he become a werewolf? Find out that and more by reading below!
Born into a venerable and aristocratic German family, Baron Konrad von Sabrewulf was a well-educated but idle man, prone to addiction and vice. After inheriting the family’s castle from his ailing parents, he discovered a secret chamber and laboratory holding the relics of the Night Guard: an ancient order dedicated to the hunting of nefarious monsters. The Sabrewulf clan, Konrad gleaned from family lore, was responsible for wiping out the werewolves across most of Europe.
Drunkenly fumbling through the hidden archives one day, he accidentally cut himself on one of the family’s many trophies: A mounted claw of a giant wolf. Unknown to Konrad at the time, the paw was from a werewolf, its power to pass on the curse still dormant within the severed limb.
On the next full moon, Konrad transformed into a deranged werewolf, becoming one of the very beasts that his family hunted for generations. Still addicted to various drugs, but now with the power and rage of a feral beast inside him, Sabre destroyed most of his own castle, driving his servants away and isolating himself within the half-ruined estate.
On returning to human form, Konrad discovered that any hope of a cure had been obliterated by his own fits of rage and destruction. Desperately, he pieced together the remnants of his family’s work and began experimenting on himself, trying to break the curse and return him to normalcy. This drove him further and further into heavy opiate use, fits of rage, and madness. He became more wolf than man.
As the rumors of a dark creature spread beyond the isolated villages near his estate, Ultratech took notice. Lured from his home with the promise of a scientific cure, Ultratech experimented on and attempted to weaponize Sabrewulf, replacing his arms with cybernetics and extending his transformations until the cycle was reversed; the man barely materialized, the beast ran wild.

Breaking free of Ultratech’s control after being thrown into an early Killer Instinct tournament, Sabrewulf returned to his castle, ripped the cybernetics from his body, and regenerated through the use of potions and arcane sciences gleaned from decades of study, and the remaining relics his family held in such high regard.For a time he gained control of his lycanthropy, but the lure of the wolf haunted him and drew him back again like an addiction. The monster still remained and his ability to revert to human form was short-lived. Sabrewulf knows that unless he can find a more permanent solution, his agony will continue, and he will be cut off from the world and any hope of being a man again.
Having spent much time at the mercy of his wild side, Sabrewulf has learned that being a predator is often as much about patience as it is power. He is learning new ways to pounce on and surprise his many enemies.
If you are enjoying these backstories the Killer Instinct crew at ultra-combo will be posting another next week!

I thought his name was Victor Von Sabrewulf!
Ludwig actually and it appears that Microsoft Game Studios decided to change Sabrewulf’s given first name to Konrad instead 😛
@Adan Cody

Excllent article
And then, saberwolf was forced to make out with Sonic on a pile of chaos emeralds…. Oh man, these back stories keep getting better! Deviant art worthy indeed.
Really neat and great backstory on Sabrewulf 🙂
Sabrewulf’s NEW UPDATED backstory, that is 😉
Learning new ways to pounce and surprise his prey? With an emphasis on patience?
Future s3 buff/change to his instinct? Oooh I can’t wait.
What if he gets a special instinct only command grab that lets him pounce across the stage(but where would the patience come in?), or a counter attack like hisako? Hmmm so many possibilities
Cool back story. Can’t wait to hear about Hinamatoom’s AKA Thunder the most!
Very awesome back story
No shago or Kim Wu news? good lord, whats taking them so long? I been waiting for 2 and a half months! The wait is killing me!
@maximumfist
Adam is working on his Ultra Combo right now so I expect that he’ll be playable this month for Halloween or Friday the 30th. This is just my guess though. As for Kim Wu news, I wouldn’t expect much at this time since IG is probably going to talk more about it early next year or after the last 2 SFV characters are revealed.
