Description
Not technically werewolves - but great big giant monster wolves, so I hope it's still okay to upload these
They're figures from Norse mythology; they chase the sun and the moon, respectively, and will swallow their celestial prey come Ragnorak (Armageddon). Skoll is Norse for "skull", Hati means "hate", I decided for a very literal approach.

All the materials I've read say that Skoll means "Scorn", which matches his/her sibling's name being "Hate". This mirrors how other paired beasts, like Odin's wolves and ravens, have paired names, like Thought and Memory.

I'm pretty sure that Skoll means "trechery" or "repulsion" in the old Norse.
