* ConjoinedTwins: In a weird sort of way- the Gateguard's mutation started as this, with a [[GreekMythology Cerberus-like]] conglomeration of three heads, and got worse from there. One of the cliffhounds also seems to be this way, with a second "body" emerging from the first's back like a rider.

[[http://wolfpearl.deviantart.com/gallery/401612 Wurr]] is a webcomic by Finnish artist [=WolfPearl=], uploaded on {{deviantART}}.

The story opens with what looks to be a stereotypical plot--the dogs who live out in the world are good, and the hideous mutated hellhounds that live within the crater are evil. The jealous hellhounds envy the beautiful lands of the dogs, and a war breaks out. The righteous dogs triumph over the wicked hellhounds, and seal them away within the crater. However...

The real story begins with a pack of hellhounds, who are gathered by their leader Iacar to be told they're being evicted. Driven from their territory by another pack leader, Pyramos, they are forced to find new territory elsewhere- beyond the craggy borders of the crater. The comic follows the pack as they leave their home behind and venture out into the alien world of the dogs.

Notable for its amazing art, and the artist's amazing attention to anatomy and realistic (barring RuleOfCool) mutations with the hellhounds, along with the incredibly detailed backstory of the world. The first volume of the comic is now in print, [[NoExportForYou unfortunately only in Finnish]].

!!''{{Wurr}}'' provides examples of:
* ActionGirl: Surama.
* AlienSky: The sky in the Crater is covered in dark smoggy clouds. For the hellhounds, the normal blue sky is the alien one.
* AlternateUniverse: Where the story takes place. The world is inhabited by intelligent dogs in a rough equivalent of the Copper Age, and humans (and thus the types of dogs they breed) have never existed.
* ArmorPiercingSlap: [[http://wolfpearl.deviantart.com/art/Wurr-page-21-81331072 Pyramos does one with his tail.]]
* ArtShift: The comic's introduction is drawn in a simpler style, reminiscent of cave drawings.
* AxCrazy: Niftynose, who starts a fight in the middle of a (fairly) rational discussion by ''shooting lightning from his nose''.
* BeardOfEvil: Subverted by the original Iralbe.
* BerserkButton: Don't call Grimmon a wolf.
* BewareMyStingerTail: Pyramos has a long prehensile tail with a bone-blade at the tip, which he uses as an effective weapon.
* BigEater: Morri
* BigNo: Hafmar lets one loose when Iralbe informs them that Pyramos will take their territory.
* BodyHorror: The hellhounds have been exposed to mutating Black Touch for generations, resulting in strange mutations such as extra limbs, eyes, too many teeth, strange skeletal structures, and countless other strange features.
** The most mutated ones are called deepblooded and [[CantHaveSexEver are forbidden to breed]]. Even more grotesque are the cliffhounds, who live on the outer slopes of the Crater and guard it against intrusion.
* BRollRebus: Used a couple of times for comic effect.
** "[[hottip:Dog:(Azrabak)]] + Pack = Death; Iacar = No Death; Dog + Iacar = No Death?"
* CallASmeerpARabbit: All the prey animals (and cave beasts) in the Crater are so mutated it's a stretch to even call them rabbits or rats anymore.
* CantHaveSexEver: The deep-blooded are forbidden from mating; they are so heavily mutated that their mutations endanger the pups, [[DeathByChildbirth the mother,]] [[TraumaCongaLine or both]].
* ConjoinedTwins: In a weird sort of way- the Gateguard's mutation started as this, with a [[GreekMythology Cerberus-like]] conglomeration of three heads, and got worse from there. One of the cliffhounds also seems to be this way, with a second "body" emerging from the first's back like a rider.
* DarkIsNotEvil
* DisabilitySuperpower:
** Despite all of Crippled's weaknesses, he has excellent sonar-like hearing.
** Iralbe's heat vision.
* DrJerk: What little we see of the (original) Iralbe indicates him to be this.
* DontTryThisAtHome[=/=]DoNotAttempt: Poked fun at in the author's comments- "Warning, do not attempt to rob mutant chicken nests. It should only be attempted by trained professionals, idiots, or Surama."
* EveryoneWentToSchoolTogether: [[http://wolfpearl.deviantart.com/art/Unfinished-tale-of-Wurr-279909210 this]] bonus strip.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Crippled, who is...crippled.
* ExtraEyes: Iacar (above his normal left one), Morri (three pairs and [[ThirdEye seventh in the middle of his forehead]]), Niftynose (small ThirdEye),...
* EyelessFace: Iralbe.
* EyesDoNotBelongThere: Iralbe, again.
* EyesOfGold: Surama.
** GlowingEyesOfDoom

* FeatherFingers: Subverted- while the dogs don't have hands, they can move their paws in a way that their innermost toe acts as a thumb, with three fingers, better explained and illustrated [[http://wolfpearl.deviantart.com/gallery/27404590 here]].
* FightingForAHomeland: Or more accurately, searching, at least for now.
* FiveManBand:
** TheHero: Iacar
** TheLancer: Crippled
** TheSmartGuy: Iralbe
** TheBigGuy: Morri and Surama (Morri being physically big and powerful, while Surama is more of the aggressive DumbMuscle)
*** Well, not so much "dumb" as "mentally unstable."
** TheChick: Hafmar
** SixthRanger: Azrabak
* FunetikAksent: Iacar fpeaks with a lifp becaufe of hif large fangs.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: Frequently, usually involving Surama.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:

** NonhumansLackAttributes is constantly {{averted}}.
** A [[{{Multiboobage}} set of]] nude hellhound breasts [[http://wolfpearl.deviantart.com/art/Wurr-page-25-92909997 shows up in one panel.]]
* TheGhost: We're frequently told about the cave beasts, but never get to see them outside of ominous cave-drawings and shadows.
* GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger: One of Pyramos's many mutations lets him be very good at this.
* HandyHelper: Everyone (mostly Iacar) to Sinjal.
* {{Hellhound}}: While they are called hellhounds, they don't fill the usual roles. Instead, they are just large, heavily mutated dogs.
* HumansAreBastards: Intentionally averted- humans don't exist in the dogs' world.
* InsistentTerminology: Grimmon is ''not'' a wolf!
* LargeHam: Pyramos.
* TheMedic: Iralbe. In comic, this role is known as a "wounder."
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Hafmar, having two rows of sharp bottom teeth
* {{Mordor}}: The Crater, especially from the dogs' point of view.
* MutagenicGoo: Black Touch.
* NaturalWeapon: Pyramos's blade tail.
* NoBiologicalSex: The whispering ones (such as Iralbe and Riega) have no genitalia, and thus no sex. They're generally referred to in the masculine for simplicity's sake.
* NothingButSkinAndBones: Sinjal/Crippled, due to his severe disgestion problems.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Crippled's real name is Sinjal, but as Iacar couldn't say it right when they were pups, Sinjal got nicknamed Crippled. In the comic, he's only referred to as such.
* OurOrcsAreDifferent: WordOfGod states that the {{hellhound}}s are essencially the Blizzard variant [[FurriesAreEasierToDraw in animal form]].
* OutnumberedSibling: Surama has four brothers and no sisters, and three of them are older than her. The fourth is Hafmar.
* {{Partially Civilized Animal}}s
* PerpSweating: [[spoiler:Attempted by Surama on Azarabak]]
* PsychoElectro: Niftynose.
* SiblingRivalry: Surama and Hafmar.
** SiblingYinYang
* ShockAndAwe: Niftynose's mutation allowed him to draw electricity in and send out lightning bolts through the horn on his nose.
* ShownTheirWork: The amount of detail put into realistic anatomy and mutations is really quite incredible. At one point, the artist spends several paragraphs explaining that dog teeth are generally dull and meant to crush windpipes and major arteries, not cause huge blood splatters.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Surama is the only female in the pack. She '''isn't''' TheChick.
* UglyGuyHotWife: {{Inverted}} [[http://wolfpearl.deviantart.com/art/Wurr-character-design-78195663 by a couple of background characters.]] He looks like an elegant sighthound; she looks [[{{Gonk}} less like a canid than like a fuzzy hippo]].
* TheUnpronounceable: Azrabak's name apparently is this for the hounds. Cue the nickname "Bakbak".
* UnusualEuphemism: [[http://wolfpearl.deviantart.com/gallery/401612 Surama's "licking" obviously has some very ominous meaning.]]
* {{Xenofiction}}
