The Direwolf (Gauntlet) is a mammal-type creature and a mission-specific variant of the standard Direwolf, appearing in the Genesis DLC's Gauntlet missions. It shares the Direwolf name tag with the base creature but is tracked separately by the game through its own entity ID, Direwolf_Character_BP_Gauntlet_C.
Admins working with Genesis server configurations or troubleshooting mission encounters should use this entity ID rather than the standard Direwolf's when targeting this variant specifically, for example, in SpawnDino commands or when adjusting spawn settings tied to Gauntlet content.
Because this variant is tied to structured mission gameplay, it is unlikely to appear outside of its intended Gauntlet context under normal server conditions. Keep that in mind if you are testing Genesis mission setups or reviewing creature spawn logs.
