When Wolf throws an item made of bone, a number of things happen, first the item that is being thrown seems to be covered in a ghostly manifestation of the creature that the bone the item as made of came from, the manifestation only lasts for a split second that it takes for wolf to launch the item. Second the animal Skull that Wolf is wearing seems to be come covered in runes, swirls and veins that all seem to glow with a ghostly blue light.
When a creature is given proper respect after being killed parts of it's spirit is left behind within the bones of the creature. Through a small ritual these spirits can be used to improve the item that is made with the bones but this process requires the use of a skull from an animal to function as a conduit between the item and the user. once this ritual is completed it gives the item a small amount of sapience for a split second while it is being used this allows the user to preform actions using the item that would normally be impossible. Sometimes if the user preforms the ritual poorly they can receive mental and physical deformities, but this issue can be fixed through greater skill in the ritual.
