Alvari Gloomwolf is an old Space Wolves Rune Priest, who took part in the Chapter's feast after their victory in the Javarian Sub-sector, against an Ork Waaagh!.[1]

However, Gloomwolf had been stricken with visions that left him living up to his name, while the Space Wolves celebrated. This was noticed by Gillir Thunderstone, who loudly asked why Gloomwolf was not joining them in their victory feast. When the Rune Priest stated they had nothing to celebrate, Thunderstone became enraged, as he felt Gloomwolf was insulting the Space Wolves who had died in the battle. Gloomwolf apologized to Thunderstone and told the Great Wolf Grimnar, who had been watching the exchange, that his visions were troubling him. This was a night to celebrate their victory, though, and Gloomwolf said he would explain his visions later, instead of ruining the mood. The Rune Priest did not feel like partaking in the celebration, however, and Gloomwolf began to leave the feast hall. Even as he did so, though, Thunderstone continued to pelt Gloomwolf with insults, which led the enraged Rune Priest to yell out his vision. Gloomwolf stated that the victory in the Javarian Sub-sector meaningless as, even as the Space Wolves feasted, the King of the Orks was calling his kind to him. The King would soon gather a massive Waaagh! that would lead to the deaths of billions. It would sweep aside everything that stood against the Orks, but a Black Wolf was destined to appear and draw blood from the Ork King. The two would then clash, until they were both at the edge of death. With his vision told, Gloomwolf then stormed out of the feast hall. After the Rune Priest left, though, the Great Wolf Grimnar immediately ordered that the Wolf Lord Ragnar Blackmane be found; as he had no doubt, that Ragnar was the Black Wolf that was shown in Gloomwolf's vision.[1]
