Freki and Geri were two Fenrisian Wolves, erstwhile escort of Leman Russ.
Freki and Geri were the wolfsiblings of Russ from the time after his advent on Fenris, where he was accommodated by a female Fenriswolf. Freki was hotheaded, in contrast to Geri, who was experienced and contemplative. Both, especially Geri were said to be very intelligent.
The age of the both wolves or of her mother can only be guessed, as Geri is described as "Age-old compared to the norm of his race".
