The Wolf Bout is Blanca's sidequest. At the beginning of the game, Ernest introduces him to the contest. He gets a card. Each defeated wolf leaves a pawprint. Ultimately Blanca gets a new or upgraded Manifestation. After three pawprints fill up one row, Blanca can return to Ernest to get a special prize.

Element: Earth
Found in: Sapientes Gladio Italian Headquarters, after beating Janus
Quotes:
(Before fighting): They used to call me "the old tiger." I won't go down easily, you know!

Note: Philippe's Physical Attack induces Mental Break, which will damage Blanca's MP over time.

Maya, Mash, and Martega[]
Elements: Light, Wind, and Dark
Found in: Domremy, talk to one of the villagers and head back into the surrounding forest
