Appearance
Rufina is a large wolf, she has grey fur.

Personality
After being 'befriended' by Broken Fang, she was reluctantly helpful towards him, calming her two wolf friends. She cares about self-preservation, not afraid to back out on a deal to protect herself from danger.

She's respectful towards people who are kind and fare but still maintains her tough exterior. It's possible she's the alpha out of the three wolves, as she spoke for the other two wolves while dealing with Fang and also split up his offering amongst them.

Background
Not much is known about Rufina's background, all that's known is that she was one of the imprisoned guard wolves for Klarg in Cragmaw Hideout.

Cragmaw Hideout
She was discovered by Fang and his party at Cragmaw Hideout, she was chained with two other wolves to a stalagmite. Fang used Speak with Animals on Rufina, asking her for information about the cave and about a possible distraction. She calmed down her two wolf friends and agreed to help Fang and his party create a distraction. Fang stayed back with Rufina and the wolves, waiting for a signal from Zagush. When Zagush yelled 'Summon Monster', Fang decided to free Rufina and her friends from the chains. Her two friends ditched Fang even after agreeing to help him, but she remained and followed Fang to his friends. The Goblins let a flood into the caves, Rufina instantly running the other way, leaving Fang and his party to fend for themselves.

A few hours later, Fang and his party left the hideout. Fang brought two Goblin corpses as a peace offering to let them pass with trouble. Rufina at first worried, went up to the bodies and split them between her and her friends. This was the last time Rufina was seen.

Broken Fang
Broken Fang and Rufina had mixed feelings about each other. Fang ignored his distrusting nature and believed wholeheartedly that she would have his back. After Fang let her free from her chains, decided to help Fang find Sildar. Though unexpectantly Goblins flooded the tunnel into the cave, Rufina leaving Fang's side and running for the exit. This permanently damaged their relationship, as well as adding onto Fang's preexisting trust problems. After Fang fought Klarg, he exited the cave holding two dead goblins, giving them to Rufina and her friends. Rufina was grateful that Fang freed her, but he was disappointed that she left him. The last expression she saw from Fang was disappointment and sadness Their last encounter was speechless.
