I made one with without a reference.
I hope it somehow looks exactly like a wolf warrior.
This would be an intresting unit to have.

We could also add rage as endru said.
+3 attack
- 2 hitpoints
Per use.

Aura range: 3

Then no aura
This instead will be Celtic/Primitive warrior

it is not shield barier, why does it have 2/1 armor? its too much...1/0 and a 2 turn unit, so it would be balanced
also, i dont like high bonuses vs buildings, its a primitive warrior, times when structures were not made of stone...
so it would be pretty similar to celtic warrior, 2 actions, low hp...
this would have 1/0 armor (is my suggestion) also, it is faster...but lower attack...maybe high bonus v foot archers and low bonus against foot melee

Well maori warrior which has no armor has 2/1 armor and costs 3.
Okat I'll change it

It somehow needs to counter building so I stayed the buildings bonus there.
Fortified and mega structure bonuses are erased
Maybe a bonus to elephants? Viking berserk with an axe has high bonus to elephants.

If you'll look at original topic it was mentioned on -
Berserker redesign - it was supposed to be something similar to berserk, but related to wolf instead of bear. Right now I am in the middle of quite huge update pack, which includes berserker rebalance:
Berserk power 20->7 (heal ability was removed earlier as a bug), his ability has additional +13 power, +1 power range (area attack), +200% mental resistance, +100% hp, but -100% bonus healing (cannot be healed in berserk state), -2 sight. Additionally he is healed by coming into berserk state (+10 hp heal). Ability lasts 4 turns and has 7 turn cooldown.
Looking at that and trying to make wolf warrior 3 turns I would make stats:
17 hp
1/1 armor (dodge - armor doesn't really need to represent real armor - it's just amount of power reduced from attacks each time, so something stable - really strong armor, ability to dodge thanks to training etc.)
7 power
3 speed
100% mental resistance
and ability Rage 4 turns, 7 cooldown:
+3 power
+1 action
+1 speed
+3/3 armor
-100% bonus healing
+200% mental resistance
-1 sight
and similarly 10 hp heal effect on use.

Tell me if it's OK.

I think the right arm is too white and bulky compared to the left arm.
I changed things if you don't mind
+ More muscles
+ Shoes change
+ Shading

I love using berserker as main heavy unit,the rebalance seems good!

Berserker has:
+200% on elephants (that one will have to change to something equally exotic in wolf warrior case)
+50% vs structures, siege machines and ships
+100% vs armored siege machines and fortifications
+350% vs mega buildings

A lot.
Don't worry - you won't be disappointed by lack of your proposed units/ made graphics.
By their changed stats - maybe.

Berzerkers are Bear warriors
While wolf warriors are
The frenzy warriors wearing the skins of wolves were called Úlfhéðnar ("wolf coat"; singular Úlfheðinn), another term associated with berserkers

The Ulfhednar were a group of Viking warriors who originated from ancient Norse religious rites. The Ulfhednar wore wolf skins, and their own skin was black-died. ... Unlike normal berserkers, these warriors wielded no shields.

I mean add the nordic category since I play by faction , and my most used faction is nordic and roman as second.

And possibly celtic as 3rd even though 2 Celts are only there I use Highlander and celtic warrior because those 2 warriors are strong and very useful especially a well-fed highlander on late game. I use them in campaign's and skirmish maps .

I made him privitive only to avoid too much tech bonuses. When real cultures (like AoF races) will be used - he'll be available to them.
