hound

The Hounds live in packs just beyond the entrance to the Kingdom, ruling the forest through aggression and territory. For generations, the Kingdom has attempted to domesticate them, but every effort has ended in failure. They are too wild, too territorial, and far too dangerous to be tamed.

Anything that ventures too close to their territory risks a deadly ambush. Those wise enough to travel into the woods never do so without a shield. The Hounds have become such a dominant force within the forest that the Archer keeps constant watch along the border, ensuring that none of them ever wander too close to the Kingdom's walls.
