A typical hell hound st<strong>and</strong>s 4–5<br />

feet tall at the shoulder <strong>and</strong><br />

weighs 120 pounds. Efficient<br />

hunters, a favorite pack tactic is<br />

to surround prey quietly, then<br />

attack with one or two hounds,<br />

driving prey toward the rest of<br />

the pack with their fiery breath.<br />

If the prey doesn’t run, the pack<br />

closes in. Hell hounds track<br />

f leeing creatures relentlessly.<br />

Hell hounds are particularly<br />

favored by fire giants, as the<br />

creatures are immune to fire<br />

<strong>and</strong> share the fire giant’s sense<br />

of cruelty when it comes to<br />

h<strong>and</strong>ling intruders. Only when<br />

a fire giant goes too far toward<br />

treating a relatively intelligent hell<br />

hound like a pet do such alliances<br />

begin to falter.<br />

Harpy–Hell Hound<br />

This creature resembles a powerfully built wolf the size of a large<br />

draft horse, with ebony fur <strong>and</strong> burning, fiery red eyes.<br />

Asmodeus, the Prince<br />

of Darkness, keeps vast<br />

kennels of these brutal<br />

warhounds beneath his<br />

palace in Nessus. All<br />

are fitted with shirts of<br />

fire-scorched barding,<br />

<strong>and</strong> the loyal beasts obey<br />

their master perfectly.<br />

Nessian warhounds<br />

are tireless <strong>and</strong> relentless<br />

trackers, pursuing enemies of<br />

Asmodeus to the far corners of Hell <strong>and</strong><br />

beyond. Once Asmodeus sets them to a task,<br />

they do not quit until either the task is complete<br />

or they are dead. They are fearsome, snarling<br />

horrors in combat.<br />
