This drake-like breed of hound is no man's best friend. Vicious killing streaks by roving packs have ravaged many an unprepared outlying community. In addition to its willingness to fight to the death if food (or edible creatures, such as livestock or children) is present, this pseudo-mutt can breath a cloud (4') of noxious gas which carries a PARALYZING effect. A save versus either Breath Weapon or Paralysis is allowed. A failed save indicates the vistim is rendered unconscious for 3 rounds, and then paralysed for up to 24 hours minus that victim's constitution score. At the end of this time, a System Shock percentage must be rolled or he will sieze for another 1-6 turns or until CURED, and then perish.
