Monster Trove for Seasoned Adventurers
Counterspell Hound
Medium
About
A lean silver hound bred by mage-killers to bark spellforms apart before they finish. It circles a fight nose-up, scenting for the caster and ignoring the swords entirely. The instant a spell goes off nearby it answers with a shattering bark that can rip the magic to pieces mid-word.
