Hell hound

In SLASH'EM, a hell hound d is a monster associated with fire. It might be most familiar as the pet of a Flame Mage, after it grows from a hell hound pup.

The SLASH'EM database describes hell hounds this way:


 * "Hell hounds are fire-breathing canines from another plane of existence brought here in the service of evil beings. A hell hound resembles a large hound with rust-red or red-brown fur, and red, glowing eyes. The markings, teeth, and tongue are soot black.  It stands two to three feet high at the shoulder and has a distinct odour of smoke and sulphur.  The baying sounds it makes have an eerie, hollow tone that sends a shiver through any who hear them."
