The domestic animals of the Slann are reptilian creatures such as the various species of Cold One. Larger Cold Ones fulfil the roles of horses, beasts of burden, and cattle, whilst smaller species serve as hunting animals and domestic pets. The Cold One Warhound is the largest and most fiercesome of this lesser breed. Warhounds are aggressive pack creatures. They respond well to the tuteleage of Slann or Lizardmen handlers, but cannot be tamed by warm-blooded races.
Physique[]
The Warhound is an ugly, alligator-like animal with a coarse, scaly skin and menacing pointed teeth.
Alignment[]
Psychological Traits[]
Like larger Cold Ones, Warhounds are subject to stupidity until making their first attack. Warhounds are sluggish creatures and must be whipped into a fury by their handlers (via a Ld test); once this enthusiasm is engaged, they are almost impossible to stop, even attacking the nearest friendly creatures if there are no enemies to be found.
Special Rules[]
Cold One Warhounds have two bite attacks. Their very strong, muscular jaws allow them to ignore 1 armour point when they bite. They have a particularly thick hide that gives them 2 armour points on all locations. Like Cold Ones and Troglodytes, Warhounds also emit a horrible stench that causes any foe attacking them from close range to do so at -10% WS.
