Feral Blink Dogs
While blink dogs are known for their goodness, it is not true that all blink dogs embrace the righteousness common to their kind. A rare few, almost all of whom live solitary lives, embrace Chaos, falling under the sway of the sole wicked deity in the blink dog pantheon.
Blink Dog Deities, Continued
Almost all blink dogs honor the father and mother of their kind, Bupgau and Ghavau, as well as those deities’ son, Vufhaf. Ghavau, mother of all blink dogs, has an elder sister called Gav. Bupgau spurned Gav in favor of Ghavau, and Gav vowed revenge. She whines and whimpers in the mind’s ears, urging blink dogs to reject the pack. Few blink dogs listen to Gav, but those who do become feral and monstrous.
Gav appears as an emaciated blink dog at least twice as large as normal. Her fur is sparse, and her flesh is scabrous. Her lipless jaws ceaselessly drool venom, and her ragged claws blacken the ground where she walks. Gav represents madness, cruelty, and vengeance.

A feral blink dog appears as a larger, wilder member of its species. Its fangs drip with saliva, and its claws are obviously dangerous, being curved more like a raptor’s talons than the nails of a dog. Both highly intelligent and wicked, a feral blink dog as the same teleportational ability common to its kind. When attacking, it “blinks” close to an enemy, attacks, and then reappears 10 to 40 feet away. If it has the initiative, it can attack without risking a counterattack by “blinking” away. Its instincts prevent teleportational mishaps. A feral blink dog’s bite causes suppurating wounds. Half of the damage caused by its bite cannot be healed by either natural or magical means unless the victim first receives a Cure Disease.
