Sod Hound

Creature 3 — earth, elemental

Sod hounds are mossy extraplanar canines formed of packed dirt and pebbles. On their native plane, they are often tasked with guarding less secure sites and finding mineral deposits. Others live in the comparative lap of luxury as pets to jabalis. Earth elementals make excellent bodyguards for adventuresome spelunkers and are ideal protectors of important subterranean locations such as vaults and treasuries.
