Attack Dog

An attack dog is a big toothy quadruped. It only has one "hand", its mouth, and gets +2 damage with unarmed attacks that use that hand, as well as +1 damage with other unarmed or weapon attacks. They have an impressive sense of scent, and can track scents up to 10 hours old while not running. Breaks in the scent trail of more than 2 meters require the attack dog to find the scent again; breaks include running water, very strong other scents, and regions that were burned or rained on after the trail was created.

Attack dogs are not particularly smart, and can only speak Wolf languages.

Advancement

The Attack Dog may be given up to two abilities, from different categories, for 3 points each.

Dire (6 points): The Attack Dog gets a +2 Factor Bonus to Perception, a +4 factor bonus to Attack, can track scents while running, and doesn't lose the scent for breaks less than 5 meters. The Attack Dog's unarmed attacks knock the target prone on a successful wound.

Man's Best Friend (6 points): The Attack Dog gets +2 to Insight, a +2 factor bonus to Will, a +4 factor bonus to Attack, and can form a one-way telepathic bond with a creature as a standard action. That creature can project images and commands into the Attack Dog's mind as a cheap action. The telepathic bond wears off after 1 day.
