Moon Dog is a creature appearing the Flanaess.
Moon dogs are celestials native to the Blessed Fields of Elysium.[1]
Description
Moon dogs resemble large dogs, about 3ft tall at the shoulder, with silvery fur and obsidian-black eyes. Moon dogs have opposable digits on their fronts paws that they can use as hands. Additionally, the face has some slight human characteristics.[1][2]
Personality
Moon dogs are relentless hunters of evil. Because of this, they rarely associate with anyone for long. They are generally friendly to other good creatures.[1][2]
Abilities
Moon dogs speak the languages of celestials and devils, as well as common. They can also use telepathy to communicate with creatures within 50 feet of them.[1]
Moon dogs possess a wide variety of abilities, including a few magical and spell-like ones. Among others, they can always detect evil, magic, traps, and see invisibility. By licking a wound, they can slow poison]], remove disease, or even Cure minor wounds.[1][2]
Moon dogs can dispel illusions by whining. By barking, a moon dog can dispel evil. When one bayed, it instills fear in all evil creatures within 80 feet of it. And when a moon dog howls, all evil creatures within 40 feet of it are damaged and possibly dismissed. If more than one moon dog is howling, the dismissal effect is that much harder to resist.[1]
