Stalkerhounds are a tall and lean breed of Dog, that has a strong senses of smell.[1]

Description

The breed is owned by some Imperial Knight Nobles on Dominion, where they act as hunting Dogs which flush out prey for their masters to shoot. In this capacity, a Noble will own a pack of Stalkerhounds, who view their owner as their packmaster. During these hunts in Dominon's wilds, however, there is a chance that some will not back down when commanded to, after confronting dangerous creatures such as Ursids. This will then likely result in the Stalkerhound's death at the prey's hands. Also, disguised Callidus must be cautious around the breed if the Assassins are masquerading as someone the Stalkerhounds are familiar with. Some have such a strong sense of smell, that they can sense the Callidus smells differently than the person the Assassin is disguised as. This can then cause the Stalkerhounds to begin growling at the Callidus.[1]
