These brown and yellowish creatures are as intelligent as normal humans and have a fairly complex language consisting of barks, yaps, whines and growls. They are also able to use a limited form of teleportation (the blink). In attacking, pack members will blink in and out in a random fashion at random intervals, teleporting individuals having a 75% chance of appearing behind the opponent. An individual will teleport on a score of 7 or better on a 12-sided die. Roll again to determine where the blink dog teleporting reappears: 1= in front of opponent, 2= shielded (or left) front flank, 3= unshielded (or right) front flank, 4-12= behind. When blinking in the creature will be from 1'-3' from the opponent and immediately able to attack. Blinking is an inborn instinct, and it never allows the animal to reappear in a space already occupied by a solid object. If seriously threatened (or if 25% or greater loss has been sustained) the entire pack will blink out and not return. There is a great enmity between blink dogs and displacer beasts (qv) and the two creatures will always attack each other. If encountered in their lair there is a 50% chance that there will be from 3-12 pups (1-2 hit dice, 1-2/1-3 hit points damage/attack). These young are worth from 1,000 to 2,000 gold pieces on the market as they can be tamed and trained.
