Ecology
Yeth Hound is a creature of the Feywild, bound to seasonal cycles, oaths, and the strange logic of fey courts. It is most often found in forest regions. It is large-sized, which shapes how it hunts, hides, or fights.
Behaviour
Yeth Hound is governed by oaths, bargains, and a sense of beauty alien to mortals. Its alignment varies by individual or is irrelevant — it acts on instinct, drive, or whoever commands it. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember.
Origin
Yeth Hound is reprinted in Monsters of the Multiverse and expanded in Volo's Guide to Monsters. Fey trace to the Feywild and the eternal courts of the seasons — the Seelie and Unseelie, or older powers. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
