Description

Astral dogs come in multiple breeds just like regular dogs. Their bodies are made of cosmic energy and appear like that of the night sky. The older they get the more stars appear within their pelt. Some older ones even look as though they have miniature galaxies floating within them. Their eyes are completely one color and can give off a small glow. The main colors are white, blue, purple, and yellow. They can come in more colors, but are a lot more rare.

They can make great pets and companions, but they aren't necessarily for the faint of heart. Astral dogs have the ability to teleport... so you can see where it can cause some problems. To be an effective companion, whether on the battlefield by your side or cuddling on the couch at home, these canines need at least two things. First, you need to make a close bond with one. Second, they need at least some kind of training.
