Traits

Exceptional Hearing and Smell. The warhound has a +10 bonus to Wisdom (Perception) checks made with hearing or smell.

Improved Critical. The warhound's attacks are a critical hit when they roll a 19 or 20.

Powerful Leap. The warhound's long jump is up to 10 feet and their high jump is up to 5 feet if they spend 5 feet of movement beforehand.

Spiked Armor. A creature that touches the warhound or hits them with an attack while within 5 feet takes 2 (1d4) Piercing damage.

Infected Wounds. A creature hit with a Bite attack who does not receive healing in one minute must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failure, the creature's wound refuses to stop bleeding, and they cannot restore the hit points lost from a warhound's Bite using a Short or Long Rest until healed with a spell, magic item, or magical effect that restores hit points. Every day a creature is not healed in this way, they take an additional 1 (1d4 - 1) Poison damage, which likewise cannot be regained on a Short or Long Rest.

The warhound can hold one item at a time in their jaws, and cannot make another Bite attack while holding an item.

Leap. The warhound jumps into a creature's space within 10 feet, forcing a Medium or smaller creature to succeed a DC 12 Strength saving throw or fall Prone. The warhound must expend 5 feet of movement before each Leap.
