Other Abilities / Powers / Notes:

  1. Blink Dogs are Canine Monsters.
  2. Can Blink at will, as innate ability, up to 60' no disorientation time. May stay "phased out" for up to 6 seconds, but must pre-determine this. They blink by blinking eyes, hence the name. Cannot carry passengers, this is just a personal ability. If the dog blinks into the same position as a solid object, it appears as close to its destination as it can. Always arrives facing in same direction as it left.
  3. Great enmity with Displacer Beasts.
