This spell conjures a hunting dog to be a helper and boon companion to the casting wizard. The conjured dog is very loyal to the wizard, and will fight for him if the need arises. The creature is intelligent, as dogs go, and can understand simple verbal commands so long as they are nothing more than a couple of words and relatively simple. Hounds summoned by this spell are capable of hunting and tracking, and are skilled enough at it that they can usually hunt sufficiently well to feed the wizard (and itself), provided there is game in the surrounding area.
When the spell ends (that is, when the dog has served the caster for a number of days equal to the caster's EGO score), the dog fades back into the nothingness from which it came.
