Bring a touch of arcane whimsy to your next session with the Mastiff Wizard. This stout, droopy-jowled canine is dressed for adventure in a classic pointed hat and a heavy traveler’s cloak, making him the perfect high-intelligence familiar or quirky NPC for any fantasy campaign.
A loyal mastiff, imbued with magical intelligence, stands alert and ready to cast a spell or follow its master's command.
A whimsical NPC quest-giver, a powerful wizard's familiar, or a mid-level encounter where environmental magic is used over physical force.
