Beyond Fate A nornhound can ignore any fortune or misfortune effects that affect them. If they're forced to roll twice as part of such an effect, they can take whichever die result they prefer, even if the effect would normally force them to choose a specific result.

Follow the Thread A nornhound is permanently quickened. They can use their extra action only to Step or Stride.Pack Attack The nornhound’s Strikes deal 1d6 extra damage to creatures within reach of at least two of their allies.Swallow Whole [one-action] (attack) ; Huge, 3d12+10 bludgeoning, Rupture 36Temporal Wave [two-actions] (mental, primal) The nornhound unleashes a blast of temporal energy in a 30-foot cone that deals 15d8 mental damage (DC 42 basic Will save). Creatures that fail their save become confused for 1 round. The nornhound can’t use Temporal Wave again for 1d4 rounds.Time Bound [three-actions] The nornhound jumps into the air, releasing multiple blasts of temporal energy. The nornhound leaps to a point within 60 feet. It can make up to three temporal blast Strikes at any point during this movement, each against a different target. These attacks count toward the nornhound’s multiple attack penalty, but the penalty doesn’t increase until after all the attacks.
Nordhound Packs
Long-lived or powerful norns sometimes spin multiple nornhounds and keep entire packs as guardians. These packs make quick work of intruders, gaining additional powers when working together. Much like a norn triumvirate, a nornhound pack can combine their power to affect the flow of time in a localized area, even stopping it outright. These packs are rarely found far from the domains of their masters, but those who survive an encounter find the experience impossible to describe to others.
