Mabari war hounds are highly intelligent dogs, believed to have been bred by mages or magisters, possibly originating from the Tevinter Imperium. They are large, well-muscled with short coats in various colors and can understand and execute complex orders. Renowned for their loyalty, mabari imprint on a master for life, making them lifelong companions and symbols of worth in Ferelden. These dogs play a crucial role in Ferelden military strategy, capable of breaking enemy lines and instilling fear in soldiers. They use scent to distinguish allies, assisted by kaddis paint during battles. Mabari are pack animals with a strong sense of dominance, often marking territory to establish order and boost their confidence. They are known for their fierce loyalty, often avenging their master’s death before succumbing to it themselves.
