When the Wild Hunt appears, the Master and the Hunt materialize in a cloud of thick fog 10 miles away from their prey. The Master sounds his horn -- which can be heard for a mile in all directions -- and the hunt begins. For every mile the Hunt moves, the Master sounds his horn again.  He otherwise makes no attempt to speak or communicate.The Hunt travels towards its prey, and should they miss the prey they travel on for another 10 miles in a random direction, hunting any creature they come across. Provided that the Master and his hounds encounter no prey to hunt, they continue the process of moving 10 miles, turning to a random direction, and moving 10 more miles. They repeat the paths of the Hunt until dawn, or until they are slain. Should the Master and Hounds encounter the source of evil that brought them forth, they battle to the death -- theirs or their prey's. Any creatures that were charmed along the way to join the hunt also are compelled to join in this battle.COMBATThe Master of the Hunt usually does not engage in combat until the prey has been run down. Then he attacks relentlessly with his +3 longspear.  His tactics are generally limited to fontal assaults, as he has no fear of death.  He has also been known to run over victims with his chariot.Charm Monster (Su): When the Hunt passes within 30 feet of a creature, that creature must succeed on a DC 20 Will save or become swept up in the Hunt. Creatures affected take one of two roles; the hunter or the hunted. The save DC is Charisma-based.For each mile traveled with the Hunt, a charmed creature must succeed at another DC 20 Will save. A failed roll indicates the creature has now become the hunted (and the charm is broken). On a successful save the charm is broken and the creature is free to leave the area, though if the Hunt or the creature move within 30 feet of each other, a new save must be made.Ranger Class: The Master of the Hunt has the abilities of a 15th-level ranger. He can divide his favored enemy bonus (a total of +12) in even-numbered increments among any four types of creature. The Master chooses which creature types to apply his favored enemy bonus to at the beginning of a hunt.Spells (2/1/1/1): 1st-resist elements, speak with animals; 2nd-snare; 3rd-water walk; 4th-freedom of movement.Detect Evil (Su): The Master continuously detects evil as the spell cast by a 20th-level sorcerer. The Master can suppress or restart this ability as a free action.Fly (Sp): The Master can fly as the spell, at will.The Wild Hunt, Hound ofMedium Magical Beast (Extraplanar)Hit Dice: 5d10+10 (37 hp)Initiative: +2Speed: 50 ft.

They always run in front of the Master, and are under his control.COMBATThe Pack of the Wild Hunt fights under the complete control of the Master of the Hunt.  They only attack when all beings involved in the Hunt have had their chance to kill.  The death of individual members goes unnoticed by the rest of the pack, and all disappear when the hunt is over.Fear (Sp): A hound of the Wild Hunt can cause fear as the spell once per round (Will save, DC 12).  The save DC is Charisma-based.Trip (Ex): A hound of the Wild Hunt that hits with a bite attack can attempt to trip the opponent (+1 check modifier) as a free action without making a touch attack or provoking an attack of opportunity. If the attempt fails, the opponent cannot react to trip the hound. Fly (Sp): A hound of the Wild Hunt can fly as the spell, at will.Magic Circle Against Evil (Su): This ability continuously duplicates the effect of the spell.  A hound of the Wild Hunt cannot suppress this ability.Skills: *Hounds of the Wild Hunt have a +4 racial bonus on Survival checks when tracking by scent.The Master of the Wild Hunt and the Pack of the Wild Hunt first appeared in Deities and Demigods (1980, James M. Ward and Robert J. Kuntz), and Legends and Lore (1990).</blockquote>
