Felhounds (also known as fel hounds, felbeasts, felhunters, hellhounds, manastalkers, fel demons and fel stalkers) are ugly, red, spined creatures from the depths of the Twisting Nether. Felhounds are demon hounds used by the pit lords to sniff out sources of magic wherever they be found. Felhounds, who feed upon magic itself, are fond of draining the energies of hapless wizards and then ripping their bodies to shreds. They serve as the forerunners of the Burning Legion.

Not of natural origins, felhounds are demons out of nightmare, in some ways lupine in form, but monstrously distorted, as if some insane god had created them out of the depths of his madness. The face most resembles some peculiar cross between a wolf and a reptile and from their long, savage jaws jutted scores of tall, sharp teeth. They have low-set horns that curled down and forward, their scaly hides were colored a deathly crimson accented by savage splatterings of black, their backs fluttering a crest of wild, shaggy brown fur. Each three-toed paw ending in sharp claws more than half a foot long and their back legs slightly shorter than the front. Atop their backs thrust two long, whiplike, leathery tentacles that ended in tiny sucker mouths.

The scourge of any spellcaster, the felbeasts were an especially insidious foe, for they hunted those with the gift for magic and drank from them until nothing but husks. It mattered not whether a spellcaster was a sorcerer, wizard, or druid, the magic that they used quickly became a part of them. By draining the magic out of its victims, the beast also devoured their life force. Given enough energy to devour, the demonic hounds could multiply themselves several times over, creating an epidemic of evil. Rhonin had studied their corpses and read all the information gathered about them. He had heard tales of the hounds multiplying themselves, but only have gorging on magic. During the first Burning Legion invasion, the felhounds were commanded by Hakkar the Houndmaster. With a crack of his magic whip, he could summon them into existence from the demonic plane.
