Pot Puppies were first seen in the The Jewel of the Dingo Isles campaign.

History

No one is quite sure weather these creatures were invented by a magician or simply found in the wild. Exceedingly common, these creatures sell for a dime a dozen. All you have to do plant them in soil, and keep them well watered. Once fully grown, it exits the earth and becomes loyal to whoever planted them. The average lifespan of pot puppy is one year. At the end of its life, the puppy reverts to mulch and seeds. Theses seeds and be replanted and bring you more puppies however many times you wish.

Characteristics

Pot Puppies are puppies that grow from seeds. These very common seeds can be acquired from a wizard, and after tending to them, will eventually sprout a Pot Puppy. It is unknown if the puppies have to be grown in pots or can be grown outside pots too.

Skeletons seem to like these puppies.

Pot Puppies are immune to fire and would convert into Hellhounds when coming into contact with fire. They can then revert back into Pot Puppies if they expel their flames.

Abilities

Hell Hound Awakening

Discovered in The Sunswords campaign Pot Puppies that come into contact with fire transform into Hell Hounds, which are capable of breathing out fire. Hell Hounds are typically considered hostile, however training it as a Pot Puppy will tame it as a Hell Hound. Extinguishing the fire of a Hell Hound will transform it back into a Pot Puppy.

Notable Examples

The Crew of the Bocoe saved three Pot Puppies during The Jewel of the Dingo Isles campaign.

Kallark rescues a Pot Puppy from a burning house and adopts it during the Sunswords campaign. Kallark would then name the puppy Anihilus the Living Death That Walks.

Cooper is what the first mate McCoy would later name his pot puppy in The New Crew. And despite being of advanced age proves to be a valuable asset to the ship. While storming Laeyuleaugh, McCoy takes cooper ashore, fighting side by side with the dog. Cooper would kill several elves and Gnomes but loose a leg during the pillaging. After retrieving the key and loosing Captain Merci to the Sunswords, McCoy makes Cooper his first mate. And when the ship gets boarded by Virgo Sunsword, Cooper once again proves his worth by steering the ship for the entire duration of the battle. He was last seen being escorted to the Silvermine Mountains with his master McCoy.

Trivia

• It is questionable whether or not the party, other than Octavius, knew that they were plants.
• Pot puppies were introduced in The Jewel of the Dingo Isles which was the campaign that, according to Rob, had "no tricks". However, pot puppies are not only immune to fire, but become hostile upon contact with it. Because Rob did not mention that to the players, the idea of "no tricks" became very questionable.
