Chienlycanthrope · no. 81 in the monster list

Everything is read from the game's code, unless stated otherwise

They're not just razor-taloned terrors, their tension also increases every time they're attacked. Handle with care.

They bring out their eye colour by accessorising matching grey boots and mini-dresses with striking blue belts.

Habitat (in-game monster list)

Lonely Coast · Bloomingdale

In the game, a defeated monster's entry names one of these places as soon as you have visited it, even if you never defeated that monster there; otherwise “?????????” (checked in game). The first two are named, “Etc.” for the third.

In the field

Behaviour: spots the party all around it up to 3.5 units, then chases it, but runs away if the leader's attack + defence exceed 3 times its own.

In each cell: share of the visible monsters in that zone, then (in brackets) share of that zone's battles it takes part in, alone or with others. “Joins”: never visible, it only comes along with the monster you touched. “In the forest”, “on the coast”…: which monsters appear depends on the ground under the hero's feet (grass, forest, coast, rocky ground, swamp…); with no detail, they appear anywhere on the map. “Starflight Express stop”, “islet”, “part”: a separate corner of the region, reached as shown. Exact figures from the game code.
