Howlers live on planes where chaos and evil hold sway.

A howler is about 8 feet long and weighs about 2,000 pounds.

Although they are surprisingly intelligent, howlers do not speak—they only howl.

If there is a language within the howls, as some have suggested, even spells cannot decipher it.

Howlers understand Abyssal.

Howlers attack in groups, for they are cowardly and cruel.

They prefer to charge into combat, race out, and then charge in again.

A howler’s neck bristles with long quills.

While biting, the creature thrashes about, striking the victim with them.

An opponent hit by a howler’s quill attack may find that they break off the howler and are left in thier flesh.

A lodged quill can be removed safely with someone adept with healing .
