Overview
A Hound of Tindalos is an extradimensional predator that hunts across angles and geometric discontinuities. Katherine Ward successfully encountered and contained one at St. Margaret’s Academy before joining the Order.
Physical Characteristics

- Exists partially in angles and discontinuous spaces
- Pursues prey multi-dimensionally
- Cannot manifest or move through curved geometry
- Can be contained or disrupted by disrupting angular spaces
Encounter History
Location: St. Margaret’s Academy
Circumstance: Katherine Ward encountered this creature during operations before joining the main party in Vienna.
Containment: Katherine successfully contained the Hound by disrupting angles — preventing its dimensional pursuit and trapping it. Her ability to solve this problem brought her to the Order’s attention and led to her recruitment.
Significance
The Hound encounter demonstrates Katherine’s:
- Tactical creativity and problem-solving
- Knowledge of esoteric geometry and supernatural mechanics
- Courage in direct confrontation with extradimensional threats
This incident is what brought the Order to recruit her, rather than her previous thieving career.
Containment Status
The Hound remains contained at St. Margaret’s Academy. It is not a current threat to party operations.
