The Hounds of Shadow were the servants of High House Shadow and some believed them to be more ancient than the Shadow Realm itself. "There was around each beast an aura of dreadful competence, wrought with vast antiquity like threads of iron." The Hounds were described as being the size of a mule with broad, bunched shoulders and dun brown or shaggy tan coats. The massive Hounds had eyes variously described from glowing yellow to red although one of the Hounds was described as having one blue and one yellow eye. They had dark tongues. When travelling in secret they were capable of leaving behind no footprints, tufts of hair, or other trace of their passage.
