Keen Hearing and Smell. The hound has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing or smell.

Pack Tactics. The hound has advantage on an attack roll against a creature if at least one of the hound’s allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn’t incapacitated.

Flame Charge. If the hound moves at least 10 feet straight toward a target and then hits it with a bite attack on the same turn, the target takes an extra 13 (3d8) fire damage and must succeed on a DC 13 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.

Actions

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d10 + 4) piercing damage plus 13 (3d8) fire damage.

Horrifying Howl (1/Day). Each creature of the hound’s choice that is within 60 feet and is not deafened must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the fear on a success.
