Houndmaster Pol is a ghost found in the Durinbold Mausoleum in Baldur's Gate's Lower City.

Overview[edit | edit source]

In life, Pol was the houndmaster of the patriar Durinbold family, of Durinbold Cheese Wedge fame.

He and his three ghostly dogs (Gordis, Rocky, and Zina) will attack the party if their sarcophagi are disturbed with a successful DC 15 Strength check.

Combat[edit | edit source]

Attacks and abilities[edit | edit source]

Notable Loot[edit | edit source]

Though nothing can be found in his ectoplasmic pile when defeated, his sarcophagus may be looted to find:

Scroll of Animal Friendship
Potion of Animal Speaking
Zina, Gordis, and Rocky's dog collars

Notes[edit | edit source]

Gordis, Rocky, and Zina will use Have Nice Gift! to empower Houndmaster Pol with Prey Essence.
