The Blood-Hounds of Valerius

Lord Valerius was always fond of the hunt. In death, he could not bear to be without his hounds, so he 'elevated' them. These hounds are magically bound to the stones of the castle, allowing them to sense when the air in a room stagnates or when a living creature lingers too long.

Keen Scent. The hound has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell.
Castle Stalker. If a living creature spends 10 minutes or more in a single room within Valerius' Castle, the Blood-Hound automatically picks up their scent. It can track that creature's exact path regardless of Stealth checks until the creature leaves the castle or uses magic to mask its scent.
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.
Sanguine Obsession. If the hound starts its turn within 30 feet of at least 1 pound of raw meat or a magical illusion of fresh blood ( to detect), it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or spend its turn moving toward and interacting with the lure, ignoring all other targets unless it takes damage.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 9 () piercing damage plus 3 () necrotic damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
Sanguine Bay (1/Day). The hound emits a terrifying howl. Each creature within 60 feet that can hear it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Locking Jaw. When a creature within 5 feet attempts to move away from the hound, the hound can make a Bite attack. On a hit, the creature's speed becomes 0 for the rest of the turn.
