Element: Neutral 
Courshounds are incredibly valuable messengers, and while independent and able to care for themselves on long journeys, they are also loving and loyal. When they return from a journey, they greet their magi with gentle licks. When not running, they want nothing more than to curl up in a cool spot on the floor and rest with their magi nearby. Some courshounds also form bonds with multiple people in distant locations, especially those who routinely send messages to each other. Even if there are no messages to send, a courshound who has bonded with multiple people will race across the land to spend as much time with everyone as possible.
Bred for agility from the fastest members of the related zaya kenhound, these creatures are known for two things: Their loyalty and their blistering speed. They are the most trusted messengers of the Etain desert, able to cross miles of blistering hot sands in less than a day. They are keenly intelligent, and will faithfully deliver their message without fail. They have exquisite memory, and it is thought they will never forget a path they have run. Seeing these creatures zipping across the desert is a common sight for travelers in Etain. Their only limitation is their strength--messages are easy to carry, but heavier packages, if they can even carry them in the first place, will drastically slow them down.
