Trivia

 * The Bloodhounds were first revealed in the Chronicles of Ryzhy [S2 Chpt. 3 short film].
 * In the second season of "The Chronicles of Ryzhy" short film series, an ex-BEAR PMC by the name of "Den" gets introduced, he is the one that escorts Ryzhy to Jaeger and thus, begins the Bloodhounds quest.
 * His appearance as one of the Bloodhounds might be conflicting, as in the short film, he and Ryzhy are the ones chased by Bloodhounds. However, when Den encounters one of his Bloodhound friends, Kirya, they do not shoot at eachother.
 * This could hint at the possibility of him returning to the search party after successfully escorting Ryzhy to inpose a sort of Red Herring on the Bloodhounds.
