Forest Keeper vs Eyeless Dog Who Would Win
The forest keeper has higher health but low intelligence, equivalent to a toddler whose iq is generally around 10. Eyeless dogs on the other hand, would be intelligent (they are descended from wolves/lions I'm not sure which) but they can't see. One trait about the forest keeper is its footsteps. On adamance, you can hear the forest keeper's loud footsteps from the ship no matter where it is which could play a pivotal role in the battle as the eyeless dog can pinpoint the giant's location and attack the legs which could knock the forest keeper over - they can one-shot players and baboon hawks. Also, I'm not sure that the forest keeper could pick up the eyeless dog because the dogs are about 2/3 of the giant's size and certainly not eat it - a human just about fits in its strange mouth. Another thing to point out is the giant's aggression; they do not seem to attack anything else whereas eyeless dogs kill anything they hear. To me, I think an eyeless dog would win, knocking the forest keeper off its feet before mauling it. However, if you disagree or have anything to add telle me in the comments.

I'd say that one Keeper wouldn't be killed by a single dog.

Maybe it wouldn't be able to "eat" it, but could hurt him nonetheless, considering their size and high strenght.

Gameplay mechanics aside, I'd imagine lone dogs would simply stray away from giants, if possible.

If Giants were to target dogs and baboon hawks, they'd have potentially too many distractions keeping players safe, so that can explain why they don't interact with other creatures.

Something I would like to add, it isn't likely this battle would happen. The forest keeper is made from plant matter and the eyeless dog is strictly carnivorous. Also, I think it is possible for a lone eyeless dog to kill a forest keeper but it would only happen like 6/10 times. I can't think of a forest keeper victory though other than the eyeless dog falls of a cliff or something but the usual 2 or 3 eyeless dogs would absolutely destroy a forest keeper but a lone one would have more trouble.

Something in my battle idea I should point out, the first intelligence bit should probably be more battle intelligence because I couldn't find an estimate for a wolf/lion's IQ level.

To reiterate on the fact that the forest keeper is plant matter, I think it says in the bestiary they are made of plant matter, relying on photosynthesis to survive. They are also related to brackens which is quite cool. As RaindropperG said, the forest keeper could seriously injure the eyeless dog but I do think the eyeless dog has the considerable power advantage over the forest keeper.

also just after posting this i looked it up on google to see any contradicting arguments and I found my post which I think is cool.
