+2 Cards When you discard this other than during Clean-up, you may set it aside, and put it into your hand at end of turn. |
Faithful Hound is an Action-Reaction card from Nocturne. It provides weak terminal draw, but has a Reaction that adds it to your next hand if it is discarded outside of Clean-up, making it good fodder for discard for benefit cards.

FAQ
Official FAQ
- "End of turn" is after drawing in Clean-up.
- The Reaction ability can happen on your turn and on other players' turns; if for example you discard Faithful Hound to another player's Raider, you can set it aside and return it to your hand at the end of that turn.
- Faithful Hound does not have to be in your hand for the ability to work; for example you can set it aside when it is discarded from your deck due to Night Watchman.
- The ability does not work if Faithful Hound is put into your discard pile without being discarded; for example nothing special happens when you gain Faithful Hound, or put your deck into your discard pile with Scavenger (from Dark Ages).
- The ability does not do anything during Clean-up.
- Setting Faithful Hound aside is optional.
- You cannot choose to discard Faithful Hound without something telling you to discard.
Other rules clarifications
- If you discard Faithful Hound with Vassal and choose to set it aside, Vassal will fail to play it. [1]

Relevant outtakes
Possibility of cheating
If you discard multiple Faithful Hounds to e.g. a Militia and set them aside, the other players can't confirm how many Faithful Hounds you actually discarded, because they can only see the top card of your discard pile.
In practice everyone reveals all the Faithful Hounds from their hand like you'd expect. Then we can consider, where should available energy be directed.
If it were an issue, there could possibly be a tortured wording that had you reveal it as you discarded it but resolve it afterwards, combined with the assurance that I wouldn't make effects that triggered on effects such that something else could happen then.
