Description

Infernal beings are monstrosities with otherworldly or extra-dimensional origins. These beings are universally vile and at odds with the powers of goodness. There are several distinct races or groups of infernal beings, generally grouped by their origin. They might be called demons, devils, or other related terms. If reduced to 0 Hit Points in the mortal world, an infernal is not destroyed but disappears in a pall of greasy black smoke and terrifying scream, banished back to its home dimension or plane. Once banished, it cannot return to the mortal world for an entire year. To truly destroy one it must be reduced to 0 Hit Points while in its home dimension.

A Vrock is the warrior of the infernals. It comes in many horrible forms, but the most common one resembles a blend of the ugliest features of a man, a vulture, and a bat. A vrock can attack with all five of its attacks while in flight, but cannot use its talons on the ground. A vrock is immune to non-magical weapons. It can cast Light (Dark) (Dark only), Detect Invisibility, and Telekinesis at will, and once per day has a 10% chance of summoning one of their own kind to fight alongside it.
