Fell Beast

http://www.lordoftherings.net/media/deskto...hking1_1280.jpg



Fell Beasts have no demonic name. Instead they were given names by humans who saw them swoop down and rip apart towns. Fell beast, named after the creatures the Nazgul ride on in Lord of the Rings due to their striking resemblance.

These creatures can swoop down and break up stone walls and their Jaws have powerful muscles that can rip a man in half in a single bite. They have a huge endurance for flight, seeming to never need to rest. Their teeth are near indestructible which has led some to make daggers from them.

There is a rumor of a people deep in the western deserts who've learned to tame these creatures. They claim that they aren't really demons, just carrion birds that have been changed by the demon's evil.

These creatures don't really travel into large cities unless in packs, but they can be seen on a regular basis out in the open desert of the west, or any open desert for that matter.

Nydus Worm

Posted Image

These newly created demons were made by Durial and his lieutenants to counter the humans use of high technology and the increase in magical prowess of the humans.

These worms burrow under the ground for the most part and are harmless for the most part. on average they measure 250 meters in length and 40 feet wide, but because they travel so deep underground their presence can only be felt when they come close to the surface. They also lack the ferociousness of most demons. These demons are content to sit still in one place for very long periods of time.

They're body is covered in armored segments that are hard as rock making them tough nuts to crack. Around their head, the segments are tougher and the skin underneath is closer to hardened crystal then actual skin.

When the Nydus worm surfaces, it's head pokes up from the ground and retractable horn spikes all around the Nydus's head and neck jab into the ground, making the Nydus nearly immovable. It could take the shock wave of a nuke and not budge from it's spot. When i Nydus does surface, it can be violent. It's heavily armored head make it capable of coming up under a building which more then likely will cause the building to collapse.

once it's on the surface, it emits a vast, low power energy field that has several effects on the surrounding environment. All radios no longer work. The field disrupts all radio waves so communications within the field are impossible. complex electrical systems also don't work very well. Simple electrical devices however may still work, like lights or electrical motors, but any computers will be rendered inoperable. Aside from those effects, magic abilities within the field are rendered useless. This included powers granted by magical items.

It's a double edged sword however since demons also within the field won't be able to use their magic abilities. This field ranges to about 5 miles.

another special ability of this creature is transport. The Nydus can swallow a hord of grunts and goatmen (or anything of similar size. It's throat won't take Blunderbores very well), travel with them under ground to a spot, surface and then regurgitate them up to go on the attack.

There are extra large versions of these, measuring to almost 500 meters in length and 80 feet wide. They're rare and they lack the ability to make the disruptive energy field, but they are able to carry lots more troops in their throat, including Blunderbores and Fell Beasts.

make these a top priority target.
