SPECIAL ABILITIES

Spike Fiends are found in many dungeons that touch the etheral worlds. They are hunters that roam dark places to hunt for food, mainly anything they can hunt down. Appear as quadrapeds with spikes ranging in size and sharpness emerging from their bodies. There are so many spikes that they only other appengade that can be seen are their small, grnarled legs and feet.

Their appetites are unending – never full. The only small benefit is they are one of the few creatures that can eat and consume physical undead

Treasure Half

Grey skinned, humanoids with wings. Reside in caves and dungeons through-out most of the domain. While most are not inherently evil, many associate with dark, vile creatures that affects their tribes. Can be content, almost friendly if they have enough food and left alone. Many evil creatures manipulate them to get them to indirectly serve as lair defenders, even if the gargoyles are not directly taking orders.
