Shemhazian
Standing 35 feet tall with claws, pincers, and fangs, this demon born from torturers' souls fixes onlookers with a paralyzing gaze.
Shemhazians rise from the souls of torturers and those who reveled in mutilating the physical bodies of their victims. Standing 35 feet tall, a shemhazian is well equipped with a wide range of claws, pincers, and fangs to continue inflicting such torments on those they encounter.
In play
Paralyzing Gaze (aura, divine, unholy, visual) 30 feet. A non-demon creature that ends its turn in the aura must attempt a DC 35 Fortitude save. If it fails, it's slowed 1 for 1 round, and if it critically fails, it is paralyzed for 1 round.
Succor Vulnerability A shemhazian's mutilation is a part of them, and they can't bear to see it reversed.
