A large, demon whose head seems to be part of its massive chest, with a wide fang-filled mouth. Its massive, thick arms drape to the ground, with sharp black claws growing out of the three digits it has on each hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It stands 9 feet tall and weighs about 800lbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vorzhem are awful creatures whose poison seeps into the lands in which they occupy. Flora and fauna twist and become deformed if exposed to the essence of a Vorzhem for too long. Though smart, they often waste time in this world seeking food and pleasure, finding joy in the corruption and pain they cause, and then slumber off their festive pursuits<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Grab – Expert Grappler<\/strong>
    <\/strong>When the Vorzhem hits with a claw, it may initiate a Heroic Action (STR vs. target\u2019s STR or DEX). If the target fails, they are grappled and cannot act except to attempt escape with a successful Heroic Action on their turn. While grappling, the Vorzhem loses one of its claw attacks, but its bite attack gains +50%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Nausea<\/strong>
    <\/strong>Any creature grappled by the Vorzhem must succeed on a CON save each round or become nauseated. A nauseated victim cannot attack or cast spells, and may only move or attempt Heroic Actions. The condition lasts until the victim succeeds on a CON save, or one full minute passes without being engaged with a Vorzhem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Great Cleave<\/strong>
    <\/strong>If the Vorzhem disables or kills a creature with an attack, it gains an immediate free attack against another creature in reach. This chain continues as long as each attack drops its target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Power Attack<\/strong>
    <\/strong>Before attacking, the Vorzhem may take a -10 melee attack roll penalty while gaining +1d8 to the melee damage roll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Reagents & Remnants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Vorzhem Ichor<\/strong> (Reagent)
    A viscous, stinking fluid that seeps from a Vorzhem\u2019s hide. Alchemists can refine it into a potent toxin or corruption agent. Raw, it causes nausea and poisoning when ingested.
    Value:<\/strong> 100 gp
    Harvesting Difficulty:<\/strong> Difficult<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Vorzhem Hide <\/strong>(Remnant)
    Thick patches of its armored skin can be harvested to reinforce armor. When properly treated, it is immune to acid and gains +1 AV, but a Vorzhem\u2019s hide never loses its stench. The hide can be worked into up to 22 SIZ total in armor.
    Value:<\/strong> 750 gp
    Harvesting Difficulty:<\/strong> Very Difficult<\/p>\n\n\n\n
