BALOR [ROG] DEMONIC COMMAND UNIT

Image
In the original Dungeons & Dragons pamphlets, this breed of demon was known as "balrog", but the name was revised in subsequent supplements to simply "type VI demon" so as not to infringe on J. R. R. Tolkien's copyright. In second edition AD&D, the name "type VI demon" was revised to "balor," taking the name of the greatest individual of their rank as the name for the entire breed. Also in second edition, balors now had vorpal swords. # Typical physical characteristics In the original Monster Manual, balors are twelve foot tall, winged humanoids with horns and demonic features. They prefer to wield swords and many-tailed whips. They are able to create flames around themselves and shed darkness at will. They possess a strong charisma that attracts other chaotic evil creatures. They tend towards organized evil. Six are known to exist. In the 2nd edition Monstrous Manual, balors are the most powerful tanar'ri. They exist sole...

Gnolls in Dungeons & Dragons

Gnoll flind Physical description In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game , gnolls greatly resemble hyenas [1] . They are usually between seven and eight feet tall, weighing around 250 to 320 pounds, [2] and use armor made of horn, metal, or leather [1] . Gnolls are generally depicted in the game world as feral nomads who kill and pillage without warning [3] . Their whole bodies are covered in reddish-brown fur which becomes shorter as it surrounds their faces and clawed hands to reveal grey colored skin.

GREEN RONIN WRATH AND RAGE

Image
Game : Wrath & Rage Publisher : Green Ronin Series : d20 Reviewer : Wyrdmaster Review Dated : 17th, October 2002 Reviewer's Rating : 7/10 [ Good ] Total Score : 7 Average Score : 7.00 The Races of Renown series from Green Ronin is part of the OGL Interlink program. This means that titles will not clash with others in the OGL Interlink. Wrath & Rage is the Orc and Half-Orc book in the Interlink and it'll probably be the only one. I can only hope that the other companies in the Interlink are producing material as good as Green Ronin's because Wrath & Rage is rather good and before that the Dwarf book, Hammer and Helm , is even better. The introduction here is your typical short RPG supplement introduction. It contains an important point though; the author, Jim Bishop, notes that orcs are often portrayed as filthy, stupid and savage and that's entirely as it should be. Right from the start then you can't expect Wrath and Rage to offer you any cliché bus...
