MARRASH
Marrashi are plague-bearing devils. A marrash resembles a gnoll with taloned hands and feet and double-jointed, bird-like legs. It has great feathered wings. Marrashi sometimes offer their services to Yeenoghu; even though the demon lord of gnolls is far more brutal and less subtle than the marrashi, their resemblance to his people often serves both devils and demon lord well.
