Demonic Ideas: Need help with an idea for some demon foes

WHAT? The lowly Bloodgod assigned double the HD of the Allmighty Lord of Change? I would pummel you mercilessly, if I could get my arms to stay in the same form for long enough!

Gotta agree with you... I too fielded a warband of Tzeentch back when I was single and could afford to play WH40K.

Vrock could suit Tzeentch - but it'd need some advancing. The 'Dretch to Demonlord' story hour contains a rather nasty example of that . :eek:

Have you got a copy of the old warhammer Realm of Chaos book(s)?

The first one was my favorite! If you have it then theres a nifty name generator for demons. I still use the mutations table from it to get random deformities for demons, cultists, etc.

A pit fiend could make a reasonable baseline for Slaneesh. Just make it look like a fiendish, hemaphroditic Miss Piggy. Yuck. :)
 

Pick up Legions of Hell for some more. There's a good plaguelord named Nergal in there (both Nergal and Nurgle are alternate spellings of a Babylonian god or demon of some kind, IIRC). I'd just use your glabrezu for the Slaanesh demon and describe it has having a bull head instead of a dog head. If you want, you could even give it a minotaur-like gore attack, although I'd be surprised if you actually used it.
 

A fat Hezrou for Nurgle? They have the stench.

A dretch advanced to high heaven (they are rolly poly demons) with lots of templates thrown on. I'm not familiar with any disease giver templates or classes unfortunately.
 

Thought about any half breeds? Half Demon/Half Troll. Yeah, it's bad, it's SO bad. It has fire resistance (and maybe acid? don't have MM handy).
