Maw demon

❌

Maw demons, also known as abyssal maws, were lesser demons that were constantly hungry for carnage and mortal flesh.

Description
A maw demon resembled an enormous toothy mouth surrounded by a small plethora of stubby appendages. Their ugly hides were a shade of dull brown.

Abilities
The rending teeth of maw demons could do devastating damage to their victims, especially those that fell underneath them. Their appetite was so strong they could consume horse-sized creatures in under a minute. Although they could understand Abyssal, their lack of intelligence and overwhelming number of teeth made it practically impossible for them to actually speak, normally producing unclear noises.

Society
Evil armies often used maw demons as shock troops, having them rush into the thick of combat straight away. Abyssal maws were usually summoned by gnoll war bands to partake on the destruction they brought. Maw demons present in a gnoll war band attacked anything the gnolls came across but did not respond to commands or orders. Anything they devoured was eventually transported directly to Yeenoghu's gullet once they rested.
