Magic Resistance

The hezrou has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Stench

Any creature that starts its turn within 10 feet of the hezrou must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until the start of its next turn. On a successful saving throw, the creature is immune to the hezrou's stench for 24 hours.

Actions

Multiattack

The hezrou makes three attacks: one with its bite and two with its claws.

Bite

Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: (2d10 + 4) piercing damage.

Claws

Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: (2d6 + 4) slashing damage.

Variant: Summon Demon (1/Day)

The demon chooses what to summon and attempts a magical summoning. A hezrou has a 30 percent chance (1d100cs<30) of summoning 2d6 (2d6) dretches or one hezrou. A summoned demon appears in an unoccupied space within 60 feet of its summoner, acts as an ally of its summoner, and can't summon other demons. It remains for 1 minute, until it or its summoner dies, or until its summoner dismisses it as an action.

Hezrous serve as foot soldiers in the demonic hordes of the Abyss. Although physically powerful, they are weak-minded and hezrous can easily be duped into sacrificing themselves by more powerful demons. As they press their attacks into the heart of an enemy’s forces, their foul stench can sicken even the toughest foes.
