The Goristro resembles a fiendish Minotaur towering more than twenty feet tall. When controlled by a demon lord, goristros make formidable living siege Engines and prized pets. Goristros possess preternatural cunning when navigating labyrinthine Passages and shifting corridors, pursuing foes in a terrifying hunt.
A hulking Goristro sometimes bears a palanquin, carrying smaller Demons on its broad shoulders, much like an Elephant carries riders on its back.
