Stoglin
Stoglins are demons that come from the abyss, unlike most demons, however, stoglins are significantly more reasonable than their larger, stronger relatives; they often make their way out to Tellus, to approach a more peaceful life, or simply to have a change of scenery.
Depending on the demonic heritage of a stoglin, they will carry different features and abilities, the colouration of their carapaces matching the faction which they hail from.
Stoglins resemble humanoids in their basic shape, though they stand around 3-4 ft tall. With their large, piercing mandibles and chitinous exterior, a stoglin cannot hide from its demonic nature, not that they often try.Stoglin
