Description
Magloire are minor demons that server the demon lord Alrunes (q.v.).
They may either appears as a cross between a man and a chick, or as a mandrake root with wing-like leafs. In chick-man form, they man attack with beak and claw, and while in root form may wail causing all those in a 10ft. radius (affecting only those of non-planar origin) to save with a +4 modifier or die. In either form, they fly, move, and have the same statistics as they would in the other form (although they have different attack modes, as mentioned above). On the prime-material, they may server as pseudo-familiars: they may be summoned by a powerful magic-user or cleric to serve as a familiar (although they do not confer the benefits of a normal familiar, nor is there any bond that exists between the owner and the Magloire) as long as they give enough magic items or treasure to satisfy the demon. If not given enough magic or treasure, however, the demon will attack the master until the owner or the demon itself dies. After the master dies, the demon will carry the soul to the demon Alrunes (although there may be some conflict if the owner also had a quasit familiar).
Each magloire also may use the following powers, at 5th-level use: locate object, darkness (5' radius), teleport (1/day), telekinese 600 gp weight, detect magic, and detect good. The demons may also try to gate in another of its kind with a 20% chance of the gate opening.
