The Eldri are a breed of infernals that focus their attentions on the accumulation of dark magical secrets and evil lore. They are incredibly skilled in the use of magic and rival vegas (see page 159) in power. Both male and female varieties of eldri exist, and regardless of superficial gender they are universally beautiful. Their blood-red skin, bright orange-red hair, and single smooth horn that grows from their forehead gives them a devilish appearance.
An eldri has the ability to create blasts of flame from its hands up to 120 feet. Its nails are as hard as iron and as sharp as daggers, and will use them only if caught in melee. In addition, an eldri has the ability to fly. It has the ability to cast spells as a 15th-level Magic-user. It prefers spells that deal direct damage over subtler magics. An eldri spends its life in search of new magic and always has a small stock of magical items it has discovered over the course of its existence (as reflected in the treasure type above).
