Glabrezu are huge humanoid demons averaging 9 feet tall and weighing about 1,500 pounds. They have dog-like heads with vibrant violet-purple eyes, bony pincers where a normal humanoid would have hands, and a smaller set of human-like arms with ordinary hands protruding from their chests. Their wrinkly, cracked skin ranges in color from a deep brown to pitch black.
Glabrezu prefer to tempt victims into ruin, not unlike succubi, but glabrezu lure their prey with offers of power or wealth rather than passion. Preferring subterfuge to combat, these enormous demons attack with a vengeance if their attempts to entice or deceive fail.
Special Abilities
Spell-like Powers: A glabrezu can perform any of the following spell-like powers as often as desired, instead of attacking: cause fear (reverse of the remove fear spell), darkness (as the reverse of light) with a 10-foot radius, levitate, polymorph self, or telekinesis, all as if a 10th-level Magic-user.
Magical Weapons Required: Glabrezu, like other infernals can only be damaged by magical weapons.
Summon Aid: Once per day a glabrezu may attempt to summon aid from other infernals. Roll 1d%: on a roll of 01-10, a vrock (page 159) appears; on 11-20, a hezrou (page 153); on 21-30, another glabrezu arrives; on a roll of 31-00, the attempt fails. If the attempt fails, the glabrezu can try again as often as desired (once per round maximum) until it succeeds.
