''This twisted knight's armor is ill fitting its distorted frame, composed of two humanoid bodies half-melted into each other, one set of arms wielding a massive burning greatsword and the others weaving dark spells around its twins back.  Its two heads howl out in rage.''

The product of twisted fleshcrafting done by particularly cruel beings, the bifrovs is the result of mixing a humanoid warrior with a humanoid spellcaster to create something greater than the both of them.  Their two minds leave them insane and violent as they clash for control, but they work in unison to destroy their opponents before them.

The bifrovs usually lose the ability to speak coherently, but they typically understand common, aklo, and three more languages due to high intelligence.  They stand at 9 feet tall and weigh 600 lbs.

=== Combat ===

The bifrovs is two creatures in one, and they use their action economy advantage as much as they can.  With multi-spell, the caster side of bifrovs can layer on buffs en masse, then release devastating spells to their opponents or keep itself alive.

'''Dual Actions:'''  The bifrovs is two creatures in one, and has two full rounds of actions (and two swift/immediate actions).  One half of the actions taken by the creature has access to the maneuvers, while the other half of the creature has access to the spells.  Both can use their movement actions to move as normal.

'''Elemental Weapon {{Su}}:'''  As a swift action, the bifrovs can buff their held weapon with elemental energy that lasts for 1 minute.  Their weapon deals an additional 2d6 energy type of their choice (acid, cold, electricity, or fire).  Applying a new elemental weapon buff removes the old one.
