A hezrou can walk both upright and on all fours, but it always fights standing up

A hezrou is about 8 feet tall and weighs about 750 pounds.
===Combat===
Hezrous enjoy melee combat even more than vrocks do. They eagerly press an attack deep into the heart of enemy forces, so their stench can take effect as quickly as possible. They enter most battles by using ''[[SRD:Blasphemy|blasphemy]],'' and follow it with an occasional ''[[SRD:Chaos Hammer|chaos hammer]]'' or ''[[SRD:Unholy Blight|unholy blight]],'' depending on the alignment of their opponents.

A hezrou’s [[SRD:Natural Weapons|natural weapons]], as well as any weapons it wields, are treated as chaotic-aligned and evil-aligned for the purpose of overcoming [[SRD:Damage Reduction|damage reduction]].

'''[[SRD:Improved Grab|Improved Grab]] ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' To use this ability, a hezrou must hit with both claw attacks. It can then attempt to start a [[SRD:Grapple|grapple]] as a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]] without provoking an [[SRD:Attacks of Opportunity|attack of opportunity]].

'''[[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|Spell-Like Abilities]]:''' At will—''[[SRD:Chaos Hammer|chaos hammer]]'' ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 18), ''[[SRD:Greater Teleport|greater teleport]]'' (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), ''[[SRD:Unholy Blight|unholy blight]]'' ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 18); 3/day—''[[SRD:Blasphemy|blasphemy]]'' ([[SRD:DC|DC]] 21), ''[[SRD:Gaseous Form (Spell)|gaseous form]].'' [[SRD:Caster Level|Caster level]] 13th. The save [[SRD:DC|DCs]] are [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based.

'''Stench ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' A hezrou’s skin produces a foul-smelling, toxic liquid whenever it fights. Any living creature (except other demons) within 10 feet must succeed on a [[SRD:DC|DC]] 24 [[SRD:Saving Throw|Fortitude save]] or be [[SRD:Nauseated|nauseated]] for as long as it remains within the affected area and for 1d4 rounds afterward. Creatures that successfully save are [[SRD:Sickened|sickened]] for as long as they remain in the area. A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected again by the same hezrou’s stench for 24 hours. A ''[[SRD:Delay Poison|delay poison]]'' or ''[[SRD:Neutralize Poison|neutralize poison]]'' spell removes either condition from one creature. Creatures that have immunity to [[SRD:Poison|poison]] are unaffected, and creatures resistant to [[SRD:Poison|poison]] receive their normal bonus on their [[SRD:Saving Throw|saving throws]].. The save [[SRD:DC|DC]] is [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]]-based.

'''''Summon Demon'' ([[SRD:Sp|Sp]]):''' Once per day a hezrou can attempt to summon 4d10 [[SRD:Dretch|dretches]] or another hezrou with a 35% chance of success. This ability is the equivalent of a 4th-level spell.

'''[[SRD:Skills (Creature Statistic)|Skills:]]''' Hezrous have a +8 racial bonus on [[SRD:Listen Skill|Listen]] and [[SRD:Spot Skill|Spot]] checks.
