Combat Behavior: Heshthotim that face more than one enemy prefer to use their spells to create darkness. After that, they attack with sword and whip. At first they attack opponents randomly, but when injured by someone, their vengeful nature takes over and they focus their attacks on that enemy exclusively (if possible).

Sphere Lore

• QL 1: They avoid direct sunlight. As demonfollowers of Blakharaz, they can be hurt with weapons blessed by Praios.

• QL 2: Heshthotim can create utter darkness, in which they enjoy many advantages.

• QL 3+: Some heshthotim use other weapons, such as executioner’s axes or chains.

Special Rules

*) Heshthot Long Sword: If you use a weapon to parry a blow from a Heshthot’s sword, and your parry succeeds, your weapon breaks on a roll of 19 or 20 on 1D20 (unless it is unbreakable).

**) Heshthot Whip: If a heshthot causes damage with its whip, the target gains one level of the condition Pain per hit. This Pain lasts until the next sunrise.

Destruction: If the heshthot loses all of its LP from a single attack, its weapons remain behind for 1D6 days (see Loan Weapon).

Demon Rules: Heshthotim use the general demon rules.

Additional Services: Loan Weapon (the heshthot loans the summoner one of its weapons, which remains on Dere for 1D6 days and then vanishes. For a cost of two services, the summoner may obtain both of the heshthot’s weapons).
