An Earth Demon was a type of bloated, predatory monster that drew its power from the earth.[1]
Description[]
Earth demons were not denizens of the Pit, indeed they were not actual demons at all. It was their violent and magical natures which earned them the "Demon" label.[2] Reputedly earth demons were the offspring of an accident - a sorcerer had spilled some kind of liquid upon the earth, and it was that mishap that was rumoured to have created the first earth demon.[3]
Earth demons benefited largely from its elemental connection to the earth - they camouflaged themselves well, lying in wait just a few centimetres beneath ground level, before bursting forth and surprising its prey (though surprisingly, earth demons never consumed their kills). Their strength was nevertheless also their weakness - removing them from contact with the Earth caused great injury to them. However, the creature was huge, typically standing over three and a half metres tall,[2] so hoisting it off the ground was no mean feat.[1]
