MEZZO LOTH
The bulk of the yugoloth population is made up of
mezzoloths, which are human-sized insect creatures
covered in dense chitinous plates. Mezzoloths serve
as foot soldiers in yugoloth armies, their wide-set eyes
glowing red as the mezzoloths bear down on their foes.
Violence and reward are the fundamental drives of
a mezzoloth, and powerful beings that promise one or
the other can easily attract them into service. Although
it has lethal claws on its four arms, a mezzoloth
typically wields a trident in two of them. If surrounded
by enemies, a mezzoloth exhales toxic fumes that can
· choke and kill whole groups of creatures.


NYCALOTH
The elite airborne shock troops of the yugoloths,
nycaloths look like muscular gargoyles. Powerful bat
wings bear them swiftly aloft in battle, and the razor-
sharp claws of their hands and feet cut through flesh
and bone with ease. A nightmarish foe, a nycaloth
strikes hard and fast without warning, then teleports
away. It uses its innate magic to turn invisible or
create illusory doubles of itself, further confounding
its enemies.
Nycaloths are the most loyal of the yugoloths. When
they find an evil master that treats them well, they are
unlikely to break their agreement unless the reward for
doing so is extreme.

ULTROLOTH
Ultroloths command the yugoloth armies of the Blood
War. An ultroloth looks like a slender gray-skinned
humanoid with an elongated head. Its face bears no
features except for two ovoid eyes. These eyes can
become sparkling pools of light that can transfix other
creatures and leave them reeling and helpless.
Frequently at one another's throats, ultroloths
continually scheme to enhance their own
power. When not employed to fight in the
Blood War, ultroloths lead yugoloth
forces throughout the planes, acting
as crime bosses or commanders of
evil mercenary companies.
With a reputation for cruelty,
ultroloths command their
minions to fight while the
ultroloths stay removed
from combat themselves.
Lesser yugoloths know
their place when facing an
ultroloth and respond to its
summons without demand
for payment.
