Barbed Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one
target. Hit:^8 (ldl2 + 2) piercing damage. If the target is a
creature, it must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw
against disease or become poisoned until the disease ends.

coughs up flies, and sheds rotting skin, and the target must
repeat the saving throw after every 24 hours that elapse. O n a
successful save, the disease ends. On a failed save, the target's
hit point maximum is reduced by 4 (ld8). The target dies if its
hit point maximum is reduced to 0.
APPENDIX 0 I CREATURES
BULEZAU
Bulezaus are horned demons that lash foes with their
spiky tails. Violent in the extreme, they gather in scrab-
bling mobs, wrestling and fighting among themselves
until a better target comes along. Demon lords use
bulezaus as footsoldiers in their undisciplined armies.
Disfiguring ailments plague bulezaus: crusted eyes,
maggots wriggling in open sores. and a reek of rotten
meat that follows them wherever they go.

TOECK
Crokek'toeck is Yeenoghu's demonic pet. Resembling a
giant mudskipper with the teeth, fur, ears, and laugh of
a hyena, this unique demon can hold smaller demons
in its gullet and disgorge them anywhere Yeenoghu
wishes. Immune to the mind-shattering effects of the
River Styx, Crokek'toeck is often used to transport
smaller demons (and sometimes Yeenoghu himseU)
through the Styx's terrible waters.
