Mezzoloth

From Forgotten Realms Wiki

[edit]

Mezzoloths are the most common type of yugoloth encountered through the lower planes.

They look like humonoid insects covered in great chitinous plates. They have long, lanky arms and legs and wide, armored skulls. Mezzoloths have long, sharp claws that can cut through most non-magical substances.

They have a limited form of telepathy.

[edit] Combat

Mezzoloths are of a highly magical nature. They have a natural affinity with magical items. They often use magical weapons and shields if available. They can only be damaged by medium magical weapons too.

If no magical weapon exist, they use their powerful claws to attack. They get a bonus from their strength too.

They are immune to the affects of paralysis and poison. They have infravision. They can not be charmed.

[edit] Habitat

They are the lowest of the yugoloths. Higher yugoloths have no regard for these soldiers and use them at front lines in battle. Due to their lack of intelligence, mezzoloths accept their lot.

Mezzoloths tend to wander lower planes, especially the Abyss, in search of souls to torment.
