Demonhosts

Normally demons need a living host to sustain them in the mortal realm but since an animated undead has its own life force it can be used as a replacement. For a demon this is considered unworthy treatment and it will need to be forced into taking control of the body. The undead would then become a demonhost.

A demonhost is a potent greater undead usually created from a powerful lesser undead such as a mummy or ultor. The type of demon used varies depending on the properties wanted for the demonhost. The most common variants are the amarok for warriors, djinn for spell casters and fiends for assassins, clerks and crafters. Both lesser and greater demons can be used.

The real drawback of a demonhost is that demons aren’t generally very loyal. While a conjured demon can be banished back to the Abyss a demon need first be exorcised from the body of the undead before this can be performed. Demonhosts are thus risky business.
