Monsters: Aquatic Demons
Fiend Folio for D&D 3.5 also has three aquatic demons, in case the PCs decide that hiding underwater
in the Abyss is a good idea. The illustration always seemed very disturbing to me.

SM+4 Very Fine Scythe (20): swing 10d+1 impaling (KYOS: 9d impaling), Reach 3-5. May get stuck; see Picks (p. B405).
SM+4 Very Fine Scythe hook (15): thrust 6d+2 cutting (KYOS: 7d cutting), Reach 3-5. Hook enables the rules under Hook (p. LT54), and may also damage the victim.
Punch (20): thrust 7d+1 crushing (KYOS: 8d crushing), Reach C-3.
Sharp Teeth (20): thrust 7d+1 cutting (KYOS: 8d cutting), Reach C.
Tentacle (20): thrust 1d crushing (KYOS: 1d-4 crushing), Reach C-3. Extra-Flexible. Effective ST 13 (KYOS: ST 8).
Fear Aura: The myrmyxicus can take a Ready maneuver to project an aura of fear. Everyone within 10 yards of the myrmyxicus must roll an immediate Fright Check (p. B360) at -4. If a victim succeeds at his Fright Check, he will be unaffected by this myrmyxicus’ Fear Aura for one hour.
Breathe Unholy Vapor (16): Costs 1 FP, takes 5 seconds to recharge. Range 5/10, maximum width 5 yards. Creatures who breathe the gas must roll HT or become nauseated for 2 seconds times margin of failure. After that the subject is stunned (p. B420) and may roll vs. HT once per second to recover. In addition to that, holy creatures take 3d toxic damage, ignoring DR.
Unholy Ichor: When the myrmyxicus receives any cutting, impaling, or piercing injury, it bleeds unholy ichor on the weapon that wounded him – or its foe, if attacked with claws, teeth, etc. If the ichor contacts a living creature, that creature must roll HT or become nauseated for margin of failure minutes. In addition, if that creature is holy, it takes 1d toxic damage (DR applies normally) regardless of the result of the HT roll. Until the myrmyxicus stops bleeding (see Bleeding, p. B420), the ichor drips on everything nearby. This works like any other Aura, and the demon can deliberately attack others by flicking its ichor around.
