creating c&c dungeon, need suggestions for demonic entit

<t>hey guys <br/> <br/> so i'm creating a dungeon, which can be seen in the thread for artists forums. the first few levels are going to be populated by undead, mostly zombie bugbears, skeletons, and a minotaur zombie, so that's finished to an extent. <br/> <br/> The 4th and 5th levels are going to ...
