Armanite

D&D 2024 monster: Armanite. Source: Mordenkainen Presents: Monsters of the Multiverse. challenge rating 7, creature type Fiend (Demon), Large size, speed 60 ft. Great herds of armanites race across the blasted fields of the Abyss, bent on slaughter and death, driven by unrestrained bloodlust. Whether they're controlled by more powerful demons or charging into battle for the sake of it, armanites use their claws and hooves, as well as their long, whiplike tails, to tear apart foes. In the armies of demon lords, armanites perform the role of heavy cavalry, leading the charge and tearing into their enemies' flanks. Armanites fight all the time-even battling each other if they can't find another enemy. They make ideal shock troops, utterly ruthless and bold to the point of stupidity. Part of what makes armanites so fearsome is the number of weapons they have at their disposal. They possess dense hooves, claws that end in curling talons, and long tails whose serrated ridges can flense the flesh from a victim, and they use them all to carve through their foes. When they're up against tough formations, they can call on their innate magic to loose bolts of lightning and blow holes in enemy ranks. Fiend (Demon) Large 60 ft.
