| − | All demons appear as weaker versions of their gods. In the case of Nergal, much like diseases, his followers mutate in stages. The first stage are almost imperceptible to all but empaths. Humans that are infected, but can still pass for a human, are called Nergalites. These insidious people are pawns of [[Nergal]] and do all they can to help his cult prosper. But, if they remain infected long enough, or if they come into contact with [[Nergal]] directly or his greater demons, they can become Nergalians. These are twisted versions of mortals. Their forms embody the traits of their god, and their skin is waxy and dead. Black blood, laden with plagues and disease, course through their veins, and demon hunters must be wary! If they shoot, behead, or wound one of these demons, and the blood makes contact with the human’s flesh, that mortal will quickly metamorphose into a Nergalian demon, themselves!

| − | Like most demonic types, Nergalians sport pointed ears, pointed teeth, and long, sharp claws. The Nergalians also have long bony tails that weep the plague in the form of a black goop. The tip of the tail acts as an omnipositor and can inject liquid corruption directly into a human orifice. They have a single, sickle shaped horn, unlike most demonic types, which sport horns in pairs. However, the males and females differ. The males are toad-like and misshapen, often with thick bloated torsos but long gangly legs and arms. They can leap long distances, and they burp a foul toxic cloud laden with Nergal’s plague. The demonesses, on the other hand, appear sickly and skeletal, yet make no mistake, they still wield unnatural, unholy strength. These demons constitute the backbone of Nergal’s demonic forces.

| − | Plague Maidens are named ‘maiden’ as such because they only form when a concentrated dose of Nergalian poison is sexually administered to a virgin human. The resulting creature shares many similarities with a normal Nergalian Demon such as the single horn and pointy ears, but they mutate even more deadly and insidious appendages. From their back and lungs a huge bladder, an air sack, grows. It can, magically and instantaneously, produce clouds of the plague! From it, two fleshy tubes extend and wiggle. With a breathy exhalation, the demon pushes all the air from its lungs and sack sending a fog of plague forward- one breath is all it takes to infect an average human!
