Aptorian Demon

creature

A nightmare creature close to nine feet tall, crouching on two thin hind limbs with a lone foreleg, long and multijointed, jutting down from its strangely bifurcated chest. From a hunched, angular shoulder blade, the demon's sinuous neck rises to a flat, elongated head with needle fangs ridging its jawline, which is swept back and naturally grinning like a dolphin's. Head, neck and limbs are black, while its torso is a dun grey. A single, flat black eye regards Kalam with appalling awareness.
