These profiles are subject to change. This is demo mode. And I placed these in this section because they are sample CADs using the new Magnamund rules, and so should go in the same section as the rest of the rest of the Magnamund rules.

Background_________
Spawned in great numbers in the vats beneath the fortress-city of Helgedad, the Giaks are vicious front-line troops in the Darklords' war on the free kingdoms of Magnamund. Cheap and expendable, the Giaks were once so numerous that they were bred as a source of fresh meat and lamp oil for their evil masters. They live short, violent lives; their minds filled with the poisonous psychic taint of the Vordaks and the Darklords. They are stocky grey-skinned humanoids with bestial, hairless faces and yellow eyes. The Giaks have a simple language of their own, but their average life span is less than a year, so they have little time to develop a complex culture, or more importantly, dream of rebellion. Despite their tendency towards self-preservation, the Giaks are vicious, disciplined troops so long as their masters keep a watchful eye over them. After all, they are far more scared of their commanders than they are of the enemy.

Vordak Gem (Special)
Background________
The Vordaks are undead servants of the Darklords, given life by magical gems and the waters of the Hellswamp. The Vordaks make for reliable lieutenants, and are often seen leading armies of Giaks and Drakkarim into battle. Vordaks are humanoid creatures with skeletal features and blood red eyes. They are surrounded by a psychic aura of horror and menace, and prefer to burn their victims psychically rather than face them in hand-to-hand combat.
*Vordak Gem: When a Vordak dies its body reverts back to its gemstone state. Anyone who picks up the gem in the panel after the Vordak dies suffers 3 red stones of fire damage from the heat the foul stone gives off. The gems are valuable to those who see only their beauty and not their vile origins.

The Najin are a successful product of the Wytch King's vile sorcerous experiments. They resemble monkeys with black batlike wings. They possess a basic intelligence and can be made to form into squads to fulfil simple tasks for their evil master. Conceived of as a match for the Darklords' Kraan and Giak servants, the Najin are so brutally effective that the Wytch King has been encouraged to breed them in larger numbers, much to the dismay of his enemies.

Background_________
The Helghast are one of the greatest threats to the freedom of Magnamund since the advent of the Darklords. Vile, shapeshifting horrors produced for the purpose of destabilising governments and turning friends to enemies, the Helghast are of vital importance to their dark masters' insidious plans. The Helghast may assume any form they wish, but their true form is that of a rotting human skeleton with blazing fiery eyes.
Even when revealed, the Helghast may be unstoppable- the vile magic involved in their creation renders them immune to all damage except that caused by magic, psychic powers or magical weapons. Even the greatest of warriors could die at their hands; unable to make any dent on their impervious bodies.
*The Bluefire Spear is the weapon of the Helghasts. These weapons are kept in their resting place beneath Helgedad until they are called upon by their wielders, summoned to the Helghast no matter where they may be on or in Magnamund. The weapon is a black iron staff topped with a carved stone head, through which the Helghast can channel its terrible Hel-fire. The Bluefire Spear is exclusive to the Helghasts.
Notes________
Helghast cannot be harmed by your Kung Fu.
Your Katana cannot hurt the Helghast.

The Vazhag are nasty vermin: hosts to lice, parasites and many infectious diseases. If the Cener Druids ever emerge from their stronghold in Ruel their army will contain vast numbers of Vazhag.

The Gourgaz are bipedal reptilian creatures, several times larger than a grown man, with well-developed arms capable of using tools and wielding weapons.
