Humanoid devils with horns, bat-like wings, and spiked tails that serve the five-headed dragon queen of Hell

The manalishi, also known as "scaly devils" and "abyssai," are quite common on the upper planes of Hell. Most manalishi serve the five-headed dragon queen of Hell. Their appearance epitomizes the human idea of what a devil should look like. They are humanoid-shaped with horns, bat-like wings, and a long spiked tail. Their scaled hide varies, as there are five distinct breeds of manalishi: black, blue, green, red, and white. In combat, manalishi generally wield specific weapons depending on their breed (see above). All manalishi can use their spiky tails as a weapon for 1d2 damage. They can also grapple, using their scaled and barbed skin to damage their victims. Damage is as follows: black 1d4+4, blue 1d4+3, green 1d4+2, red 1d4+1, white 1d4+2. Treasure: If manalishi are encountered in one of their hellish lairs they will have no treasure cache, but they may (10%) have another 1d4 other breeds of manalishi with them. If encountered in transit however, they may (15%) have 1d4 large gems, which they are delivering to one of their devil masters.
