My wife walked into the room while you were naming off demons. She asked why I was watching a video of someone having a stroke.
Steven Babb beat you to that punchline 18 hours ago, but I am still giving it a 7/10 :)
I sure do love names that require two tongues to pronounce.
PC: so what is your kind called
Demon: Klurichir
PC: gods bless you
*Klurichir and an unstoppable demon horde*
Doom Slayer: It's free real estate.
So this is the easiest way to justify "Oh you thought the monster you just beat was bad? That wasn't even the nemesis!"
XD
Or... you thought 2020 was bad
Wait untill you see 2021
These guys roll out the red carpet for Demon Lords. And by “red carpet” I mean “3 foot deep bog of bloody mutilated bodies”.
Is it possible to fix the quandary between us, or is it too late? As, as i see it, we made better ideas between each other than apart. Anything i can do?
The Dark master I was unaware there was an issue. What’s up?
Not a Dog I thought i had upset you when we were talking about prryhic logic after the expert/paperweight thing.
The Dark master Not at all. I just don’t agree with the usefulness of such things in long term warfare. Moral victories mean little to me when you’re running out of troops. But I don’t hold anything against you for supporting it, as you stated last time we spoke, there have been several instances where a such victories have been useful in inspiring further action from others that proved to turn the tide of a war. But yeah, I wasn’t mad at you.
The Dark master I seem to remember the last conversation taking a wild veer away from paperweight compared to Gnomes and ended up on military tactics. That’s a hell of a jump.
Your players slapping balors and molydei around with impunity? Bring one of these guys in to give them a little off the top! >:3
Why is it that no matter how powerful the demon, there is always a bigger BADDER one out there. This just lets you understand how powerful the Demon Lords are to command such monstrosities.
And just think of the devil's that are able to push them back as well... Sing a war like that would probably look like several nuclear bombs going off indefinitely
"There's always a bigger fish"
-Jedi Master Qui-Gon
Well truthfully , it's a lesson for real life :: someone is always going to be bigger ,stronger, faster ,better at various activities ...no matter how much one excells at a anything. You may do 12 other things better than that someone . But in that one whatever it is , they are more proficient . That's the lesson . Be humble in your own prowess.
Thank you! I have watched all of your videos and searched for this monster everywhere and no one covers it. Thank you for granting my request AJ. I feel honored.
You are most welcome.
I am going to make use of these fellas. They seem to be much rarer than Balors are and, if I stick with there only being 6 Balors, that would mean 5 or less of these suckers.
I would make it 3. 1 for Demogorgon, 1 for Dagon, 1 for Pale Night.
The rest of the demon lords are powerful but those 3 are the cream of the crop.
gonna switch things up this time and thank you for mind melting task of pronouncing that list of demons at the beginning of the video, amazing job again Sir
Heh! Thanks :)
10:26 Going by that tinbit, when demons lose a battle, they run from each other. I mean you wouldn't wait would you? A klurichir's version of a wrist slap would probably drive you insane & who needs insanity to get in the the way of their glorious rise to become the next demogorgan. Not that demogorgan isn't already insane but hey? How i love these videos ❤👍 *A balor, nalfeshnee and marilith wimper in the solitude of their decadent fortress as they realise that they've began to unconsciously plot against themselves... In hell.*
The Klurichir must be ancient.
Lord Beerus has been trying to achieve Autonomous Ultra Instinct for a few millennia without success, yet ALL Klurichir possess the skill?
Now we have a new Arc for Goku.
*Relevant and Supportive Comment*
I think I used to date one of these things
Has extra limbs that murder of their own accord, ah yes the brimstone is made of brimstone.
But seriously should that not be as common as having freckles in hell.
As well as shadows turning into physical manifestations of your darker emotions that pop in and out of existence with little to no warning.
meanwhile demon incursions in 40k "oh is it Friday again?"
Well... *shrug* at least it's not the genestealers again
I would argue that a demon invasion in 40K is as big of a deal as in DnD.
Because you should not compare the one DnD world but the entire Multiverse to the galaxy of 40K.
Thus, if we used the meaning "infinite" properly there would be more than a billion concurrent demon invasions happening every second in DnD if a demon invasion happened on every world out of a billion once in its entire existence.
Infinity is BIG.
Realistically in DnD it would probably instead mean that there is another layer above each instance of the "multiverse"
But yeah, on the multiverse scale a demon invasion is "Just another Monday afternoon" same as it is in 40K.
HOWEVER, the multiverse is less connected than the imperium so that also plays a role, so you don´t really get the multiverse picture.
yea so technically its just a single world even if its a multiverse, for the people living there its just that one world, most if not everyone don't even know multiverses exist
For those Balor Lovers who run epic campaigns with Parties that swat Balor or Balors this a great scary alternative to provide that oh shit moment. I used one in an Orcus centered Campaign that ended with a gateway collapse to stop a demon incursion lead by an aspect of Orcus.
When these turn up, its like when the Balrog is approaching the fellowship of the ring in the Mines of Morea... the other demons just get quiet and scatter, its _Amazingly spooky_ as they *NEVER* do that, and then your ears are nearly ruptured by the battlecry of this god slaying engine of chaos.
I can definitely see these surpassing all other demons aside from strong lords. Where the demon lords are just that, lords of a layer where they have power, I see these Klurichir more like nomadic warlords, going through different layers looking for targets be they demon lords, rivals, paths to other planes, anything.
In this video: What if a superweapon was a genius and could act on its own?
I can see war god avatars calling upon other gods for help when facing one of these.
Fun fact: I think these guys inspired the World of Warcraft Burning Crusade "Terrorguard" versions of the WC3/Vanilla WoW doomguard since they also have the stomach face with normal jaws and pincers
That was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the thumbnail.
@Regular Slime Well, yes though there's also Moorcock and Howard inspiring both DnD and Warhammer.
Who would hold a higher position in a demon prince's army, a Klurichir or a Molydeus?
Molydeus are living embodiments of there masters will but weaker then a Klurichir.
My guess is that the molydeus would be below a Klurichir on it's own but when it speaks with the demon lords direct will it would out rank it do to being a direct mouth piece.
This would cause a sort of forced respect in both directions.
I could be wrong but that's how I would run it.
Also keep in mind that these are demons, "higher position" is only a meaningful concept until someone gets sufficiently irritated enough to go for the throat.
when D&D becomes Warhammer. great video as always!
still holding out for a fleshwarping. But I can wait.
Ok, so challenge rating aside, realistically what level should a group of 5 players be to face this thing where it’s actually a challenge and not lose out on what it’s supposed to be? And that can be with a retinue of other demons supporting it. I’m a little tired of my players basically just trouncing anything I throw at them, but also don’t want to completely overwhelm them.
Level 18 seems fine with 2 mariliths and 2 half demon hydras supporting the greater demon.
This thing is cr 24 ish when alone in 3rd edition for reference, and it's never alone as a leader of a literal army
if one were to halt a demon horde advancement upon their world with one of these demons at its head what would you say they should do?
Summon the dragons and angels.
@@AJPickett Don't forget the sleeping dire T-rex that is under the jungle city waiting to be given every buff that every available wizard sorcerer druid cleric etc can give them including fire resistance.You gotta let that thing rampage through the demon hordes.
blank blank Summon Tiamat and Bahamut
Ok AJ forgive me for this been on a bit of a classic Bionicle binge but the image you pick for the thumbnail immediately made me think of Karzahni,about as close to a demon as you can get in a Lego franchise. Fun fact a group called Red Star Games has put out a set of rules for Bionicle RPGs, if ever wanting some interesting Biomech creature inspiration I say check em out. I know you are primarily DnD, WH40K and all but never hurts to get ideas from the Time Before Time.
These monsters are just asking for an evil druid to become enamored with them. Would make for a really interesting character with a little homebrewing, or an unexpected BBEG when the Hive Lord suddenly shapeshifts into a very angry gnome who swears vengeance for murdering his family before vanishing down a tiny escape chute!
5:53 his stroke ends
Lol... MEDIC!
I have a weird question, how do devils prevent being overwhelmed in the bloodwar? Every battle essentially has to be a brutal choke point, but even then, given how devils require "wretched souls" to spawn, but demons sprout like red caps - strategically this becomes a problem over time. So yeah a weird question.
The Dark master aren’t individual devils more powerful than demons while angelic forces are stronger individually than both? The way I picture it is that demons need to travel to the nine hells so the abyss just can’t dump everything it has at the front door and as long as devils remain stronger individually, they can take out larger hordes
But this is just my idea on things. Not sure if it’s accurate or not
Strategy & tactics. Devils are nerdy, planning ahead. Demons are disorganized. Also, yugoloths scheme behind the scenes to ensure the continuation of the war, for their own gain. Plus, I bet a bit of influence from the upper planes is part of it, they don't want a side to win, because that means there's nothing distracting the winners from coming for others...more than usual.
Most demons never leave the abyss
Asmodeus already ended the Blood War. Problem solved!
@@juansantos-lq2kz Temporarily, its back in full swing again.
Ok, I'll admit, I thought the Balor was the biggest Tanari breed
John the herbalist G my understanding is that the Goristos are the largest, or at least it was.
@@lucianosgonzalez3561 I use "big" as a way to say "strong". That's a habit you pick up from pokemon nerds
I love this video. I’ve watched it at least 3 or 4 times now.
I had another epic creature that was rarely used due to its mass and power. Have you considered covering the xixecal???
An armada of mind flayer nautiloid ships I think somebody seen the trailer for Baldur's Gate 3
And I thought that was a sufficiently scary sight.
@@AJPickett let's be honest an entire Armada of nautiloid ships drop out of the air that's brown trouser time
So they can be affected by poisons/toxins, susceptible to necrotic damage and are most likely weak to radiant damage. It’s also beneficial to fight at a ranged distance to avoid that no healing aura.
So hope you are a few miles distance away from it and a tactical nuke handy? No problem.
I hate to bug you, but how's it going on the demons series? There hasn't been any in a long time.
Just building up steam
@@AJPickett My man with the goods, when it's you cooking, it's worth the wait.
@@Mortablunt JJ l00jjjjj I'll l900lm KK 9 it
I want to pick "mindless, blasphemous gibberish" as my starting language, lol
I CRAVE STATS FOR THIS THING!
3.5 has stats for them
In the 3.5 Fiend Folio
That i know but i'm evil and lazy and what 5e stats so i may make my players cry
Here's a 5E conversion from Dungeon Dad, who recently made a video on the Klurichir as well. Without magical items on purpose in order to allow you to customize them. It's also lacking the sorcerous abilities that AJ mentionned here as well: docs.google.com/document/d/1vsrPG_IeIhhS3Fa6FOIzFAgpKBT2EV-Qx46rzpjzvbk/edit
@@draxthemsklonst The link you shared only has the 3.5 stat block, which is useful for a 5E adaptation, but doesn't contain aforementionned conversion, unfortunately. (I shared that of Dungeon Dad below, in case it's useful for someone.)
This is one demon I never really took a liking to as for me, grognard that I am, the Balor (Type 6) demon always was and always should be the top-dog non-unique form of tanar'ri. I don't mind their existence in the lore despite being taken from Japanese anime, but they should not eclipse the balors.
Similarity to Satan from Ghosts and Goblins? Or am I crazy?
Too bad these didn't make it into 5e. Facing one of these would be an excellent surprise phase 2 boss if the party managed to cut down the balor [supposed] BBEG.
It's a real shame how many things haven't made it into 5E.
couldnt sleep at 4am...but luck TMG was here to help ease the morning
I love the demon/devil picks, but could you put in the description of levels of players your placing on facing. I know the creatures have a CR, but when you go after the Beholder you fight their minions, traps and lair effects.
I got a couple where they are captured, but not outright killed because I really do not like TPK. The only time TPK is when they are captured and the Evil Chromatic dragon gives them a task or they die, if the level 5 players attack. TPK.
So what is their intellect ability? Clearly they are sentient, but would they be considered intelligent by normal standards?
They're unimaginable suppernatural geniuses, even the second mouths incoherent babbling is distinctly profound. 🧐🧠📖🎼🎓💻
I imagine they probably also have cults of their own, maybe just step away from having first avatar
If someone random walked in between 4.50 and 5.50 they'd be like WTF are you listening to LMFAO
They have Nurgle in D&D? (00:45).
Many variations really.
@@AJPickett You are tzeentch !!! (or something!?!?)
Fun fact, Games Workshop originally started as a 3rd party D&D supplement! Making models for D&D adventures
How does the Molydeus stack up against this?
Someone in the comments said Klurichir's are CR 27 and Molydeus is CR 21.
In fiendish codex 1 for 3.5 they're listed at CR17 and the Molydeus at CR19
The 5e stats don't do this monster justice
Where are THOSE?
Yes where are those?
In the video......
@@midnightgreen8319 I thought you were talking about an actual stat sheet
@@kailowrez5126 the actual stats I know of are for 3.5, in the Fiend Folio I believe. That version eats the 5e one for lunch.
MOAR DEMUNZ!!!
Love the video! Can we get an Abishai video?
I think we should add a new channel motto.
Because Dragons.
Dang, with demons and devils like these eventually a god or goddess of good, probably nuetral good, may decide to conduct a war on all evil.
Look up the history of the blood war, the fact that Angels were fighting demons turn them into devils
You want Zurael again? Because that's how we got her the first time.
@@sithis36 Weren't those angels that took the same cruel measures as demons though? I'm talking about an entity that wants to wipe out all evil. A third party that fights against demons and devils alike while also staying good.
sithis36 Exactly. "Hell is hell." Not a kiddy picnic, given how dirty demons fight. You'd have to have an obscene, no, an infinite amount of celestial forces to rotate the tours faster than then horn sprouting, manical laughter brewing P.T.S.D.
Zachary Gadzinski Demogorgan has killed gods, the sittuation is more of an intrenched line(manned by devils) than a free flowing conflict. With limited resources, in order to continue actions, "sacrifices" must be made. The nine hells of the inferno is essentially a soldier factory. Gods don't have infinite power, which is exactly what a god would need to win the bloodwar - without becoming "the bloodwar".
I remember when my players first fought one, it was interesting.
I'll bet it was interesting.
Such a cool video
Are there any miniatures for these? Anything, 3d print included?
not that I know of.
@@AJPickett Shame, seems like something that would sell.
Now would this be a dentist's nightmare? Or their number one money maker?
Like it wouldn't be(unconsciously) trying to bite your hands, digits and arms off as you opperate... 😜😷🦷😴😵🦈It would totally be both. And as a greater demon, it would be loaded with enough cash to be worth it. And it would higher you "onperpouse". 💎💰🥳
A exciting demon for a trophy hunt. Eh?
That was awesome AJ!!! Thx
Really rad artwork at 1:04
Suggested pronunciation: (clur-rih-keer); reminds me of the Unseelie Fairy the Clurichaun, the counterpart of the Seelie Leprechaun. Clurichauns = nasty, evil drunk & Leprechaun = happy-go-lucky drunk.
this would be the exact opposite of little, happy and go lucky. :D
The Chad demon.
Great Video! Keep it up sir 😎
I heard Deamon hoard and I came as fast as I could!
phrasing
For its turn... The Klurichir summons Atropus and drops it in your midst. You die and serve. ORCUS GIGGLES
TEEHEEHEE.
The awesome adventure in the box set hellbound, the blood war details how fiends lost the ability to teleport
So.....is this thing stronger than the Molydeus???
Yes
Sheer power isn't what Molydeus are about. They are the eyes and voice of the demon lord they serve. The real power they wield is their ability to be a direct conduit to that which they serve. Klurichur are just a hair or two shy of being demon lord's themselves. They only defer to the demon lord's because of the greater ability to bring ruin that gives them. A weak or foolish demon lord might find themselves on the recieving end of a klurichur's wrath. And find themselves being on the back foot.
@@jacobfreeman5444 Thanks man. 😊👍
Can i get a list on the spellings of the demon names he mentioned if someone knows and doesn't mind
11:46 and 12:10 given that their limbs act on their own, and outside of their own awareness, and they can see through the eyes of lesser demons - going along the lines of a stagosaurus's second brain - added to 8:06 do they ever stop "ripping and tearing"? I can just picture other demons maintaining a set distance from klurichir at all times, besides battles. And i supposed they'd get endless joy out of pushing other demons inside the range just to see what happens. As far as empathising with a fictional character goes, the doomguy would feel so inadequate next to one. 😈🎸🎶
The Dark master Doomguy destroyed hell three times
@@charlottewalnut3118 True, but I think Doom demons are vastly weaker than D&D demons on average, especially considering the setting and tools used to fight them. Any random archer with enough arrows, an unenchanted bow and a great strafing game can presumably solo a cyberdemon, and on the flip side anything with high-level sorcerer casting is probably a nigh unbeatable threat to someone with human mobility and no access to magic like Doomguy. It would be interesting to see some stat conversions between the two but we're dealing with very different types of gameplay that as a result lead to very different power levels.
I clicked so fast, I really excited to see this video cuz I don't know how to say the monster name :) this is gonna be Nice !
I’m really hoping that when WOTC makes their next race book this will be one of their next Demons that get added💯😈
Is there any power in the multiverse that can go to toe with a klurichir and have a really good chance of winning?
Hecatoncheires would be my bet.
@@IdiotinGlans, are the Hundred Handed even in the dnd universe?
@@davidfletcher67033e Epic Level Handbook has them, the only things with higher CR are Ancient Prismatic and Force Dragons
Plenty. Would take something of similar rank but both heaven and hell has their Champions. And then you get into primordials even some far realm denizens. Do not let the intimidation factor of the klurichir fool you. The main strength of the abyss is it can basically field unlimited troops of unrelenting destruction. On an individual basis the other realms have many potent fighters that could even cow a demon lord. This is why letting demons get a good invasion going is a bad idea. Once they can leverage their near infinite respawn rate demons tend to win despite the superior powers of their foes
good video AJ
which is more powerful, this or the molydeus?
By the books, this is.
If I may be so bold as to squeeze a plug in here:
I'm a monster maker and backer of AJ on Patreon. I have my own Patreon as well as some monster books on DriveThru.
Plug finished. As to the Klurichir, how would you guys estimate the effects of a Vorpal attack ability on CR? I have two monsters I'm currently working on that have Vorpal or Vorpal-like (removal of hearts) abilities. In my case, I crunched the numbers ala the 5e DMG and then added +4 to the CR.
The stats for these monsters are currently on my Patreon. There are free versions too that are more of a shorthand document for planning the monster's construction.
Warhammer Nurgle Rep!
Dipping into the 40k images for this one #fathernurgle#DO40kVIDEOS
well now i know how to stat VenomMyotismon if i want to convert Digimon to D&D.
Another 5th edition monster?
lol no, the Klurichir was first released in the 3e Fiend Folio.
@@PureEvil3D i only play 1st and 2nd ed. Everything else is foreign to me
No not yet sadly. Let's hope so in the very future, because these guys are cool.
How does it measure up to a terrasque?
Not at all. The power levels of the outer planes are weird and strangely weak compared to many gargantuan material creatures like great wyrm dragons and the Tarrasque.
@@chuckwood3426 well you do have tiamat, Zarial and all the demon lords and lords of hell as they are all up around and a bit past dragons and such. Other then terrasque of course but thats another beast entirely being described as one of the fundamental destructers of the universe.
Creatures from the Prime have had to adapt to be so tough because of all of the threats from the other planes.
When all of your neighbors are busy trying to kill you, you either get really tough really fast or you die.
As badass as a Klurichir is, it's definitely more powerful as a spellcaster than a melee combatant. It has a mountain of spells and similar innate abilities that it can lay waste with. The axes and vorpal chest pincers are really there to give it something to do when it runs out of spells or gets bored. XD
Tarrasque are one of the creatures by the gods for the dawn war. Which was a war between gods and primordials. A war that was literally over the right to decide over the act of creation. Demons are a threat not because they are individually powerful enough to challenge gods but because they corrupt creation itself into a shape the gods are loath to touch. And that demons are seemingly endless. Or at least capable of calling up reinforcements just as fast as they get cut down. So the Tarrasque is individually stronger than all but demon lords but the sheer numbers demons can throw at it would make a Tarrasque just a speed bump.
AJ can you post another video about the warforged
So these guys beat out the molydeus
are you doing more videos on classes?
и снова накрутка просмотра и комментария для алгоритмов ;) ! лайк прилагается 3
🔥🖤🔥
First
мне понравилось ! накрутка лайка и комментарий , для алгоритмов ютуба =)
If you are doing a video specifically about demons and their many types and names, maybe practice the names until you can say them without mumbling. More practice, more run throughs and maybe type out the names with pronunciation support. You can do better than this AJ.
Thanks Mark, feedback is always appreciated.
@@AJPickett kluricher from what I can tell there the most powerful demons outside of the demon lords I thought that was the balor
is there a devil equivalent to this? a non archfiend devil above the pit fiend level of power like how these are above balors
A stupid Archfiend basically? Yes, certainly, but you would have to home brew it.
I mean Paeliryon's exist. At least in older editions, I'm not as familiar with 5e
