Fiend
(Quake monster)
Context
This is a monster from the landmark Quake video game in 1996. For more context, see our Quake Player Character profile.
Powers and Abilities
Fiends are swift, agile beasts with terrible rending claws.
History
These savage beasts are the result of mystical experimentation by Shub-Niggurath. As such, they are ubiquitous throughout Shub-Niggurath’s realms.
Description
Fiends are hunchbacked, hairless humanoids with lithe, elongated limbs ending in wicked scythe-like talons. They have a deceptively swift loping gait.
A wicked maw looking like the smile on a death’s head dominates the eyeless faces.
Personality
Guard a specific location. Charge and attack any intruders.
DC Universe History
Any malevolent mystical entity could seize control of a S.T.A.R. Labs teleportation experiment. These beats would haunt the invader’s dimension in great numbers, posing a great threat to unwary PCs.
