Characteristics

Gramarye gruffons are large bipedal green-skinned demons with bat-like wings on their back, long tails, and absent-minded expressions. They wear simple roughspun tunics, leather boots, and metal bracers around their wrists. These gruffons have learned some dark magic, but are still capable of hurling boulders like other gruffons. Gramarye is an archaic term for magic, sorcery, or occult learning.
