The greater vruul has tough, leathery hide, as black as midnight. Bat-like wings sprout from its back, but they do not look large or strong enough to support its weight in flight. The vruul's claws are long, sharp and appear to be stained with the blood of many victims. Its eyes are eerie, solid green orbs that seem to glow with an inner power.

Other information

The greater vruul appear rarely in the Sheruvian monastery. The summoning chamber is behind one of the locked doors.

Behind The Scenes

These larger versions of the vruul have the same appearance as the lesser vruul, including the eyes as "solid green orbs" which is related to the obsolete gods lore. In the original post-I.C.E. Age documentation Marlu had his appearance altered to more closely resemble the vruul: "A hideous demonlike creature, he is the master of the vruul. He has black skin, leathery wings, large luminous green eyes and large, red claws." In the modern lore his relationship to the vruul is merely implicit in his crypt delving. There were also "decaying vruul" invasion creatures on Mount Aenatumgana when the Drake's Shrine was opened, which if consistent with the original lore, likely implies they were very ancient vruul long outside their urns.
