Characteristics
Escudogres are large, light pink muscular demons carrying two halves of an immense golden shield in their hands. They wear orange loincloths and a leather belt around their waist and a gold skullcap with a spike on their heads. They appear to be aged, as they have white beards, and they have two spikes on their large backs. The two halves of the shields they carry can be put together to form an enormous shield practically as tall as they are with a demonic blue-green face on it. The shields of escudogres are superb for defending against enemy attacks and protecting their weaker allies, as well as offense, either by bashing foes with them or exhaling a chilly breath from the demon on their shields.
