Description

Jangir was born of a powerful demon and a gnoll woman.[3][2]

Though text description of Jangir is not given, he is shown in illustrations. This towering half-fiend has patchy skin alternately both scaled and furred. Jangir's lizard-like hide is a sickly green and his fur is a ochre-brown. He has six ruby-red eyes on his face, and what give the appearance of being at least seven more eyes in the sickly green of the scaled skin down his right shoulder and arm. All over his body are spikes and horns, most prominently all about his shoulders, spine, and neck.
Jangir has enormous cloven hooves and long, sharp talons on the tips of his fingers.
The skin of his face is gaunt and taut, with his lips and the skin of his mouth receded showing his bare gums. His teeth are jagged and seem irregularly placed.

Personality

Jangir is known to rule Naresh with an iron fist in the name of Yeenoghu as a priest-king.

Possessions

The Flail of Stratis was brought to Jangir by a gnoll child several weeks after Stratis' death.[3] He considers it destiny that it was brought to him.[1]

Activities

Jangir united the tribes of Naresh under his leadership after he attained the Flail of Stratis and declared himself Priest-King.
