description
Elliach collects and sells flasks of demon ichor. Exposure to demon ichor has warped Elliach in the following ways:
- Elliach's arms have become tentacles with fingers at the ends, increasing his reach by 5 feet.
- Elliach's ears sprouted wings and flew away. Consequently, he is deaf. He relies on lip-reading and hand gestures.
Elliach met Mabadi while on the run from debt collectors. Mahadi saw the value in paying off Elliach's debts and bringing him to Avernus to work in the Wandering Emporium. Thought to be insane by many of the other vendors, Elliach uses demon ichor in a host of magical experiments, none of which seem to have the intended results.
