Ghour
The Ghour are a race of demons in the service of the demon lord Baphomet. Tools of their masters will, the are often found in the company of Minotaurs, Ogres, and Giant.
Demonic Visage. Resembling an especially muscular cross between and ogre and a minotaur, ghour stand up to 20 feet tall, with a thick hide and beastial features. Their horns are often more twisted and menacing than that of a minotaur.
Furious Foe. Ghour are fearsome foes, charging headlong into combat with a roar so terrifying it can leave its foes frozen in fear. Swinging fists and piercing with horns, a ghour can often be found with a foe impaled on its horns while it continues to battle.
Favour of Baphomet. Caution should always be shown when a Ghour is present in a group of giants, ogres, or minotaurs, as the ghour are seen as a blessing from Baphomet, and hostile action will almost certainly invoke the ire of Baphomet himself.

Actions
Multiattack. The ghour makes three attacks: two with its fist, and one with its horns. If the ghour hits the same target with all three attacks, it may use gore against that target as a bonus action.
Fist. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (2d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage.
Horns. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d10 + 4) piercing damage.
Gore. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 26 (4d10 + 4) piercing damage. If the target is a Large or smaller creature, it is grappled (escape DC 17) and restrained. The ghour can grapple one creature this way, and can't gore another target while doing so.
Noxious Breath (Recharge 6). The ghour exhales nexious gas in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw, taking 31 (9d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Roar (Recharge 6). The ghour emits and ear-splitting roar. Each creature within 60 feet of the ghour that can hear it must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be stunned and deafened for 1 minute. If the save fails by 5 or more, the target is paralyzed for 1 minute, and deafened permanently. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
