If Iuz hits with both claws and his target is a medium seized creature with a neck, he grapples and restrains his target and starts to strangle them. (Escape dc 20) A creature being strangled counts as being suffocated and can survive for a number of rounds equal to its Constitution modifier (minimum 1 round). At the start of its next turn, it drops to 0 hit points and is dying. Iuz can’t use his claws again until the grapple ends. Spittle (1/round).

Iuz is the Cambion demigod of deceit, oppression, and pain. He is often called The Old One or The Evil. Unlike most deities and demigods, Iuz lives in the material plane, as the ruler of a large eastern country called The Empire of Iuz. Iuz was originally a strikingly handsome cambion. In the epic battle that resulted from Graz'zt striking out against Iggwilv in a bid for freedom, Iuz's handsome form was split into two "halves." He can either appear in the form of a gnarled, old human male, or as a big, red-skinned demonic figure. In his demonic form, he is 8 feet tall, with reddish skin, pointed ears, and long, steely fingers. In his human form, he is barely five feet in height and can attack with disgusting spittle that withers all that it touches.
