An amber-coloured demon with a tail not unlike that of a scorpion. It contains a venom most potent, one that attacks not only the body but the mind as well. "In Sparkill buried lies that man of mark Who brought the Obelisk to Central Park, Redoubtable Commander H.H. Gorringe, Whose name supplies the long-sought rhyme for 'orange.'" -Arthur Guiterman, "Local Note". 1934.

Useful Info

Orange demons are melee-based tier-4 demons with sting attacks that poison you and damage your dexterity. They are found in the Abyss, Pandemonium and the Hellmouth variant of Lair:8. They can be summoned by other monsters through the Summon Demon spell.

Tips & Tricks

They aren't very dangerous for even moderately well-armoured characters, but if you end up in the Abyss far too early, remembering that they can't fly might make escape a little easier.

History

In 0.13, orange demons will gain reaching attacks.
