*An [[amulet of stasis]] will keep it from teleporting you away mid-fight. You may wish to switch amulets as soon as you see a hellwing, as putting it on mid-teleport will incur [[magic contamination]].

* Unless you've been weakened by an [[orange demon]] or are swarmed by demons, hellwings usually don't pose much of a melee threat.
*Try not to create any particularly beefy [[corpse]]s while facing hostile hellwings. Alternatively, you could allow them to resurrect fallen enemies so you can get extra experience.
 
*If you're stuck in the [[Abyss]] and are out of [[scroll of teleportation|scrolls of teleportation]], you could wait around a hellwing and hope it forces you to teleport. It's still not an ideal method for escaping trouble in the Abyss, though.

A hideous skeletal demon. It swoops through the air on powerful wings of ancient withered skin, taking sadistic joy from harrying those who would try to flee its grasp.
