lol, along time ago with my first d&d char I accidentally tried to chop down a treant, and almost got squished when I kept calling it an Ent (from Two Towers) I was just pointing out the similarities ("we delved too deep and unleashed a horror") lol the Balor, or maybe pit fiend, I always forget which (IIRC was actually based off of what Gygax thought the Balrog would look like in d&d, a direct plagiarism, with a cosmetic name-change)

BTW I meant the whole way the demon got into the gnome village, not the actual dealing with it part
