	Barghests are a race of [[fiend]]s in the [[Dungeons & Dragons]] [[multiverse]] who can basically be described as [[goblinoid]] [[werewolf\|werewolves]] who devour souls. Uninspiring as that might sound, they're actually one of the oldest fiendish races in D&D to have their own distinct identities. True, it's not a very exciting niche - they're overshadowed by [[daemon]]s when it comes to the inhabitants of [[Gehenna]] - but it's solid enough to survive even in the shift between the [[Great Wheel]] and the [[World Axis]]. Their [[planetouched]] offspring are [[Worghest]]s.

	Barghests have a number of innate [[Enchanter]] spells, require magical weapons to hit, and are immune to fire - but if you can somehow force their canine for into a sufficiently large source of fire, they are forcibly transported back to [[Gehenna]].		Barghests have a number of innate [[Enchanter]] spells, require magical weapons to hit, and are immune to fire - but if you can somehow force their canine for into a sufficiently large source of fire, they are forcibly transported back to [[Gehenna]].

	Traditionally, barghests are said to rule over [[goblin]] tribes, due to their powerful magical abilities, but in 5e, it's stated that barghests actually prefer to prey on goblins. There is a sort of logic to this change; barghests are basically extraplanar [[goblin]] [[werewolf\|werewolves]], and werewolves in D&D have long been characterized as being compelled to feed on human flesh above all other possible sources, so it's basically doubling down on the idea of barghests being goblin werewolves. ~~It's still kind~~ of ~~stupid~~.

One origin story justifies this as Barghests being the result of a curse from the General of Gehenna, created after [[Maglubiyet]] broke a deal with the General. Barghests are occasionally born to normal goblin parents, but can transform into wolf-like fiends and are charged with killing 17 important goblinoids (17 supposedly being the number of oaths Maglubiyet broke) before they can return to Gehenna.
