A marrashi, 9, is a type of monster that appears in SpliceHack and SpliceHack-Rewrite. Marrashi are a very high-level type of gnoll.

Generation
In the black market, a marrashi named Kite is one of One-Eyed Sam's assistants.[1]
Marrash are generated with several arrows, one special filth-encrusted arrow, a footbow, a green dragon scale mail and a random defensive item.[2]

Origin
Marrashi originate from Dungeons &amp; Dragons, where they are extraplanar evil spirits from the 2nd and 3rd editions that served other beings such as genies in return for treasure or the freedom to spread plagues (hence their association with sickness and resistance to it). Marrash possess humanoid bodies with the wings and talons of a large bird and jackal-like heads; they are deadly aerial combatants capable of powerful bow attacks, and their arrows were usually barbed and/or treated with a powerful contagion that can kill victims within a day if left untreated.
Growing marrashi spread their populations by attacking with these arrows, then consuming the soul of the dying victim; if the victim's corpse was buried, it would slowly be transformed into a new marrashi within one week, and often retained its previous memories. Marrashi that are summoned often attempt to increase their numbers in secrecy, with the hopes that their offspring would avenge their servitude. Gnoll shamans in service of Yeenoghu once summoned marrash to spread plagues among Faerûn's avian creator race, which is why the marrashi of SpliceHack are gnolls.
