Ultrodaemons are faceless greater daemons.
Monster Manual descriptions[]
2nd Edition[]
The shadowy ultrodaemons roam the Lower Planes at will, and there are few craetures that will contest their power. They appear as faceless humanoids with large eyes that resemble fire-opals. Any being confronted by the gaze of these creatures must save against spells or stop fascinated (as from a hold person spell), watching the coursing of colors and patterns. Those saving will not see the ultrodaemon but someone loved or respected.
Once per round an ultrodaemon may at will cast the following: fear on touch, charm person or monster, teleport without error, ESP, clairvoyance, clairaudience, create illusion as a wand, suggestion, mislead, magic jar, and telekinese 6000 gp weight. Once per day they may use wall of fire; inscribe symbols of persuasion, insanity, or hopelessness; or create a blade barrier. All these spell-like abilities are performed as if the ultrodaemon were a 15th-level spell-caster.
There are said to be ultrodaemons that have mastered the arts of summoning, such that they may summon creatures from other plans, including the Prime Material Plane.
