Doormen

The were a rarely-seen occult phenomenon associated with failed summoning rituals.
== Description ==
Doormen are a type of demon, rarely spoken of and perhaps never seen by any who had lived to tell of it. Doormen waited at the edge of the partition for individuals across reality to botch a summoning ritual for one of their gods. A misspoken word, the wrong offerings, an incorrect number of worshippers: any of these may part the veil—not enough to bring forth what they wanted, but enough for Doormen to slip into the liminal space and slaughter the summoners, harvesting their souls and taking trophies. Doormen stood about eight feet tall, sporting elephant guns the length of a man with swordlike bayonets and wearing iron masks fashioned from the vessels of captured offerings. Perhaps most disturbing, the Doormen appeared to constantly emit a garbled mixture of all the spoken rites they had ever interrupted, in all their languages—like slowly turning the dial of a radio, tuning into each for a few seconds.
