Male Medusae with Snakes have been around for a decade at this point. The Marilith is not from Myth.

That's still a thing, minus the subordinate thing. There is Nalfeshnee, Marilith, and Balor greatest of their kind. They are the mightiest of those demon types and all the demons of that type share their name. If say Nalfeshnee were to be slain by Trantolox another nalfeshnee, then the type...

But lack the snake hair, have different powers, and overall don't really look like Medusae. 5e just had male Medusa instead of Maedar. Marlos was our primary and early example of a male medusa and I think he worked well.

I think this book is shorter.

Probably as much as demons have genders. The Marilith image looks fairly masculine.

No. There are just people who agree with you that they are not fans of the art. It doesn’t mean anything more than that.

The Kali influence is clearly with the six armed sword fighting style. The Snake woman was not a warrior like the Kali statue. Like Kali the goddess is not the influence as much as that statue and how it fought.

Do you mean the Maedar or actual Medusae but male.

Also Male Medsuae already existed for all of 2014 a major villain in Princes of the Apocalypse was one.

I could tell it was a Marilith though for sure a departure

Lich is a massive winner.

Could you elaborate on this. I am not sure what the 4e Approach was that changed the Blood War for you?

Lots of them had the trait Magic Weapon.

The justification for how it started is that the Devils attacked the Demons who had been attacking everyone, the Demons attacked back and have kept going at the Devils ever since out of momentum. Most demons engage in the blood war cause that's where the fighting is.

Cause they don't like them very much, and it's an acceptable target. Most of the Demons are not stupid and they enjoy rampaging on creatures different to them more than other demons.

The Demon Lords are more focused on the Abyss for the most part. It’s the tons of other demons that focus on the Blood War and attacking the Nine Hells.

Reminds me of a 3e adventure where Graz’zt and Lolth came up with a scheme to end the Blood War. Inviting representatives of various Demon Lords to the Demon Web to sign a pact (under either Lolth’s or Graz’zt name they were both competing and sabotaging each other to claim credit) the pact was...

The Celestial Hosts explicitly don’t try and help either side cause they hate them both with a few exceptions who generally go after both sides. It’s better to let evil eat itself. The Devils are outnumbered by the Demons, but they have better tactics and organization while the Demons are wild...

They won’t split again if they get split because of becoming bloodied. Cause the new puddings would be bloodied by default and not have a chance to become bloodied. At least by my reading.

Those are largely the same minor nitpicks I don’t care about. I don’t really find the Eve of Ruin stuff negatives. I will find out with time if it’s too easy. (Though I really don’t agree that Vecna himself is too easy)
