Demon Lords

[Alzrius]

i know that Zuggy's article featured two new demon lords as well, but i don't have my own copy yet. anyone care to name them here?

It mentions that Zuggtmoy "has often been seen cavorting in the poisonous laboratories of Haagenti, Lord of Alchemy."

There's also a long paragraph devoted to talking about Yibyiru, the Rancid Lady of Bitter Bile. This minor demon lord could be Zuggtmoy's child, or perhaps her mother. She serves as a combination major-domo and chabermaid. She was the reason that Juiblex didn't completely take over Zuggtmoy's layer in her absence.

An even better question would be are there any more archdemons besides those below floating around somewhere? Greyhawk, Mystara, Forgotten Realms, Dragon mag, Dungeon mag, Polyhedron, etc?

As far as Mystara goes, Orcus and Demogorgon might count, though they've been described elsewhere.

Other than that, there really aren't any archdemons. The cosmology as far as that sort of thing goes really is muddied a bit by the Immortality issue. In the original Immortal's set, Immortals of Entropy and Demons were one and the same- hence Demogorgon and Orcus were both demons and Entropic Immortals (gods); same goes for Alphaks (with a manifestation form of a Balor). There really isn't/wasn't the distinction between Gods/Immortals and other inhabitants of the Outer Planes on the level of the demons/devils/daemons that was/is found in other editions.

That being said, I think the Mystara cosmology certainly is flexible enough that such concepts could easily be worked in. In which case, along with Orcus and Demogorgon, I'd nominate Alphaks, probably Atzanteotl, Masauwu and Leptar at the very least as archdemons or archdevils.

About Haagenti the Lord of Alchemy, he is one of the demon lords mentioned in Green Ronin's Armies of the Abyss, along with a host of other LAME demon lords like Shax, Raum, Seere, and Ipos.

I like some of those. I forget which ones I said I didn't like before.

Anyway, Haagenti was also mentioned in one of James Jacobs' Demonomicon articles, which was a nice tip of the hat.
