Demonomicon Speculation

[Shroomy]

Well, work is kind of boring today, so I've been mulling over what demon lord will be explored in Issue 369's Demonomicon? We've already had Yeenoghu, so he's definitely out. Orcus was in the MM, so I'm not sure if they would explore him in depth like that; ditto for Demogorgon in MMII and Graz'zt in MotP. Would they go with a demon lord that has already appeared in the 3.5e version? Personally, I could see this and it would be nice to have their 4e stats, but I'm hoping that's not the case; still, the presence of an article on Minotaur's in the same issue could point to Baphomet. Would it be a brand new demon lord? An obscure one? Or maybe one of the biggies that never got a 3.5e treatment, like Pale Night or Obox-ob? What do you think?

I was thinking Baphomet too. He's been mentioned a bit in earlier sources (MMI minotaur entry, frex).

I'd prefer Baphomet, as my 4E game already has lots of connections to him. (H2, I'm looking at you!)

Well, according to the ToC, its Baphomet.

Well they're going to have some seriously big shoes to fill, doubly so since Baphomet was covered during the Paizo run of Dragon.

Good on them. At least this time it won't cost $10 per issue.

I prefer that they start from scratch anyway, so that I can learn about how Baphomet fits into my PoL 4E game.

From the ToC, it appears that Baphomet appears in the upcoming MotP, so I wonder what the Demonomicon article will cover. I'm assuming planar realm, exarchs, and a couple of servitor races (maybe a couple of new flavors of minotaur).
