[QUOTE="Sammael, post: 1830355, member: 4475"] By established Realmslore, Dendar the Night Serpent is one of the three Elder Eternal Evils (the other two being Kezef and the Ityak-Ortheel, the Elf-Eater). Dendar is the living embodiment of Toril's nightmares, and the harbinger of the end of Toril, the gods, and Realmspace. She lives in a cave near the Crystal Spire (in the Grey Waste according to the Great Wheel cosmology). According to legend, when the end draws near, she will crawl out of the Peaks of Flame and move forward to eat the sun. Of all the gods, only Ubtao was willing to commit himself to being on the eternal watch against Dendar, which is why he was given supreme rulership over Chult. If Ubtao doesn't stop Dendar, the end. Dendar is really an aspect of Nidhogg, the Norse world serpent, who gnaws on the roots of Ygdrassil (which is why her lair was set in Nilfhelm in the Grey Waste) and will die at Thor's hand at Ragnarok. Kezef the Chaos Hound is also known as Ravager of the Heavens. He lives to spread chaos, and was at some point imprisoned in Pandemonium by the collective efforts of FR deities (good and evil). At some point, he bit off Tyr's hand, broke free, ran amok in Cyric's Bone Castle, and chased Mask. It appears as if he has been somehow subdued again, because 3E makes no mention of him. Yet. Ityak-Ortheel, the Elf Eater, is Malar's "pet." It is a killing machine that lives in the Abyss and is only brought fourth by Malar's whims. It particularly enjoys eating elves (because he only derives sustenance from elven spirits), hence the name. All three Eternal Evils are Entities that rival the power of gods. They cannot be destroyed, although they can be hurt and forced to flee (if sufficiently wounded). Their stats appeared in 2nd edition [i]Powers and Pantheons[/i]. [/QUOTE]
