Since it’s finally feeling like spring, here’s a converted epic fiend that I’m using in my campaign: the demon lord Hacamuli, from Tom Moldvay’s excellent article “Demons, Devils, and Spirits” in Dragon 42. I’m really surprised that no one has yet resurrected old Hacamuli for 3e: it’s a 1st edition demon lord, it’s by Tom Moldvay, and it’s one of Orcus’s own fricken servants! How can a DM go wrong?Anyway, here’s the original text:HacamuliFREQUENCY: Very Rare (Unique)NO. APPEARING: 1ARMOR CLASS: 0MOVE: 12”HIT DICE: 60 hit points% IN LAIR: 50%TREASURE TYPE: UNO. OF ATTACKS: 2DAMAGE/ATTACK: 1-10/1-10SPECIAL ATTACKS: See belowSPECIAL DEFENSES: +1 or better weapon to hitMAGIC RESISTANCE: 60%INTELLIGENCE: HighALIGNMENT: Chaotic EvilSIZE: LPSIONIC ABILITY: 150    Attack/Defense Modes: ACE/ABEHacamuli is one of the messengers of Orcus. He appears as a pale, gaunt horse with hazy black eyes. Flies crawl over his mangy, sore-infested body. By gazing into a victim’s eyes, Hacamuli drains three life levels (save vs. death) with appropriate changes in hit points and skill level if the player character does not make his saving throw.In battle, Hacamuli rears up on his hind legs, striking with both front hooves. Each hoof does 1-10 points of damage. In addition, a hit by the right hoof will cause aging 3-30 years (no save) and a hit by the left hoof will cause disease (save versus death; if made, the disease is mild, if not made, the disease is terminal). Two mild diseases equal a severe case. Three mild cases or a mild case in addition to a severe case equals a terminal case.Non-magical armor, upon receiving a second hit from the right hoof, will disintegrate in a shower of rust. Magical armor must save versus disintegration each time it is hit. If the save is made, nothing happens to the armor; if not made, the armor loses +1 permanently. When all bonuses are gone, the magical armor is treated as non-magical armor.Hacamuli has a 60% chance of gating in 2-12 shadows, and a 50% chance of gating in 1-4 vampires. Hacamuli has the normal demon abilities of infravision and teleportation (no error). He can cast darkness in a 20’ radius. Maximum damage caused against him per attack is the same as for any other demon.</blockquote>
