I am looking for advice about how to end my campaign. It is a modified Eberron campaign, and under the Mournland is an evil that could destroy the world much as it has destroyed the Mournland. And this evil creature is...and that is where I lose it.
It can't be one of the Lords of Dust Rajas because that is what the rakshasas believe is there, but the party knows that isn't right. I was thinking another demon lord (Orcus perhaps) but it just doesn't feel right.
I am leaning toward a Galchutt from Monte Cook's Chaositech, or possibly making my own Daelkyr. But I just feel like there is an obvious answer that I am missing. I am looking for something in the low-mid 20s CR range; something a souped-up 20th level party (souped up via powerful legacy items and unusual templates) can handle without going epic.
Does anyone have any good advice? Don't be shy about non-core sources: I have everything WotC has put out (maybe something in FR?) and can get my hands on any Dragon magazine (I think). I have most of the Scarred Lands books, everything Monte has put out, Tome of Horrors I (and would be willing to pick up the others). I have gone through my sources that seem most likely to have a cool solution to my problem, but I still feel like I am missing something obvious.
Thanks in advance.
ps: They just hit 17th level so I have plenty of time. I would just like to start dropping hints soon.
