[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 2679385, member: 2012"] [b]Now to create the fiends![/b] Here is a new Demon Lord based on the Myrmyxicus from [COLOR=Red][I]D&D Fiend Folio[/I][/COLOR]. I don't have any background text for it yet, and would be happy to get some suggestions as to how this Demon Lord would fit in with its compatriots. Who should its allies be and, more important, its enemies? Personally, I'm leaning toward Asinmuntah being a ally of Demogorgon, although the demon is jealous of Demogorgon's infamy throughout the Mulitiverse. It hates Yeenoghu with a dark passion, but the reason why is only known to the two Demon Lords. However, his greatest enemy is the Demon Lord named Vesimurhata, also known as The Water Slayer. Of the Archdevils, Asinmuntah hates Mammon and Baalzebul the most. Anyway, here "it" is. (I hate referring to demons and devils as he or she, as they should be more alien then that.)
