Giant slugs dwell away from light, preferring the depths of dungeons and similar places. Giant slugs are able to eat substances like wood or burrow through very hard earth using their rasp-like tongues.

Giant slugs appear as larger versions of normal slugs. They are about 25 feet long and can grow to be 50 feet in length. Most are pale gray in color with a pale white underbelly.



COMBAT
A giant slug attacks with its bite, but prefers to attack targets with its highly corrosive spittle.

Spit Acid (Ex): Stream of acid, 5 feet high, 5 feet wide, and 60 feet long, once per round, damage 4d8, Reflex half DC 17. Giant slugs are immune to their own acid and that of other giant slugs.

Immune to Blunt Weapons (Ex): Due to its soft tissue and lack of bones, a giant slug takes no damage from bludgeoning attacks.

Blindsight (Ex): Giant slugs have no visual organs but can ascertain all foes within 60 feet using sound, scent, and vibration.

Salt Vulnerability (Ex): A giant slug is highly susceptible to salt, taking 1d8 points of damage per pound of salt.





The Giant Slug first appeared in the 1e MM (Gary Gygax, 1977).

Thanks, RM, you're welcome to contribute, but if you're posting normal monsters, post them in the evil denizens thread, rather than this one. I'm trying to reserve this one for unique (one-of-a-kind) evil monsters like demon lords, etc. who actually have names.

[Helspanth]

Hey Memnoch what about Mephistopheles?
IIRC he was the second in command in the hierarchy of hell!

[Memnoch]

Ask and you shall receive!

The eighth plane of Hell, Caina, is ruled by Mephistopheles. His main
aim is to wrest the seventh plane from Baalzebul and with the strength

[Tim Tam]

The stats are changed a bit since moving to a new server. Check out http://www.enworld.org/cc/converted/...l/asmodeus.htm

Notice the different CR, 37. Demogorgon or Fraz-Urb `Luu would kick his butt, both of them still have CR of 45. I guess he hasnt updated them yet. Anthraxus used to give em a run for their money with CR 45, but he's down to 32 now. Not that it really matters, at their power levels its more a question of home ground advantage then how much heat you're packing.

Challenge Rating: 45

Alignment: Always chaotic evil
Advancement: —

Fraz-Urb ‘Luu dwells on an abyssal plane that seems totally flat and featureless. The dreary place is actually alive to the demon’s wishes, and shapes itself accordingly into hills, caves, etc. From the experiences of two individuals who have been there and returned, the horrible place is not only depressing and sickening, but magic items there lose their dweomer. Therefore, it seems almost certain that any magic treasure Fraz-Urb ‘Luu possesses (save for artifacts and relics) will be spoiled.

For several centuries Fraz-Urb ‘Luu was trapped under Castle Greyhawk in a stone prison. Many adventurers unwary enough to converse with him were destroyed forever. Eventually two powerful individuals, a wizard and a cleric, were duped into performing a series of heroic deeds that set him free. As their just rewards, the demon prince transported them to his abyssal lair where they still serve as his slaves.

Fraz-Urb ‘Luu is looking for his staff, a powerful artifact which is said to combine the powers of several staves and rods. The dreaded artifact was stolen from him while he was imprisoned, and even the other demon princes do not desire its recovery.

Fraz-Urb ‘Luu appears as a hulking, 18-foot tall humanoid. His body is covered in short, coarse, blue hair. His feet are broad and splayed, and his hands are large and stubby. His visage is beautiful, but cruel, and the mouth is huge and fanged. Large, ragged ears jut from the central portion of the skull to beyond the domed, rather pointed, head. He has pale gray skin and two vast wings of dull black project from his back. His tail is hairless, from a gray base to a pale blue tip.

COMBAT
Fraz-Urb ‘Luu will pummel and bite a foe in combat, or use his tail to slash an opponent or entwine an opponent while he bites and pummels him.

One of his favorite tactics, after a group of would-be-slayers has been worn down, is to summon another demon prince to deal with them. Fraz-Urb ‘Luu will teleport away when the prince or lord arrives.

Spell-Like Abilities: At will—blasphemy, deeper darkness, desecrate, detect good, detect law, fear, greater dispelling, hypnotic pattern, mislead, polymorph self, polymorph other, pyrotechnics, read magic, suggestion, symbol (any), telekinesis, teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), tongues (self only), unhallow, unholy aura, unholy blight, and wall of fire; 1/day—plane shift, power word blind, and prismatic spray. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 24 + spell level).

Spells: Fraz-Urb ‘Luu casts arcane spells as a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 24 + spell level) and divine spells as a 20th-level cleric (save DC 23 + spell level). He has access to the domains of Chaos, Evil, Knowledge, and Trickery.

Psionics (Sp): At will—astral projection, charm monster, deeper darkness, detect evil, detect law, dimensional anchor, dispel good, levitate, and protection from good. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 24 + spell level).

Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, Fraz-Urb ‘Luu must hit an opponent with a slam attack or his tail attack. If he gets a hold he tears the flesh.

Tear (Ex): Fraz-Urb ‘Luu automatically hits a held opponent with all his melee attacks each round he maintains the hold.

Summon Demons (Sp): Three times per day Fraz-Urb ‘Luu can automatically summon 1d2 balors, 1d3 nalfeshnees, or 1d4 mariliths.

Summon Prince or Lord (Sp): Once per day Fraz-Urb ‘Luu can attempt to deceive another demon prince or lord into believing that he or she has been summoned by the party (so long as the party and Fraz-Urb ‘Luu are on the same plane) with a 70% of success. If the deception succeeds, the summoned demon prince (lord) or princess (lady) appears believing to have been summoned by those opposing Fraz-Urb ‘Luu.

Immunities (Ex): Fraz-Urb ‘Luu is immune to all mind-influencing effects and detection spells and effects.

Demon Qualities (Ex): Immune to poison and electricity; cold, fire, and acid resistance 20.

Telepathy (Su): Fraz-Urb ‘Luu can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.

The Sixth circle of Hell rests upon a huge rockfall. Most of the plane is made of city-sized angular black stones, and these cover almost the entire realm. The piling up of these stones creates vast ridges and gigantic black canyons. The sky of the plane is alight with blood-red steam, and the odor of burning permeates the oppressive air as stinking vapors rise from the regions below. The layer of black stones, hundreds of miles in thickness, rests upon an infinite sea of lava, which heats the vast pits of boiling pitch in which the damned souls are tormented. The entire plane is dotted with the copper-shod fortresses of the arch-devil Moloch, a grand duke of hell and viceroy of Baalzebul. Baalzebul denies Moloch a permanent home, and forces him to move from location to location often.

Great enmity exists between Moloch and Geryon. If it were not for Baalzebul, there would be open warfare between the two, much to Moloch’s detriment and Mephistopheles’ delight.

Moloch is a great, square-bodied creature standing around 14 feet tall. He has red-orange skin, short thick arms and legs, and huge square hands and feet. His feet and head are horned. His head is huge with slanting eyes and gaping mouth.

COMBAT

Moloch attacks with either a claw/claw/bite routine or his weapon and spell-like abilities.
Spell-Like Abilities: At will—animate dead, blasphemy, burning hands, charm person, comprehend languages, desecrate, detect good, detect magic, detect thoughts, dispel magic, fireball, fire charm, fly, geas/quest, hold person, improved invisibility, magic circle against good, major image, polymorph self, produce flame, pyrotechnics, raise dead, read magic, see invisible, suggestion, teleport without error (self plus 50 pounds of objects only), unholy aura, unhallow, wall of fire, and wish; 1/day— flame strike, meteor swarm (any) and symbol (any). These abilities are as the spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC
18 + spell level).
Spells: Moloch casts arcane spells as a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 18 + spell level) and divine spells as a 20th-level cleric (save DC 18 + spell level). He has access to the domains of Evil, Law, and Strength.
Psionics (Sp): At will—astral projection, charm monster, deeper darkness, detect evil, detect law, and levitate. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 20th-level sorcerer (save DC 18 + spell level).

Damn....I´m sure glad I didn´t bump into some of these guys or dolls in BG2ToB that would probally have been quite devastating even for my lvl. 26 party of mages...Ouch!
I really don´t know a lot about these things....I only play the game and enjoy the forum, but is it possible to make these monsters with IE or something like that?


Sparhawk fell to his knees as the great God finally appeared to him.
