Demogorgon

Two heads. Two wills. One catastrophic arrival. He rose from the Darklake as the ritual completed and erased Sloobludop from existence. The party was present for this. They ran.

Who He Is

Demogorgon is the Prince of Demons — not merely a powerful demon lord, but the entity that other demon lords acknowledge (through fear if nothing else) as first among them. Two baboon heads on a single massive body, each head a separate mind, each will pulling against the other in a constant internal war that somehow only makes him more dangerous. His domain in the Abyss is the Gaping Maw (Layer 88) — a world of ocean, jungle, and predatory madness.

He was not supposed to be in the Underdark.

Arrival — Sloobludop

Demogorgon was the first demon lord to manifest when Blip Blop Pod's ritual tore open a conduit between the Underdark and the Abyss. He rose from the Darklake — the vast underground sea that Sloobludop stood beside — and immediately destroyed the settlement.

The party was present. They fled.

Whether Demogorgon noticed the party specifically is undocumented.

Current Status

Demogorgon is in the Underdark. Exactly where is unestablished — demon lords do not move predictably. He is not coordinating with the other summoned demon lords; he is competing with them, as demon lords do. The Underdark is vast enough that he could be anywhere in it.

• Where is Demogorgon now? Is he moving toward the surface, deeper in, or ranging unpredictably?
• Has he come into conflict with any of the other summoned demon lords?
• Does Lolth attempt to expel or bind him? Does she succeed?
• Will the party ever face him directly?
