UVUUDAUM

UVUUDAUM

"An uvuudaum is a humanoid creature with two standard human arms that protrude from the torso where expected, but whose lower body has six arms instead of legs, splayed spiderlike below it (tough loose clothing somewhat drapes its grotesque legs). The real horror is the taillike appendage replacing what would be a head on a normal creature. At the very end of the appendage is an ironhard spike."

Andy Collins, Bruce R. Cordeil & Tomas M. Reid, Epic Level Handbook

SIBRIEX

SIBRIEX

"The unsettling stink of rotting flowers surrounds the large, bloated figure that floats lazily in the air. The demon is hardly more than a malformed face the size of a wagon. Where its ears should be are instead a pair of atrophied arms with hands ending in tremulous digits. Instead of a body, everything below its neck is a writhing nest of puckers and stalks. It is tethered to the surrounding ground by four steel chains that end in razor-sharp spikes."

Ed Stark, Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss

RUTTERKIN

RUTTERKIN

"Rutterkin look much like ugly humans or humanoids. They are nearly hairless and have pointed skulls, large features and backward pointing ears. Rutterkin have misshapen bodies and limbs. They are one of the weakest but most bullying kinds of demons."

Gary Gygax, The Lost Caverns Of Tsojcanth

"This hunched and misshapen figure stands 6 feet tall. Its features are asymmetrical and deformed, and its mottled green and violet skin is hairless except for one or two uncomfortable looking patches of wiry bristles. The fiend has an elongated head with tiny red eyes that swell with hate."

Ed Stark, Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss

MIND FLAYER

MIND FLAYER

"This is a super-intelligent, man-shaped creature with four tentacles by its mouth which it uses to strike its prey. If a tentacle hits it will then penetrate to the brain, draw it forth, and the monster will devour it."

Gary Gygax, Strategic Review Volume 1 Number 1

The mindflayer's skin glistens with slime. Its skin color is a nauseous mauve, its tentacles being purplish black, A mind flayer's eyes are a dead while, no pupil being evident. The long fingers of each hand are reddish, but the hands are mauve."

Gary Gygax, Monster Manual I

DHARCULUS

DHARCULUS

"The dharculus is a creature native to the Far Realm. These particularly deadly creatures hunt all other creatures that cross their paths without regard to rank or hierarchy. They possess little fear, being well protected from its prey."

"The dharculus are swimmers of the Border Ethereal; however, they have a singular ability to insert their made tentacle ends into the Prime Material Plane. These tentacles appear as a swarm of blind eel-like creatures slinging through the very air in a deadly school. To those who can see into the Ethereal, the 'eels' are merely the protruding tentacle tips of the dharculus. Following the multiple tentacles back, one would see that they come together in a fused braid, a thick and rigid worm link tube coming the main body of the creature. The posterior end of the cylindrical body loops back towards the front the a giant question mark, ending in a huge, drooling maw filled with razor-sharp teeth. Five of the darculus' tentacle end in eyes instead of manipulator maws;"
