The Question: What do you look for in unofficial D&D products? Do you want new magic items, races, subclasses, spells, or even classes? Or do you prefer new rules and unique play style adaptations? Perhaps you just want a book that provides lore?
I look for fire ideas and whether I'm confident in or wanna support the author. That's pretty much it for me tbh.

Adohond’s Kitchen is definitely not the ideal place for a discussion thread like this one. Sometimes things get so crazy you’ll see threads on page two that have only gone 2 or 3 hours without activity.
I understand that the original thread was closed down and this subforum was the only alternative, but it’s unfortunate nonetheless. It’d be better if all the “tavern” threads had their own forum, or maybe a specific location in Play-By-Post.
Hi! I'm EJO. I am a silly billy who forgets to play Genshin Impact every day and totally DOESN'T simp for at least three different ninja girls. Some other facts about me:
Milio has been ditched. Now Xerath is my friend.
My average accuracy in Marvel Rivals is about 15%.
The OG demon lord, Dagon! He's not the most powerful, but is among the oldest and most clever. Dagon is the answer to the question of what waits for us in the deep.
Asmo. As a kid I thought he was charismatic and matched my idea of a lord of evil. I could understand why people would follow him. Many of the others are gross and repulsive. In my child brain you'd have to be extremely desperate to call up something like that. "I am here!" "EW gross, go back!!"

Demon Lord: hmm...I really like Orcus. I don't know why. I just think he's cool. I would love an adventure that expounds upon the lore of the wand of orcus (IE, the heroes soul trapped within it)
Archdevil: Levistus. Levistus is a very realistic archdevil, in that he offers power to people that are desperate. Only a dumb person (IMO) would make a pact with a devil when they aren't desperate, But Levistus is all about survival, revenge, coming back to fight another day. He only makes offers to people when they are most vulnerable, preying on their weakness. If that ain't cool, IDK what is.

I don't ever use them but if I did I would probably use Amdusias. He ain't official but he comes from ancient mythology. This demonic duke has the head of a unicorn and a body with clawed hands and feet. He is in charge of the cacophonous orchestra that plays in Hell and the great thing about him is that he will stop to play his music for you on command if you come across him. He also has the ability to make trees bend at will. I'm sure that power is always coming in handy.

I went down a brief rabbit hole looking this up. The names from Ars Goetica are somewhat familiar to those of us who know D&D lore. Basically all of the vestiges from the 3.5e Tome of Magic were taken from that list.

Nice, that's where I got it from. I can't imagine why Amdusias isn't a thing in 5e.
Mephistopheles. I’ve been vibing with him as a patron, ancestor, and BBEG for many games over many years!
I forgot about him. I like that demon dude because of his use in other works of art, like Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Beethoven's Last Nights album and Dr. Faustus.
Official demon lord is Lolth, but unofficial is Aky… i don’t know how to spell their name and I don’t wanna look it up right now but they’re the lord of roaches and filth.

HERE.This subforum is weird. Popular threads frequently get knocked back because people seem to like creating unpopular new threads.

Random question for everyone!
Favourite Demon lord and/or archdevil?

Just kidding... Maybe Demogorgon is a close second.

QotD: If you could be any D&D race/species IRL, and it wouldn’t be a problem, what would you choose and why?
