Description
The Aazerach is a massive, terrifying reptilian horror. It has an innate sense for any being possessing knowledge that their deities, Fate and Destiny, have decreed should not. They have black skin wreathed in purple flames, however rare powerful variants are orange or green. Long, red talons extend from their feet. They possess five white eyes, but are completely blind and rely on Tremorsense. No being can escape their unbridled fury, even creatures more powerful than them, such as Ancient Krakens, Demon Lords, The Tarrasque, and even Gods. It shapeshifts to fit into different situations, but typically is roughly 80 feet tall, 140 feet long, and 80 tons.
Lair and Lair Actions
The Aazerach's lair is a large underground labyrinth made of obsidian and gnarled black trees and bramble. Blights, Shadows, Demons, Devils, and other fiends roam the infinite halls. It resides in a pocket dimension, and the only way to escape is to either kill or get permission to leave from the realm's 10 Caretakers, which are typically Bone Devils, Pit Fiends, Balors, Death Knights, Liches, Beholders, and Dragons. Or, you can call on permission from the Aazerach itself, but this typically results in instant death. The rare survivors (the even fewer number that retained their sanity) have compared it to the planes of Shadowfell, Abyss, the Maze Spell, and Limbo all put together.
