Description
Vile Origins. The Coven Horror is the result of multiple witches who had made a deal with a demon and failed to live up to their end of the agreement. The witches were fused along with the bodies of the wailing of children that they sacrificed in the name of the demon in order to constantly remind them of their failure. Each head of the horror is in control of the main trunk, but they will frequently snap at each other if they feel that the other is too close to their own head. The horror is left to wander the Abyssal realm, spreading agony and despair throughout. They will take any chance to escape to the prime material plane so that they can spread horror and death, believing that will fulfill their original pack by killing anyone they come across will release them from their torment.
Foe of Demons. The witches that make up this monstrosity will always remember the demon that bound them together. While prone to quickly attacking the first thing they see in hopes that it will release their bond, the three witches will occasionally listen and help those who promise to show them to their demonic lord. Coven Horrors are fickle each of the heads continually come up with a way to free themselves, the most common choice being to kill those nearest to them in order to gain favor with their demonic binding. Demons fear these abominations, tending to steer clear of them throughout the Abyssal plane.
