New Monster: Yanaloth the Demon Prince

The unrelenting heat of the Nine Hells enflamed the rage within Yanaloth as he sat upon the diamond throne, and crushed the souls beneath his hooves.

Before him quivered a lemure. "What message do you bring?"

"My Lady, She Who Must Be Obeyed, Queen of the Lakes of Fire, Empress of Pain" It's voice shook worse than it's body "Dark Mother of the 100 Headed Versuvus, Destroyer of the Arch-Paladins of Azoth and the Archon of the Golden Whisp-"

"Yes, Lagana, I know who she is, and what she has done far better than you. Get on with it!" Yanaloth's voice reverberated through the halls of lava and blood.

"Lagana wishes to ally herself with you against the machinations of your unworthy brother Orcus, oh Dark One."

The deep rumble in Yanaloth's chest may have been growl, it may have been a laugh, but either way Lagana's lemure knew only terror.

Yanaloth, a demon prince of the Nine Hells is a fearsome being of malace and hate. The very existence of existence irritates him in ways no mortal can begin to comprehend. He is nearly as old as existence itself, and has never for one moment understood even an instant of peace.

In combat Yanaloth vents his rage with his 4 great blades, whips with his split tail, and spits gobs of vile acid. In place of the spit, he can cast spells as a 15th level magic user and cleric. Yanaloth is ruthless in bringing death, and anyone killed by him can not be brought back from the dead without first destroying him.

Yanaloth is often accompanied by numerous other demonic beings, many of whom would feel no loss to see their prince destroyed. Yet their fear of being destroyed by him prevents them from acting against him.
