Description

Daivas are the primary demons that serve Ahrimanes and his lackeys. They appear much like humans, except that they have large heads, no pupils, large beards, and a have a stubby build. In battle they carry an assortment of weapons, usually swords and polearms...many of which are non-magical. If deprived of a weapon, they may still bite for 2-8 points damage (once per round). They may use illusion, polymorph self, fly, telekinese 1,000 gp weight, darkness 5' r., detect magic, telepathy, and teleportation (once per day). They may, also try to summon another of their type (with 60% chance of success), once per day.

(Few demons make their home on the plane of Pandemonium. The ones that do, are usually exiles or demons that fell from grace from their masters. Behemoth is one of the few demons (and was one of the more powerful) demons exiled to this plane. Perhaps, after a millenium, he can regain his throne on the abyss by defeating his detractors.)

Behemoth was dethroned from his plane by rival demon lords when other demons became jealous of his power. Rather than being killed by rival forces, Behemoth fled from his home plane with the few remaining demons still loyal to him.

He has since made his home in Pandemonium, although he longs for the day when he has enough power, and forces gathered, to retake his former plane which was taken over by other demon lords. Although he has lost considerable power and is exiled from his plane, Behemoth is still a powerful demon that , in melee, can either pommel with his fist (1-20), or rake an opponent with his bear-like claws if the opponent is on the ground and is of medium or smaller size. Additionally, any blunt weapon hitting him must be made at a -2 penalty due to his enormous amounts of fat surrounded parts of his body. He may also opt, in leiu of his melee attack, to bellow from his trunk causing 6-36 pts sound dmg thrice per day (no save allowed unless person is deaf, or some other magic is repressing sound. Magic resistance applicable). All in a 2" wide by 8" long 4" wide terminating cone is affected by this weapon. Any other outside this cone but still within a 10" will be deafened by the blast for one round (no save unless conditions mentioned above apply). He has, if encountered, a bodyguard consisting of 3-13 harpies and 2-12 hill giants.

He also has the following magical powers he may cast once per round, at 20th level ability: detect good, darkness(30' radius), teleport(no error), magic missile(5 missiles), dispel magic, read magic, read languages, telekinese 3000gp, and either gate in a type I demon (with a 50% chance of success) or a Bar-Lgura (15% chance of success). Once per day he may use wither.

Behemoth appears very much like a humanoid elephant, except that he has the feet of a bear. Skin coloration varies from dark brown to blue-grey.
