Hellmouths

Born from the fevered nightmares of a realm that corrupts all within it, the Hellmouths are abominations that should never have drawn breath in any realm. Each mouth that riddles their reptilian hides represents a different scream—the anguished cries of countless souls devoured during the Hell mouth's primordial rampages—and they hunger still with that same insatiable appetite. The creatures were bound by elder forces to the deepest pits of the abyss, their venomous spines serving as a constant reminder of their cursed nature, each spike capable of rotting flesh from bone with a mere scratch. Legend whispers that Hellmouths are not truly alive but rather wounds in reality itself, places where the barrier between dimensions grows thin and hungry; their very presence causes the fabric of existence to weep and writhe. When one occasionally breaks free from its infernal chains, entire civilizations flee before it, for its maw—large enough to swallow fortifications whole—can gnaw through the mightiest materials as though they were parchment. Some scholars believe that Hellmouths are punishment incarnate, cursed to wander the worlds as harbingers of apocalypse, forever seeking the end. Yet perhaps most terrifying is the possibility that they are not prisoners at all, but merely sleeping, and one day all their chains will shatter at once. During the war Eve managed to release one and bring it to battle, a feat most demons deemed too dangerous, a sign that there is nothing she will not do for victory.

Multiattack

The Hellmouths can make three attacks: one with its Bite and two with its Spikes.

Bite

Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 4d12 + 10 piercing damage and the target must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned.

Spikes

Ranged Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, range 60 ft., one target. Hit: 3d10 + 10 piercing damage and the target must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or take an additional 3d10 poison damage.

Devour Reality

The Hellmouths can consume a 10 ft. cube of matter within 60 ft., dealing 8d10 necrotic damage to all creatures in that area. A DC 20 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.

Nightmare Howl

The Hellmouths unleash a terrifying roar. All creatures within 120 ft. must succeed on a DC 20 Wisdom saving throw or be frightened for 1 minute. They can repeat the save at the end of each of their turns.

Nightmare Manifestation

Hellmouths can instill fear in creatures within 120 feet, imposing disadvantage on saving throws against fear effects.

Abyssal Resilience

Hellmouths have resistance to psychic and necrotic damage, as their form is woven from the fabric of nightmares.
