Dungeons and Dragons 5e Monster Codex: Volume 2
Two complete monsters ready to be dropped into any Dungeons and Dragons 5e campaign. Fiendish Torturer When evil souls are sent to one of the Nine Hells to face punishment, it is often the insectoid Fiendish Torturers that are called upon to perform the task – and they enjoy that duty immensely. They have large eyes, a long head, and their insect-like carapace is a dark bluish purple. They are very adept in the use of scalpels and other torture implements, despite their long arms ending in claws.

A cult quickly sprung up around his new form dedicated to spreading his malfeasance around the world.

This Ain't Your Daddy's BBEG
Anyone who has been a DM for more than 6 years or so probably learned that to make NPC's (especially ones meant for combat) you just pick the level you expected the party to meet them and create a character of that level. Before 5e, the challenge rating was directly tied to the character level of your NPC. It is no surprise then that many of us fall into the same trap in 5e, and teach others to do so. The thing is... NPC's are not player characters. I know that sounds obvious, but it means they do not have to follow the same rules for their creation.

All Glandoum wanted to do is learn. Not about iron and leather, but history... nature... and magic. Every free moment not at the forge was spent in a book.
