Magic Resistance. The vavakia has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Magic Weapons. The vavakia's weapon attacks are magical.

Trampling Charge. If the vavakia moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a ranseur attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 22 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the vavakia can make one stomp attack against it as a bonus action.

Actions

Multiattack. The vavakia can use its Frightful Presence. It then makes three attacks: with its ranseur, bite, stomp, or tail attacks in any combination. The vavakia can only make multiple attacks with its ranseur, and cannot use its bite and tail attacks on the same target.

Ranseur. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 24 (3d10 + 8) piercing damage plus 9 (2d8) acid damage.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 19 (2d10 + 8) piercing damage plus 5 (1d10) bleed damage.

Stomp. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d6 + 8) bludgeoning damage.

Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 17 (2d8 + 8) bludgeoning damage. On a critical hit, the target must make a DC 22 Strength saving throw or be stunned until the start of the vavakia's next turn.

Frightful Presence. Each creature of the vavakia's choice that is within 120 feet of the vavakia and aware of it must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the vavakia's Frightful Presence for the next 24 hours.

Soulfire Breath (Recharge 5-6). The vavakia exhales ghostly green fire in a 60-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 21 Constitution saving throw, taking 90 (20d8) necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The vavakia then inhales the breath, regaining 11 (2d10) hit points for each creature hit by it.

Regional Effects

The region containing a balor's lair is generally awful, while in the abyss one might struggle to find a difference, but on the material plane, it creates one or more of the following effects:

• The temperature within 4 miles of the balor's lair increases by 20 degrees Fahrenheit
• Spontaneous fires are more likely to occur and contained flames are more likely to go out of control within 10 miles of the balor's lair.
• Creatures within 5 miles of the balor's lair become agitated and more likely to lash out.

If the balor dies, these effects fade over the course of 1d10 days.

Vavakia

The demonic equivalent of a centaur with the body of a dinosaur and the torso and head of a dragon, all wielding a weapon and heavily armoured, vavakia's are among the most terrible and dangerous creatures that can be encountered in the abyss.

While balors stand in a position of prestige (as much so as exists within the abyss) and prefer for their minions to do their bidding for them, vavakias are engines of war and increase their power and control of their own empires in the abyss.

Magic Resistance. The brimorak has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Smokevision. The brimorak's vision isn't obscured by smoke.

Extinguishing Aversion. When the brimorak is hit by water or starts its turn submerged in water, it takes 10 (3d6) psychic damage.

Burning Blood. A creature hits the brimorak with a melee piercing or slashing attack while within 5 feet, or starts its turn within or comes within 5 feet of it for the first time on its turn while the brimorak is bleeding takes 7 (2d6) fire damage.

Flaming Weapons. Any melee weapon the brimorak wields and its hooves deal an extra 3 (1d6) fire damage on a hit (included in the attack).

Actions

Multiattack. The brimorak makes one attack with its shortsword, and one with its hoof.

Shortsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d6 + 4) piercing damage plus 3 (1d6) fire damage.

Hoof. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d4 + 4) bludgeoning damage plus 3 (1d6) fire damage.

Blood Spray (Recharge 5-6). The brimorak spits its boiling blood in a 40-foot line that is 5 feet wide. All creatures in the area must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 27 (6d8) fire damage and fall prone. On a success a creature takes half as much damage.

Fume (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). The brimorak emits a cloud of black smoke in a 10-foot radius around itself. The fog spreads around corners and its area is heavily obscured. When a creature enters the cloud's area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, that creature must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw, or become poisoned for 1 minute. It lasts for 1 minute or until a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses it.

Brimorak

Brimoraks are diminutive demons standing are about half the height of a human that resemble bipedal flaming goats. Starting fires is quite literally in the blood of these abyssal arsonists, as anyone who fights them in close quarters can tell you. They relish setting things ablaze so much, that the idea of putting out fires, or dare say themselves is horrifying to them.
