Builder Of Hell

During a long rest, Belphegor can create three flesh golems or three gorgons. The creatures are made from various fleshy and metal parts stored on Prime. The constructs obey his commands until they are slain or disassemble into pieces after 24 hours.

Legendary Resistance (3/Day)

If Belphegor fails a saving throw, he can choose to succeed instead.

Lord Of Openings

Belphegor retains his humble roots. Creatures in his presence find they don't have full control of their body's orifices. A creature that starts its turn within 20 feet of Belphegor must succeed on a DC 20 Constitution saving throw or suffer one of the following effects until the end of its next turn (rolled randomly or chosen by the GM). d4 | Effect 1 | Tears: The creature's eyes swell with tears, causing the creature to become blinded. 2 | Vomit: The creature vomits uncontrollably and is considered poisoned and can't speak. 3 | Defecation: The creature's insides cramp as it voids its bowels, becoming incapacitated in the process. 4 | Discharge of Wax: A thick wax fills the creature's ears, causing the creature to become deafened.

Magic Weapons

Belphegor's weapon attacks are magical.

Pitted Sockets

Mist swirls in the depths of Belphegor's pit-like eyes. Creatures who look upon Belphegor lose all benefits from their next long rest as they struggle to expel the devil's hollow gaze from their minds.

Prime

Belphegor rides a grand, floating palanquin named Prime. This overly complex device-turned-vehicle is immune to damage and can't be the target of spells or effects. It provides the demon lord partial cover from ranged attacks. Belphegor doesn't provoke an opportunity attack when he flies out of an enemy's reach while on Prime. If Belphegor is knocked prone, stunned, or incapacitated while flying on Prime, it will gently set him on the ground and disappear for 1 hour.

Actions

Multiattack

Belphegor makes three soul flail attacks.

Soul Flail

Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 32 (5d10 + 5) bludgeoning damage and 14 (4d6) fire damage. Each creature trapped in his flail by Form the Chain must succeed on a DC 20 Constitution saving throw or take 10 (3d6) psychic damage.

Endless Complexity (1/Day)

Belphegor activates the many complexities built atop Prime. All creatures who can see Belphegor must succeed on a DC 19 Wisdom saving throw or be stunned for 1d4 rounds as fruitless comprehension takes hold of their minds. A creature affected by this ability feels compelled to tinker, conceive, or otherwise invent an overly complex object related to its class and background. Any downtime taken during the next seven days after failing this saving throw is spent toiling on this object until ultimately, nothing comes of it.
