I've long been a fan of the demigod Kyuss, but know very little about him-basically the info from Avolokias, Spawns of Kyuss and Ulgurstatas. Does anybody know where I can learn more about him? And no, Dieties and Demigods is not the answer. I looked him up in Wikipedia and followed some of their links, but there wasn't much, and we all know about wiki's consistancy. Is there more about him in AD&D? If so does anybody know whick books I should pursue? Thanks in advance for any help.

You are looking for the "Age of Worms" adventure path by Paizo Publishing. They appeared in Dungeon issues #124-135. This whole group of adventures features Kyuss in great detail also adding new Kyuss based monsters in some issues and a lot of fluff. There is also a good amount of additional information on Kyuss based magic and other interesting tidbits in the Wormfood articles in the corresponding Dragon Magazines. If you just want stats for Kyuss himself, he is presented in all of his deific glory in Dungeon issue #135. The best part of this is that everything in Dungeon and Dragon are 100% official content so this is the real deal.

On a related note, Kyuss is also a band. You can find a couple of their songs on Youtube. "Demon Cleaner" is one of their better ones.
