Demonomicon
Oublivae, Demon Monarch of the Barrens

Today's Demonomicon excerpt explores a Demon Queen: Oublivae, the Demon Monarch of the Barrens!Ā
As a lv30 threat, she finds her places amongst the Demon Princes at a higher rank than that of Yeenoghu, Baphomet, and Coridcuhn, but on par with Turaglas and slightly weaker than Graz'zt and Dagon.

As for her intelligencesā€¦ don't ever go saying that a Demon is stupid.Ā She's on par with Iggwilv, Vecna, and Graz'zt.Ā

Watch yourselfā€¦Ā and talk about her here.

Exactly the point of a book like this.

Great if you want to inspire teamwork in your party (as lone wolves die easily around her).
Her nihilistic cult is interesting.

EDIT: She's huge though, making her a lot bigger than Kerrigan. :P

The statblock and lore are awesome, though I still miss my Malcanthet (which probably won't show up after the succubi have been moved to devil status).

Exactly what I thought, she even has the same colour scheme with the green, dusty gray/brown and purple.

As for Melcanthet, I do indeed wonder if they'll just completely remove her, that would be a pity, mind you I already object to suddenly moving Succubi, especially when them being Demons has LOADS of history.
Succubi were iconic Demons and featured in a LOT of stories and adventures of DnD canon and Melcanthet had a lot going for her as well.

Wow, that's a little uncanny.

I like the art.
