Technically, these questions are relevant to both 1st and 3rd edition, because I'm trying to find out if there is any crossover.


First edition Fiend Folio had monsters called "Mezzodaemons" and "Nycadaemons," residing in the Lower Planes between Hell and the Abyss. Were these creatures carried into 3rd edition under a new name, or did they simply vanish?

Related query. The good 'ol Type IV demon. What is its name?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer

In 2e these are named Mezzoloth and Nycaloth.
Maybe these names are used in 3e as well.

Thanks to both of you for your timely replies.

I still need to know however; did the mezzodaemon/mezzoloth make it into 3rd ed in any form? A form of yugoloth, perhaps?

Thanks for the Type IV info, too. I thought it was the nalfeshnee, but I wasn't sure.

I am certain I have seen Nycoloth and Mezzoloth in 3.5.

Monster Manual III I believe.

Any yes, pretty much anything with a loth on the end of it is part of the yugoloth race, cept sloth.

Ah, ha! Thanks a bunch, oralpain. I'll check it out!

I thought a sloth was like a yugoloth's lazy cousin. :D

Yeah, I got like 6 mezzoloth miniatures from the Blood War booster packs, so they have to be somewhere.

3rd edition, Arcanda. 3rd edition Dungeons & Dragons. I was trying to find out if the Mezzodaemon of 1st edition ever made it into the current 3rd (actually 3.5) edition of D&D.

Having perused the Monster Manual III, I see it has (as the Mezzoloth, a form of yugoloth).

3rd edition, Arcanda. 3rd edition Dungeons & Dragons.

I didn't know a 3rd edition was in release. I know 1st edition, I play 2nd edition, but this 3rd edition...

1st Edition
2nd Edition
3rd edition
Hope that helps some. This third edition is what most of the rest of the D&d boards here at wizards.com are about.
