Golothomas Species in Pondera | World Anvil

Golothomas

“Its ravenous hunger is not blunted by the lack of a mouth, and this fact makes the spectacle of a golothoma feeding frenzy all the more horrific.”-From the Demonomicon of Iggwilv

Basic Information

Anatomy

A golothoma has a vaguely serpentine body, although its flanks bulge in odd places and horns protrude from random locations along its knotted length. Its tail rises up into the air like a scorpion’s, and even without a stinger it drips with black, steaming acid. The creature’s face is little more than a single yellow snake’s eye. Arrayed around this eye in a radial pattern are its five insectoid arms, each with three joints and covered with horns and ridges. Each arm ends in a nest of talons and claws. The creature’s shadow is misshapen and doesn’t match its body.

Ecology and Habitats

As a demon, Golothomas are found, and only live in the The Abyssal Realms usually found in the deeper lairs of the demonic hordes.

Dietary Needs and Habits

As normal for demons, Demons do not need to eat, however, they can consume endless amounts of food if they desire, and particularly enjoy eating sacrifices.

Additional Information

Geographic Origin and Distribution

In the The Abyssal Realms the Golthomas are usually found on the 177th layer.

Average Intelligence

Golthomas are not particularly intelligent creatures. They know when to fight, when to run, and a little smattering of words in Abyssal.

Although golothomas understand a few words in Abyssal, they are only barely intelligent enough to belch them out in a mockery of conversation. They are hardly more than horrific predators driven only by a ceaseless hunger to feed, not from any biological requirement but from a deeper need simply to consume the bodies of other creatures.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Golothoma have the capabilities to see normally, but also has the magical ability to see through any illusion, on how things truely are and not how they appear to be.
