Malgarius, the Demon Tree, is a demon lord.

Description

Malgarius appears as a massive, green tree many miles high, with enormous, twisted branches swathed in ragged vines.

History

Eons ago, Malgarius was once ruler of its own layer of the Abyss, until its defeat by the demon lord Lazbral'thull, who conquered its realm and imprisoned the Demon Tree's life essence within an artifact called the Seed of Malgarius. For untold millennia, the Demon Tree has slumbered, only recently showing signs of consciousness.

Relationships

Malgarius was defeated by its fellow demon lord, Lazbral'thull.

Realm

Malgarius's original realm is unknown.

Worshipers

While Malgarius's area of concern is evil sylvan creatures, it is unknown if the Demon Tree has retained any followers since its imprisonment.

Artifacts

The only magic item associated with Malgarius is the prison which holds its essence, the Seed of Malgarius. The Seed appears as a silver sphere five to ten feet in diameter, that "burns like a miniature sun."
