===[[Baernaloths]]===
Unverified ancient texts claim that baernaloths were the first [[Fiend|fiends]], and the origin of the other fiends. It's said that every individual powerful being in the Lower planes has a baernaloth hand in their origin, including the [[Obyrith]], who are said to have been lured to this multiverse in the first place by the Baernaloth. Those versions which TSR/WotC have published so far have sucked the papery scrotum of Hades himself. Homebrew versions exist online, though, worthy of these most primordial of fiends. 

Notable because as the eldest evils native to the Great Wheel (save perhaps the [[Aboleth]]), they acquire various abilities from various sources over the eons in addition to the ones they already have just from being a baernaloth, and each one has a different set. Some of the more notable ones from the list include one where whatever being that kills them is transformed body and mind over time into the baernaloth they killed, one where they can summon ''any'' other individual fiend in all the lower planes, including a Demon Prince or Archdevil, one where they can spend a week meditating to grant themselves one unique ability, quality, attack, etc. from any other breed of fiend, and the ability to Dominate all evil creatures below CR 12 within 300ft of itself.

Also notable for spending their time doing nothing but tormenting other beings, and they don't even seem to take any joy in it. Oh they don't ''regret'' their actions in the slightest, it's just that in their minds, they exist to torment, and all other beings exist to be tormented.
