Editing Elder Evils (section)

=5th Edition=
Zargon the Returner was listed as a possible patron for great old one warlocks in the Players Handbook.  Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes describes the Elder Evils as the source of monsters known as [[Star Spawn]] and it includes the list of Elder Evils copied below, which includes the elder evils from Powers and Pantheons and Lords of Madness, a few from the Elder Evils book, and some new ones, mainly [[Archomental|Primordials]] and some obscure evil gods from [[Forgotten Realms]].  Unfortunately it does not give any significant description of them beyond just listing their names so readers will have no idea what they are unless they search through previous editions to find them.

* [[Dendar]], the Night Serpent

* [[The Queen of Chaos]]
* [[Father Llymic]], the Alien Thought Given Flesh

A few of the [[Star Spawn]] Elder Evils from fourth edition are also mentioned in Volo's Guide to Monsters as beings that [[Neogi]] [[Warlock]]s make contracts with.  Strangely, a few of them also appeared as [[Vestige]]s in the [[Curse of Strahd]]'s Amber Temple, though how they died and became vestiges is unexplained (then again, pulling of a Schrodinger's Cat is an Elder Evils thing to do).
