	Obyrith first appeared in 2006's ''Fiendish Codex I'' sourcebook for [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition\|''D&D'' 3.5]], which dealt with the [[Abyss]] and all its horrific denizens. Here they were introduced as one of the three types of demons alongside the [[tanar'ri]] and [[loumara]]. Two types of obyrith were detailed, the [[ekolid]] and [[sibriex]], as well as the obyrith [[Demon Prince]]s [[Dagon]], [[Obox-ob]], [[Pale Night]], and [[Pazuzu]]. Over the next year a few more types of obyrith would be trickled out in supplemental online postings, magazines and ''[[Monster Manual]] V'', while Dagon himself would get a much more posh write-up in ''[[Dragon Magazine\|Dragon]] #349''.

	But it was [[Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition\|4th Edition]] that really shoved obyrith more into the spotlight. Confirming their identity as having come from a universe before the current one, the Obyrith actually won the war of Order versus Chaos! The absolute mad<s>men</s>things! They devoured and twisted reality so badly that their own universe was finally unmade, collapsing into a singularity of pure spite and hatred for existence. But this Shard of Pure Evil™ somehow managed to pierce the veil into [[Greyhawk\|a different universe]] that was just beginning to take form, and inside of it ~~about a dozen~~ Obyrith managed to survive making the leap.

	'''And they were pissed!''' Here they were, just getting done finally destroying existence, and now there's another one being created! Luckily for them, their shard was found by one of the new neutral [[god]]s who was starting to tidy up the chaotic elemental afterbirth, [[Tharizdun]], and they were able to instantly and so thoroughly corrupt him that he created the [[Abyss]] at their behest. Now free to exact their hate on a new universe, they began to battle other primordial entities for control of the newly minted Abyss.		'''And they were pissed!'''

	* '''Draudnu''': Strange round demons with three long spider-like legs at the top of their body. Their body tapers towards the bottom, ending in a red eye surrounded by three wicked clawed arms. They can extend these clawed arms up to 15 feet and use them to immobilize enemies by embedding them in a victim and then breaking them off and growing a new one. A Draudnu's form of madness causes victims to become sickened and believe there is something growing inside them.		* '''Draudnu''': Strange round demons with three long spider-like legs at the top of their body.

	* '''Ekolid''': Vile insectoid horrors, combining all the worst aspects of ants, scorpions, spiders and anything else you wouldn't want to get bitten or stung by. They typically exist in swarms, but on the 663rd layer of the Abyss they construct massive hives as complex as cities. They reproducing by planting their eggs in victims. An Ekolid's form of madness causes you to hallucinate biting insects crawling all over your skin.		* '''Ekolid''': Vile insectoid horrors, combining all the worst aspects of ants, scorpions, spiders and anything else you wouldn't want to get bitten or stung by. They typically exist in swarms, but on the 663rd layer of the Abyss they construct massive hives as complex as cities. They reproducing by planting their eggs in victims. They are very arrogant creatures despite being the weakest known type of Obyrith, and see all other creatures as just incubators for their young. An Ekolid's form of madness causes you to hallucinate biting insects crawling all over your skin.

Their form of madness causes you to suffer amnesia, which gives you several negative levels.
	* '''Sibriex''': These resemble enormous and grotesque floating humanoid heads that are shackled to the ground by hooks and chains. Said to have a knack for flesh-crafting, the creation of the tanar'ri is likely their doing. A Sibriex's form of madness causes you to believe that the sibriex is the most perfect physical form, which makes you less resistant to the sibriex's enchantment abilities and damages your charisma.		* '''Sibriex''': These resemble enormous and grotesque floating humanoid heads that are shackled to the ground by hooks and chains.

			* '''[[Wastrilith]]''' (formerly known as '''Water Fiend''' or '''Water Lord'''): An eel-like aquatic demon. They are not classified as Obyriths because they have evolved over time and lost their Obyrith traits. Their form of madness ability has been replaced with corrupting the water they inhabit.
