Yamasoth is a nascent demon lord, maybe the only qlippoth currently at that rank in the Abyssal hierarchy.[1]

Contents

Background

Yamasoth is possibly the original qlippoth that was experimented upon leading to the genesis of demonkind; his vile experimentation on victim creatures is used as evidence of this.[1]

Yamasoth's unholy symbol is a jagged circle containing three eyes and six spiralling arms radiating out from its edge.[2]

Home

Yamasoth rules over the Kingdom of New Flesh, a large part of the Abyssal realm of Sekatar-Seraktis. Thirteen other powerful demons war over the control of this realm but seem to leave Yamasoth to his experiments. The results of these experiments inhabit his kingdom.

Appearance

More evidence of a qlippoth nature is in Yamasoth's bizarre appearance: a basis of an octopus or large squid is perverted by extra tentacles and eyes. A large mouth contains an extra eye in the throat, which only opens in combat to release a gaze attack turning victims wild and monstrous. A common factor in his physical make up is the ability to cause pain: teeth, stinging tongues, and the termination of every tentacle with each one boasting a different way of inflicting pain.[2]

On Golarion

Once Yamasoth inhabited the realm of Gongorina in the deepest parts of Sekamina in the Darklands, directly below the Varisian Gulf. This was his laboratory on Golarion used to experiment on troglodytes from Kuvhoshik, driders from Umberweb and other creatures from the surface of Golarion itself. From Gongorina, Yamasoth had tunnels that ran to the Thassilonian city of Xin-Bakrakhan at Hollow Mountain and to Sekatar-Seraktis. This latter tunnel still exists though Yamasoth no longer travels to Gongorina.[3]

Relationships

Runelord of Wrath, Alaznist was allied to Yamasoth when the demon lord lived in Gongorina.[4]
