Omug,
The All-Consuming Fire
CR 19
Where to begin my tale...
When I was in the egg, I somehow came to be in Hell. I do
not know how my master acquired me. It’s not important. I hatched in flames and
my master baptized me in hellfire. I serve as a...messenger of sorts for Our
Dark Lord of Fire who rules in Damnation, whose very name strikes terror in the
hearts of mortals. I keep this terror alive by giving his orders to lesser
servants and eliminating threats and enemies in ways befitting
his...reputation. I see in your eyes that you understand. And now it is you who
will write his message to the world. The message is this: the Dark One is
coming. You will all bow to him in proper fear and deference, or you will burn.
Note
Omug is terrifying. Most frightening is his ability to
appear human. He assumes this form most of the time. I only saw his dragon form
through the aid of powerful divinations. He is a creature of ancient and
terrible power. It is wise to avoid him.

Tactics
Before Combat Omug begins each day by casting mage
armor on himself. Unless surprised, he also casts see invisibility
and shield on himself. All of these are included in his statistics.
During Combat Confident he cannot die, Omug begins
combat with his breath weapon, followed by landing and crushing opponents. He
then uses his abilities as best fits the situation. Once reduced below 250 hit
points, he takes to the air again, executing strafing runs on his opponents
where he alternates between using his breath weapon, and snatching opponents
and dropping them from 250 ft. in the air.
Morale Omug has not been given permission to die, so
he flees if reduced below 100 hit points.
