Ssendam

Ssendam was the slaad lord of insanity, a bizarre being of manifested madness. The most powerful and ancient of their kind, Ssendam pursued their inscrutable agenda through esoteric means.

"A big yellow slaad... my, what won't they think of next!"

- A slaad in-joke based on a vrock's infamous last words.

Description
Ssendam's primary form was that of a huge, golden amoeba, a. gelatinous mass of oozing, glistening chaos with four pseudopods and a brain in place of a nucleus.

Though they had two other forms, Ssendam rarely used them. When near the Spawning Stone in Limbo, they appeared as a large, golden slaad, and sometimes, when on the Material Plane, they took on a humanoid form. Some reports described this form as an unarmored man while others described a gold-skinned, elven, warrior woman.

Personality
Ssendam was an incomprehensible being with a level of intelligence that was difficult to try and quantify. Despite its strange mind, it did have an apparent goal, and that was the furthering of chaos via the spreading of insanity. The crazed, after all, rarely acted orderly, and by introducing insanity into stable communities, such as families, towns, and militaries, they ensured chaos would ensue. Its only end goal was to render every being in the multiverse insane, and it pursued this mission one brain at a time.

Strangely for an extraplanar being, Ssendam shared its true name with all it encountered, though disaster was almost certain to fall upon those who tried to use it. Despite its weird ways, Ssendam could make reasoned decisions and, somehow, be bargained with, though one had to be careful not to be destroyed in the process.

Possessions
When in humanoid form, Ssendam was known to wield a black sword that stunned those it struck.

Realm
Ssendam's domain had been described as a golden castle that rose from the essence of raw chaos.

Ssendam is often found floating in the vicinity of the Spawning Stone that serves as the mating grounds of the slaad race. There, she often takes the form of a golden slaad. Legends suggest that Ssendam serves as the stone's self-appointed guardian, although Ygorl is most often credited with the stone's actual creation.

Activities
Ssendam freely floated in Limbo's roiling chaos consuming anything that came too close. They had never been known to leave the plane, at most manifesting a kind of avatar to interact elsewhere. It was said that they were always contacting mortal minds across the multiverse to drive them mad.

Relationships
Ssendam cared little for the slaadi race, and its involvement with them was limited at best. Visitors were warned to avoid them, as all native inhabitants that knew of them did, lest they be eaten, and any followers they might have had, Ssendam had no apparent concern for.

Ygorl, believed to be the second oldest slaad lord, avoided Ssendam as well, and rather easily at that. Both Ssendam and Ygorl only tolerated the existence of Bazim-Gorag so long as he didn't overtly challenge their "rule" over the slaadi.
