Gormeel

❌

Gormeel were slaadi spawned as the antithesis of their brethren, the only sin for slaadi: order. They were often found as allies of the githzerai.

Description
Gormeel slaadi naturally appeared as large, four-legged lizards with gray-green to purple scales. Gormeel walked exclusively on all fours, although the forelegs resembled those of an ape. The head was also lizard-like, and possessed rows of razor-sharp teeth. Additionally, gormeel had crescent-shaped claws on their hands.

Abilities
Gormeel were powerful creatures with several natural abilities. They were capable of flying through innate magic, and possessed both darkvision and a keen sense of smell. Gormeel could also be resistant to any form of elemental energy, but only one at any given moment; they could choose which element and change it at will. Gormeel slaad also healed remarkably fast.

Gormeel could innately cast a variety of spells. At will, they could use detect chaos, detect magic, dispel chaos, protection from chaos, and see invisibility. Thrice each day a gormeel could use confusion, dimension door, and order's wrath, and only once per day freedom of movement, mislead, and word of law. Additionally, all gormeel could naturally change into an alternate shape and remain so indefinitely; this alternate shift was that of a githzerai and they could shift between forms at will.

Gormeel slaad also possessed a breathe weapon, being capable of spewing a cone of raw Limbo-material.

Society
Gormeel were the manifestation of one of the most bizarre aspects of chaos: they were naturally lawful creatures, yet were born of chaos. A strange mutation that sometimes occurred by the Spawning Stone, they were hunted by other types of slaadi. The gormeel, in turn, enjoyed battling their unpredictable kin.

The gormeel were close allies of the githzerai, and acted as mounts for githzerai in the latter's war with the githyanki. Many githzerai communities had a handful of gormeel allies dwelling with them.

Gormeel were creatures of law born from complete chaos, and it showed. While they were normally serious, their chaotic heritage could seep through; some gormeel were known to play the occasional practical joke.
