SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Instead of proposing a Great Old One, Infernal, Abyssal, or Extraplanar entity; I'll just suggest the Ravener from the Pathfinder Bestiary 2, pages 230 - 231.  CR22 Red Wyrm Ravener, 337 HP.  A Gargantuan Undead Red Dragon, who casts as a 20th Level Sorcerer.  It knows three 9th Level, three 8th Level, three 7th Level, and three 6th Level Spells.  It possesses Spell Like Abilities, as a 27th Level Sorcerer.  Its Breath Weapon does 22d10 Fire Damage, Plus 2 Negative Levels.  It can Melt Stone, and Consume Souls.

Nice.....
I need you to roll a perception check.....

So a super dracolich? 3e D&D is pretty much made of this at the higher end. Or what the dragon god Falzure from the 2nd D&D movie should have been.

30th level Defiler/Psionicist with thousands of years of gathering powerful artifacts and building a near-impregnable city-state to draw on. Has a circle of high level liches and an elite guard to serve him.
He casts a spell and people die from the defiling magic, before even considering what 10th level craziness he's casting.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

That Crab, that goddamned crab.

You may not intend for this to be the party's final battle, but at level 3 it probably will be.

The Snake Creature from Obscene Serpent Religion 2.

It doesn't do a lot of damage.  It does travel back in time the very instant you do damage to it, and fucks with your PC's ancestry.  Twelve possibilities, ranging from "you never existed" to "the snake creature is now your mother."  Having to reroll some or all of your ability scores is likely, having to reroll them all until they're worse than what you started with is a possibility.  Lose all your experience points and your character class?  Can happen.
