The SendingStone review

Marilith is a chaotic evil monster with a high challenge rating of 16 and impressive stats in CHA, CON, DEX and INT. Despite her formidable abilities, she can be countered with poison attacks. Marilith's attacks involve six arms and a magical longsword that can deal a whopping 2d8+10 damage. Additionally, she can cast spells and teleport, making her difficult to escape. This makes Marilith a challenging and exciting monster to face in any D&D campaign.
