Now I may not be the best at math, but I'm pretty sure that the way ability bonuses are calculated in D&D would never allow for a constitution of 23 to provide a bonus of +8.

I'm assuming that they meant to put 26 as the constitution score, because they calculated the HP as if it were a +8 bonus, as was the Constitution Saving Throw bonus.

Also, did anyone notice that Graz'zt has a +15 bonus to the "Bluff" skill? Just a few interesting things I found.

My favorite typo in that section isn't in a statblock proper, but under the description for either Demogorgon or Baphomet's insanity (I forget which) it says to roll for madness on the Madness of Juiblex table instead of their own table.

You could tell they hastily shoved the Demon Lord stats together. Especially because Orcus is the most op of all of them by far (Summoning 3 liches as an action via Wand of Orcus)

And demogorgon somehow only getting 2 legendary actions. I know it fits his whole duality/rule of 2 theme, but it makes him much weaker.

Would have been fine if his actions were better, but he is just kinda a push over in general.

I chop it up to them being demon lords. As such, they break any known laws of physics (aka game mechanics).

They're so powerful that they alter the physical world and the meta world.

Good thing we have DMs to keep them in check :smallsmile:
