So I've been wanting to do this for a while now. I found this channel which made these short films based off this monster they made up and thought it would be fun to do something with

Just for fun, let's make the creature Uncle Samsonite into a D&D monster

The complete lore of him is on this YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/alphawalrus).

So to start, I have this. Change it if you want

Uncle Samsonite
Size/Type: Large Outsider (Chaotic/Extraplanar/Evil)
Hit Dice: ???
Initiative: +10
Speed: 60ft.
Armor Class: 30
Attack: ???
Full Attack: ???
Special Attacks: ???
Special Qualities: ???
Skills: Perform, Hide, Move Silently, Escape Artist
Environment: A chaotic evil aligned plane
Organization: Solo (1)
Challenge Rating: ???
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Advancement: ???
Level Adjustment: ???

Can you help fill in the gaps and add more?

Looks more like medium to small sized to me.

From looking at the video thumbnails again, I think that you're right about medium size. He is about as tall as both the actors.

So what we have now is

Uncle Samsonite
Size/Type: Medium Outsider (Chaotic/Extraplanar/Evil)
Hit Dice: ???
Initiative: +10
Speed: 60ft.
Armor Class: 30
Attack: ???
Full Attack: ???
Special Attacks: ???
Special Qualities: ???
Skills: Perform, Hide, Move Silently, Escape Artist, Disguise, Intimidation
Environment: A chaotic evil aligned plane
Organization: Solo (1)
Challenge Rating: ???
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Advancement: ???
Level Adjustment: ???

The main problem here is that the attack is still pretty vague. After all, we have never seen him actually fight. He can usually have that effect with his skill synergy with (of all things) perform and intimidate.

He probably uses aura of fear or terrifying aura, maybe something similar.
