Chain Devil
- Type: Fiend
- Challenge Rating: 8
- Alignment: Lawful Evil
Chain Devils often serve powerful devils by tormenting captured souls with physical and psychological torture until they reveal their secrets. The Chain Devil is adorned with chains that it can animate alongside other loose chains to inflict physical pain on its victims.
Similar to Oblexes, the Chain Devil can also instill fear in players on a more personal level: through its disturbing gaze, it can cause its victims to see not the devil, but their worst fears before them. That could either be the corpse of a loved one, a disapproving deity, a strict superior, or the Beholder itself at their lowest point in life.
Here too, the possibilities for emotional and psychological horror are vast.
