Behaviour

Death Slaad (control gem variant) is cold and inhuman in its goals; it does not think the way mortals think. Its Chaotic Evil alignment shapes how it engages with the world — predictable in tendency, even when unpredictable in detail. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember. Spellcasting expands its repertoire well beyond what its physical stat block alone suggests.

Origin
