OpenForge 2.0 Encounter: Shrine of Lamashtu

myminifactory

I've decided to launch a series of alignment-based shrines, starting with Lamashtu, representing Chaotic Evil. I suspect the evil alignments will have more than one shrine dedicated to them. This first shrine is for Lamashtu, Mother of Monsters. She's a signature villain in Pathfinder's Golarion and makes an excellent choice for any fantasy RPG. Lamashtu is based on an ancient Mesopotamian demon, originally depicted as a female demon, monster, malevolent goddess or demigoddess who terrorized women during childbirth and kidnapped their children while they nursed them. Her crimes also included gnawing on bones and sucking blood. In Pathfinder, Lamashtu has achieved godhood as an archdaemon known as "The Mother of Monsters". She is the mother and patroness of many deformed and malformed creatures that inhabit the world's surface, air, or underground. She and her cult make a formidable nemesis and Big Bad. I've also released a miniature of Lamashtu, which features the same statue used in this encounter. Check out the miniature release for the items remixed to create the Lamashtu miniature.
