I’ve liked it ever since I saw that picture of it in the version 3.5 Monster Manual for Dungeons & Dragons. A very cool and comical looking monster in the artwork here. It’s strange that it got retconned from chaotic evil to lawful evil when Planescape was introduced.
For me its the Star Spawn Emessary I mean, look at that thing. But for real the entire Far Realm take on eldritch horror type monsters is just fascinating to me and one of my favorite fantasy types.
That reminds me of the inchoate flesh from Darkest Dungeon
Yep def the same eldritch horror inspiration
