Barghests | Pathfinder Lore

Rumoured to be the soul-stealing hounds of Hell itself, barghests are actually servants of Lamashtu, the Mother of Monsters, and their progenitors retain a whole layer of the Abyss to themselves. Yet their origins do indeed reside with Asmodeus, and a complex history has led to much mortal bloodshed in the meantime. Join the Guide from an Escadar tavern to learn precisely how menacing the barghests remain to the Material Plane. __________ Chapters 00:00 - Introduction 01:22 - Description 04:11 - Powers 07:07 - Ecology 10:42 - History 13:52 - Conclusion __________ This media project has utilised a paid version of Sword Coast Soundscapes' 'Quiet Tavern' ambience; check out their phenomenal work here: https://www.youtube.com/@SwordCoastSoundscapes/.
