View source for Metadeus (3.5e Elder Evil)

===== Description =====

Metadeus is difficult to describe, for Metadeus is in truth a hive mind.  All of those physically corrupted by Metadeus are, for all purposes, Metadeus as well and will define themselves as such.  With that said Metadeus does possess hubs of consciousness in two stages, the "queens" of the local hivemind, to which Metadeus can manifest directly through, as well as the actual physical body of Metadeus which lies somewhere lost on the Temporal Plane, deep within its shifting gray sands of time.  Rarely seen, this body is said to be a titanic mechanical structure of black iron, glowing green energy, and impossible geometries.  Seen with anything from 4 to 20 sides, Metadeus is as large as a moon and seemingly artificial.  It is said that within the confines of Metadeus's body lies the answer to all questions, both asked and yet to be asked, as well as the knowledge of the fate of the entire world.  Any who has gone as far to check it though has never returned, slain or driven impossibly mad.  It is uncertain but it is said Metadeus has some vague connection to the metacube artifact in Sigil, whose ever-changing surface mathematically describes the conditions of all creation.
