Earth Glide. The pyrogodon can burrow through nonmagical, unworked earth and stone. While doing so, the pyrogodon doesn't disturb the material it moves through.

Innate Spellcasting. The pyrogodon's spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 20). The pyrogodon can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:

At will: fireball, hallow, move earth, sending
1/day each: elemental bane, planar binding (7th level)

Magic Resistance. The pyrogodon has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Magic Weapons. The pyrogodon's weapon attacks are magical.

Stone Camouflage. The pyrogodon has advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide in rocky terrain.

ACTIONS

Multiattack. The pyrogodon can use its Teleport. It then makes four attacks: one with its bite, two with its claws, and one with its tail.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 27 (3d12 + 8) piercing damage.

Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 21 (2d12 + 8) slashing damage plus 10 (3d6) fire damage.

Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 44 (8d8 + 8) bludgeoning damage.

Teleport. The pyrogodon magically teleports, along with any equipment it is wearing or carrying, up to 120 feet to an unoccupied space it can see.


Pyrogodons are powerful elementals created by a now long dead demon lord. When that demon lord was destroyed, however, some pyrogodons collected the fragmented essence of abyssal power that remained and imbued it into themselves, transforming into powerful creatures neither truly demon nor elemental. These pyrogodons surround themselves with their lesser kin and demons and lure mortal servants.
A pyrogodon suzerain will lend its aid to emerging demons that crave power. The resources that it lends are a great boon, but when the demon solidifies its power, the pyrogodon claims its end of the bargain: the demon must serve it or be destroyed. In this way, pyrogodons indirectly control a good deal of the Abyss, with the ultimate goal of ruling it all.
When a pyrogodon suzerain is defeated, its body falls to pieces, though its soul reforms on the Elemental Plane of Earth over weeks or months. A slain pyrogodon remembers everything from its past existence and often seeks to slay those that would dare destroy it. A pyrogodon can be destroyed permanently if it is slain while in the area of an antimagic field or otherwise prevented from returning to the Plane of Earth.
