Qlippoth lords are particularly powerful and unique qlippoth that wield approximately the same power as nascent demon lords. Maybe in the very depths of the Outer Rifts, lie qlippoth that even match the power of demigods.12 Furthermore, some scholars debate whether Rovagug is actually the most powerful qlippoth in existence.3

Transformation to demon lords

After demons took control of the Outer Rifts, a few powerful qlippoth lords became jealous of the power of demons and demon lords and sought to also transform themselves. By fusing mortal souls to their antediluvian bodies, they became demon lords with the power of demigods. Many continue to exist and are generally the least anthropomorphic of their brethren, including Cyth-V'sug, Dagon, Jubilex, Mazmezz, Yhidothrus, and Zevgavizeb.26
