Ⅰ

Zipacna, the Mountain Below, is considered to be probably the laziest, yet most violent, of the sahkil tormentors. No one in his service escapes his violence as all are expected to make his life easy and indulge his every vice and whim.

Home

Like the rest of the sahkil tormentors, Zipacna makes his home in Xibalba, the Land of Dread on the Ethereal Plane.

Appearance

Zipacna resembles a very large caiman, being one of the biggest of the sahkil tormentors. His gait is ungainly and his hands are strangely human for a reptilian creature. Further variance from an average crocodilian are his four eyes.
