The Serpent of Hell is a unique demonic dragon which can be found guarding one of the four branches of Hell. Its attributes and breath attacks vary based on where you encounter it.

History

In 0.16 the Serpent of Hell will receive a considerable buff, gaining two extra heads each capable of breathing/attacking individually.

In ancient versions of Crawl, the Serpent of Hell did not appear as a unique monster, but rather as a generic one that could be found in considerable numbers guarding the lowest level of Gehenna. While they may have had fewer HP, the fact they could appear in considerable numbers made them more dangerous than the single monster ever is: facing multiple 20-HD hellfire-casting dragons at a time was often a quick death.
