Xitannoth is the Poison Colossus of.

Ancient history
Xitannoth was born around 10 thousand years in the past during the Old Age. While his exact birth place is not known, Xitannoth is said to have been born out of a volcanic eruption, taking shape and self-awareness out of the gases expelled by the volcano. At his birth, Xitannoth was said to have clouded the entire world in venomous clouds which briefly engulfed the world in darkness, until those were cleansed away by another entity, supposely.

Since then, Xitannoth has gained control over his powers and now roams across Koldenwelt, visiting civilizations in search for amusement. He has been folkloric names such as "Trickster God" over his actions, where he was said to have tricked kings and generals into being his playthings by tempting them with valuable trasures.

Appearence
Xitannoth appears as an enormous pterosauroid beast with an immense wingspan of 430 feet. His eyes are blood-red and his body is coloured in a mucky-looking purple and black, and is filled with red spots which signify his toxicity. He possesses several series of tubes on his wings which release clouds of smoke as he flies across the skies of Koldenwelt. His head is filled with horns and a large crest which go all the way through his forehead to the nape of his neck. Xitannoth is overall the smallest of the Colossi.

Personality
Xitannoth is described as being a natural trickster with minor sadist traits. He takes pleasure in making mortals his playthings for no specific reason but to laugh at their expense. Xitannoth manipulates mortals by offering large sums of treasures such as gold and then orders them to do things he knows it will harm them in some way. However, Xitannoth's pranks are never "too" heavy. Xitannoth has never been seen causing anything as big as wars on his "toys" and shows an inherited desire to destroy the servants of. While he has no issues with ruining a person's life to have a laugh, he will never ruin the lives of an entire population.

Abilities
Being the Colossus of Poison, Xitannoth has several powers associating with poisoning life. The smoke produced by the tubes on his wings have similar properties to smoke produced by volcanic gases, and as such hold very toxic ashes and other substances. Xitannoth can launch blasts of acid out of his mouth and tubes in the form of huge spheres which can not only burn away enemies, can also blast them across large distances. Due to his size, Xitannoth is also extremely strong and could potentially carry on his talons over a short distance before exhausting. Despite all this, Xitannoth's body is very vulnerable to water, which causes him to "dissolve" in a liquid form. Because of this, Xitannoth tends to stay away from the seas.
