Screaming Maiden is one of the chaotic evil sentient weapons that emerged from the demon-built fortress Devdine. When Demogorgon's forces were driven out of the Tribe Steppes, Demon Purr, along with a few other sentient items, was left behind. The intention was that even though the demons had departed, these sentient weapons would remain and serve as vessels of Abyssal intrigue.
Screaming Maiden possesses the sentience of a succubus who served under Demogorgon during the Demon Spawn War. This succubus was known for her short temper, often running around shrieking at others over the slightest provocation. She was considered a flaw in the selection process, as succubi are meant to manipulate through subtlety rather than drawing excessive attention. Demogorgon tolerated her for a time, but eventually that patience wore thin. Upon her disposal, her psyche was captured and later transferred into a mace. When not in combat, the mace head takes on the visage of a comely female. However, in the midst of battle, the mace head contorts into that of a female demon with her mouth agape. Within this open maw are four long metal spurs which can deliver any poison with which the wielder has coated them.
Screamin Maiden is a +4 vile mace.
