The Six Armed Master of War is a powerful and exotic creature typically associated with the marilith demon in Dungeons & Dragons, particularly in the Forgotten Realms and other settings featuring demons from the Abyss. A marilith is a formidable demon that possesses the upper body of a beautiful but deadly woman and the lower body of a massive serpent. Its most distinctive feature is its six muscular arms, each capable of wielding a weapon with great proficiency. The title "Master of War" is an epithet earned by mariliths who have honed their martial prowess to an extraordinary degree, often commanding legions of demonic forces in the Blood War or acting as elite generals in demonic hierarchies.

In D&D lore, mariliths embody the chaotic and evil aspects of war. They are not just brutes but are highly intelligent and tactical combatants. The Six Armed Master of War is a title that implies more than raw strength; it conveys mastery over battlefield control, weapon tactics, and infernal strategy. Such a creature can parry and attack with unnatural coordination, exploiting every weakness in an opponent’s guard while maintaining awareness of multiple fronts at once. In mechanical terms, especially in editions like 3.5e and 5e, mariliths can make numerous attacks in a single round, often with magical or poisoned weapons, and have access to teleportation, summoning, and other demonic abilities that make them near-impossible to pin down or outmaneuver.

As generals of the Abyss, Six Armed Masters of War are often found in command of large infernal armies or as champions in major demonic conflicts. Some serve demon lords like Demogorgon or Graz'zt, while others rule small territories within the Abyss independently. Their martial discipline is paradoxically at odds with the chaotic nature of their kind, making them both feared and respected.
