The Laughing Hand

 is one of the chosen of The Crawling King. As an NPC, is played by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance
Wearing a deep brown, oily, black-stained hood and cloak, the Laughing Hand stands a full ten feet in height. His cloak hides much of his torso, dangling just past the forearms. Beneath the hood is a sagging open jaw, sharp broken teeth, and pale dirty skin weirdly twisted to look like some sort of horrifying mockery of a human face. He wears red stained leather across the body and legs, and heavy boots. His right hand is missing below the forearm, and where the hand would be is a long double-sided blade affixed and built into his arm.

The Laughing Hand is mentioned in this episode when his name is mentioned by the head of the Aasimar when Caduceus interrogates it.

He is freed from his sarcophagus by Obann and then attacks the Mighty Nein. Once they kill Obann, the party manage to pull back from the chamber and trap The Laughing Hand inside, but they don't know how long the stone doors will hold him.
