These lairs are distributed as follows: | ||
* {{ | * {{f|Girsh Agolgot}}'s cradle is beneath {{f|Golgotha}}, somewhere between strata 30 and 35. It can be reached by following the pits starting in [[Golgotha#The Cloaca|The Cloaca]]. | ||

* The chuppah of {{ | * The chuppah of {{f|Girsh Qas}} and {{f|Girsh Qon}} is located near the surface, in a random zone of the {{f|Moon Stair}}. | ||
* {{ | * {{f|Girsh Rermadon}}'s cradle is located near the surface in a random zone of the {{favilink|Palladium Reef}}. | ||
* {{ | * {{f|Girsh Shug'ruith the Burrower}}'s cradle can be located in any zone of the map that does not already include a static encounter. To find Shug'ruith's cradle, the player must first find "the mouth of Shug'ruith" on the surface. They must then descend and follow {{f|Layer of resin extruded by Shug'ruith|plural}} to Shug'ruith's cradle. | ||
Of these lairs, the chuppah of Qas and Qon and the cradle of Shug'ruith are the most difficult to find; the player is unlikely to encounter them by traversing the overworld or by exploring random zones. The easiest way to discover the location of these lairs is to trade secrets with legendary [[Gyre wights]]. Factions that trade Moon Stair secrets, such as [[Chavvah]], can also be helpful in finding the chuppah of Qas and Qon. Alternatively, one can pick up the [[Trash Divining]] skill and hope to reveal the location of these lairs. | Of these lairs, the chuppah of Qas and Qon and the cradle of Shug'ruith are the most difficult to find; the player is unlikely to encounter them by traversing the overworld or by exploring random zones.

All six Nephilim are difficult opponents, serving as a sort of "super boss" for Caves of Qud. By default, each one has 4000 health, 38 in each stat, and 60 of each resistance. | |||
Each one also possesses {{f|Irisdual Beam}} - a deadly, three-directional laser attack, which becomes six-directional once they drop below 50% health. Before firing, the beams are marked with a red highlight, similar to the [[Decarbonizer]]'s attack, and will fire on the Nephilim's next turn. The beams deal multiple hits of extreme damage to everything in their paths, and should be avoided at all costs. This attack cannot be interrupted by any means other than killing the Nephilim - stunning, freezing, knocking them prone, sleep, and all other effects will not interrupt the attack. | |||
Finally, each Nephilim will have a bonus effect based on their story-based traits: (TO COME) | |||
