Demon Queen Of Fungi Zuggtmoy (a.k.a. Lady Of Rot And Decay)
The Demon Queen of Fungi, Lady of Rot and Decay, Zuggtmoy is an alien creature whose only desire is to infect the living with spores, transforming them into her mindless servants and, eventually, into decomposing hosts for the mushrooms, moulds, and other fungi that she spawns.
Utterly inhuman, Zuggtmoy can mould her fungoid form into an approximation of a humanoid shape, including the skeletal-thin figure depicted in grimoires and ancient art, draped and veiled in mycelium and lichen. Indeed, much of her appearance and manner, and that of her servants’, is a soulless mockery of mortal life and its many facets. (https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/zuggtmoy)
With a vested interest in the Prime Material Plane, Zuggtmoy often finds herself in conflict with other demon lords. (https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Zuggtmoy)
Lolth, who she competes with for control of the Underdark. A more immediate rivalry, and one which has existed far longer than any other, would be Zuggtmoy's infamous war with Juiblex, with whom she shares her realm unwillingly. Zuggtmoy was an ally of Iggwilv.

History
Juiblex's most immediate and obvious opposition was Zuggtmoy, although even then, they both acted more as mutual nuisances to each other. Though Zuggtmoy often spat vile insults and foul curses at the Faceless Lady, she was either unaware of her remarks or too indifferent to respond, knowing that she and everyone else would eventually be under her control. She didn't exactly protest her presence either, since Zuggtmoy's rule over Shekdalah's surface hid her own kingdom and created an extra obstacle for anyone who might care to claim it, protecting it from other demon lords. Zuggtmoy herself could barely be bothered to try and deal with the tenacious demon lady, either fearing her or being too apathetic to her presence to resolve the issue. Nonetheless, both actively hated each other, the Faceless Lady being known to take an active role in sabotaging her plans at times and the Queen of Fungi sometimes concocting plots to permanently destroy her.
