Shami-Amourae debuted in Dungeon #5 in the adventure "The Stolen Power" where she had the power of a demigoddess.[1]
She was mentioned again years later in Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss, where it was revealed that she was imprisoned in the Wells of Darkness as a result of her war with Malcanthet.[2] Shami-Amourae's statistics were considerably powered down for her third edition debut in Dungeon #148, in the adventure "The Wells of Darkness.".
