Cambion. Runs Church of Avernus in Shadowhearth. Always-open black chapel.

Why he's there: Likes Shadowhearth. Everything sinking, everyone desperate. Desperate people are his favorite.

Methods: Grants wishes like a genie who leaves out one detail. Can't afford medicine? Sign, she'll be healthy - takes ability to taste sweet. Black Hand shaking you down? Sign, they'll forget you - takes memory of first kiss. Price always seems small until you miss it.

Use in story: Always has useful information. Always has a price.

Personality: Charming, witty, unhurried, delighted by suffering. Not in a rush - suffering is vintage.
