Character from Icewind Dale by R.A. Salvatore / Wizards of the Coast / Black Isle Studios
Archdevil imprisoned in an immense iceberg in Stygia, the fifth layer of the Nine Hells — reaches into Icewind Dale through whispers, granting warlock pacts to the desperate and faithless.
Levistus cannot act directly, so he acts through others — and he is masterful at it. His whispers reach mortals in moments of despair, offering exactly what they need to hear. He is patient across centuries, manipulating pawns in Icewind Dale as part of infernal politics most mortals cannot comprehend. He genuinely finds the cold poetic, seeing himself reflected in Auril's winter. He collects desperate souls the way a miser collects coins, savoring each one.
Visible only as a dark silhouette frozen within a miles-wide block of supernatural ice. In visions, appears as a pale, handsome nobleman with black hair and cold, knowing eyes.
Also known as: Levistus, Lord of Stygia, the Frozen Archdevil
