Talraxas is famed in the Infernal Courts, as an unforgiving, manipulative, and absolutely devious banker. He holds amazing levels of power, pulls strings on planes that sages have never heard of, and does so all behind the comfortable veneer of respectability.
Talraxas is an Altroloth, a neutral evil unique type of Daemon, who bargains for power. He has been exceptionally successful over aeons of time, and has emerged as a powerbroker to whom any other pales in comparison. Talraxas' limbs are crooked, his face is inscrutable and many-eyed, and he moves about upon a floating disc of Demonic origin. He seeks power in all things, Statistics: Talraxas possesses 28 Hit Dice, with enormous sorcerous power to match. Over incredible spans of time, he has unlocked the secrets of epic spellcasting, and his powers are vast enough that many of the evil gods owe him favours, and perhaps a few of the good-aligned deities to boot. It is whispered in only the most blasphemous of philosophical circles that Pelor himself is compromised somehow by something that Talraxas holds over his head, a vile shadow cast on the Sun itself... How you can use Talraxas in your game: - Talraxas is present at many of the Infernal Courts, often several at a time. He attends on many of the Ten Thousand Kings of Hell, bartering to trade powers and even covenants between them. He can be glimpsed at them if your Player Characters ever attend those courts, though he will rarely participate where outsiders are present. - Talraxas may sponsor a Warlock from time to time himself. His servants bear a small extra joint in each of their arms, making them look crooked and hunched. They have supernatural powers of persuasion and dealbroking. - PCs may get caught up in some sort of grand scheme which Talraxas is behind. It may not make sense to mortal minds, and may even harm his relationship with his seeming allies, but everything he does is always done to further his eventual goals.
