FEONOR
Feonor is a willowy, neutral evil a r chmage with milky-
white eyes and a parasol made of bones and human
flesh. Her rivals know her as a powerful necromancer.
They suspect that she fled the Material Plane to escape
some horrible fate, but the truth is she was invited to
Avernus by Mahadi, the rakshasa master of the Wan-
dering Emporium (see page 126). During a visit to
Feonor's world, Mahadi fell head-over-heels in love with
her zombie-like indifference. Not long after arriving in
Avernus, Feonor grew bored of Mahadi's attempts to im-
press her. Without so much as a farewell, she took to the
Avernian wastes on one of the rakshasa's infernal war
machines and never looked back. Years later, Mahacli
still refers to her as "the one the got away."
The scowl on Feonor's face hints at her constant an-
noyance with the multiverse around her. She prefers not
to speak, and when s he does. it's typicaUy only in whis-
pers, her s hort sentences interspersed and punctuated
with frustrated sighs.
GOLDEN DOOMFeonor rides around in a Demon Grinder called Golden
Doom, so named because Mahadi fitted it with gilded
death armor (see page 222). The vehicle is driven by
a ghast, and its other stations are operated by ghouls.
She also commands a force of ten crawling claws. A
pair of Tormentors crewed by mezzoloths provide es-
cort. See appendix B for the vehicles' stat blocks.
PRINCEPS KOVIK
This particularly cruel chain devil commanded the
Nine Hells' 8th Infantry Legion, "Terror Incarnate,"
which was crushed on the banks of the River Styx by
the demon lord Kostchtchie. Blaming its superiors for
the defeat, Princeps Kovik gathered the surviving mem-
bers of its legion and formed the Eighth Remnant, a ma-
rauding gang of devils no longer beholden to the infernal
hierarchy.
The devils that serve under Kovik do so willingly
because the chain devil has earned their trust. Newly
disenfranchised devils regularly flock to Kovik's banner.
The chain devil's emblem is the numeral 8 made out
of iron chain on a crimson field. Kovik aims to gather
enough strength and infernal war machines to do what
no archdevil has been able to do: drive the demons back
to the Abyss for good.
THE EIGHTH REMNANT
The Eighth Remnant chases down any potentiaJ source
of soul coins. Targets who give up their soul coins freely
are allowed to continue on their way without further
harassment, provided there are no demons lurking
among them.
Kovik has a Devil's Ride and travels with two bearded
devils on similar vehicles. The rest of the gang consists
of four barbed devils on a Tormentor and eight bearded
d evils on a Demon Grinder (see appendix B for vehicle
stat blocks). Members of the Eighth Remnant never use
demon ichor in their vehicles.
