Fraz-Urb'luu

Deceptive Fraz-Urb’luu is the patron demon lord of illusionists and tricksters, a wrathful prince who only recently escaped imprisonment on the Material Plane.

In ancient Narfell
In -181 DR the ruler of Narfell, Ilithkar, was overthrown by his cousin Rheligaun "the Horned," a half-fiendish son of Fraz-Urb'luu.

In the modern era
Since his recent escape, Fraz-Urb’luu has spent the past 25 years rebuilding his Abyssal realm of Hollow’s Heart and searching for his staff, a potent artifact that was stolen at the time of his imprisonment. Fueling these goals is rage—rage focused primarily on all of humanity. Fraz-Urb’luu hopes that when he has fully re-established his power over Hollow’s Heart and has reclaimed his staff, he’ll be able to bring this rage to bear on his enemies.

Fraz-Urb’luu counts no other demon lord as an ally, because his ability to deceive them and trick them makes him a particularly hated demon lord. Rumors hold that this hatred might have encouraged some of the other demon princes to aid in Fraz-Urb’luu’s imprisonment. For now, his enemies keep a watchful eye on Hollow’s Heart but dare not move against him. He might be alone, but Fraz-Urb’luu remains one of the more powerful of the Abyssal lords nevertheless.

Minions
Fraz-Urb’luu prefers minions that play to his strengths of deception, seduction, and treachery. succubi are one of his favorite tools, as are the sinister lilitu. He also commands a large number of chaotic evil rakshasas known as the Hollow Rajahs.

Cult of Fraz-Urb'luu
Fraz-Urb’luu’s cults are known as the Cults of Deception. A typical cult consists of a dozen of so members, most of which have at least a few levels of cleric. Posing as benign sects of obscure deities, these cultists seduce and trick people into joining their ranks and offering their unknown worship to Fraz-Urb’luu. These poor folk are doomed the moment they join a cult, for eventually they are sacrificed or goaded into sacrificing themselves. These poor deluded souls inevitably find themselves the eternal prisoners of Fraz-Urb’luu in his mighty city of Zoragmelok on Hollow’s Heart.

Clerics of Fraz-Urb’luu have access to the domains of Chaos, Demonic, Evil, and Trickery. His symbol is his staff—a jeweled scepter of adamantine cast at the end to resemble five bestial arms that splay outward to grip a horned and fanged humanoid skull.
