Titivilus , the Ambassador of Hell

The official Ambassador of Hell to the Kirinal Concordance Zone is the archdevil known as Titivilus. He came at the invitation of the High Table several decades ago and has become a mainstay at diplomatic banquest and high society events. He can be seen in the other Embassy Cities around the Pit engaging in negotiations and diplomacy.

He's a strong advocate aganist bigotry and promotes the interests of his tiefling relatives. The Embassy of Hell is always one of the biggest donors annually to Sgt. Sunder's BBQ-Palooza.

Kirinalos see him as an eccentric visitor that you have to be careful around. He does everything completely legally, but he still wants to own your Mortal Soul! Savvy Kirinalos know better than to bargain away their entire soul, they just sell pieces of it that will eventually grow back or get replaced.

Master of Manipulation

Titivilus is not an imposing figure like the pit fiend General, the Baron Aginnad. He appears as a medium sized red-skinned humanoid who looks just a little more devilish than your average tiefling. Despite his outer appearance, the Ambassador is a powerful archdevil who earned his position through his mastery of charm, persuasion, and maunipulation.

He secured his position as an adviser to Asmodeus with his uncanny ability to say the right words at the right time, swaying opinions and bending those around him to his will. A shrewd politician, he navigated the treacherous politics of Hell, leaving his rivals bewildered while cementing the loyalty of his allies.

Signing the Hell Week Accords

Since his arrival, Titivilus has lobbied for the passage of the Hell Week Accords. He has argured that the peril of Shatter could be almost totally assuaged by allowing Hell to Manifest in the Kirinal Pit for an entire week once a year. He guaranteed that the Infernal Forces of Hell would be well behaved and stay within the confines of the Pit Wall except for "tourist excursions" for the most well behaved of the Baatezu.

He was actually surprised a few years ago when the Hell Week Timeshare Contract was actually signed into law. He had been facing opposition on it so hard, but was overjoyed and a little sad that his work in the Zone was complete.

The Infernal Forces Escape

Much to the Ambassador's horror, the Infernal Forces that manifested in the army belonged to the Infernal Triumverate. They delcared that they were not party to the elaborate contract that the Ambassador had spent decades putting together. The three armies were pledged to three dark gods and sought to complete the Ritual of Lunar Apotheosis for their masters. The three armies escaped the Kirinal Pit when the Teleport Sinks preventing unauthorized teleportation mysteriously failed. They now gather strength in non-Concordant lands and plot to return to the Zone and possibly take it over.

As the Ambassador of Hell, Titivilus was left embarrassed and in breach of many of his contracts. He faces the unenviable task of managing the repercussions and mitigating any potential threats that his so-called "allies" may pose. He is figuring out how to navigate the crisis while ensuring that Hell's interests remain intact while balancing delicate relations with the Zone.

Soul Reasons to Keep His Job

Recognizing the tenuousness of his position after such a public failure, Titivilus has increased his efforts to collect mortal souls. Even though the people of the Zone are cautious, he has been increasing the numbers of soul fractions that he has been collecting. His continued presence in the Zone as Ambassador accurately reflects the success of his efforts.

He has also been bolstering his efforts and cementing his position by making side deals and strategic alliances. He has begun recruiting adventurers to help him with challenges arising from the escaped infernal armies. He offers generous rewards and Molndalian citizenship to those willing to assist him. He has identified Aiden, T-R01D The Death-Bound Revenant, Lanzo "Lance Uppercut" von Razak, and Atticus Ashbury-Smythe as potential power players who could align with him.
