Stoic and inscrutable, Lom Lobon is an ancient demon infamous for their mastery of magic. Rumoured to be the most learned being in the halls of Pandemonium, they are at times sought out by mortal wizards who offer their souls in exchange for the secrets of the arcane. Lacking the terrible wrath present in most demons, Lom Lobon's single eye instead hides a cold, impartial cruelty.

Useful Info
