Lupercio is a demon lord, known as the Baron of Sloth.

Description

Lupercio is ebon-colored, indistinct in form. Because he projects darkness around him for ten miles, it is impossible to distinguish the darkness of his body from its surroundings. That is, except for three signs: his smiling maw, his basso tittering laugh, and his incredible strength. Shadow fiends swarm about, feeding on the shadows surounding him. Lupercio vacillates between periods of utter indolence and periods of manic activity in which he speeds through tasks with blinding precision.

Relationships

Lupercio is the son of Pale Night and an unknown father, making him the brother or half-brother of Graz'zt, Rhyxali, Zivorgian, and Vucarik.

Realm

Lupercio's home layer, the Slugbed, is a foggy domain containing shallow seas, forests, and subterranean vaults. All of it teams with fiendish gastropods. High overhead, above the concealing fog, are majestic castles filled with angelic beings that some believe are attempting to convert Slugbed into a realm of good. Lupercio doesn't care.

Lupercio has small lairs on other layers ranging from cramped hovels, to graceful castles, to dung-filled riverbeds.

Worshipers

Lupercio's lengthy periods of inactivity prevent him from gaining a following.
