Iggwilv
Infamous demonologist and author of the seminal work that bears her name, the Witch Queen Iggwilv remains an enduring and powerful force in the world and in the planes beyond. Her goal is nothing less than domination of the entire Abyss, and she knows more of that plane's secrets than any other being, living or otherwise. The adopted daughter of the witch Jezababa, Iggwilv was apprenticed to the eccentric archmage Zagig Yragerne, who made his fortune as a member of the legendary adventuring group the Company of Seven.
After absconding with her mentor's greatest secrets, Iggwilv used that knowledge to imprison the Dark Prince Graz'zt. With Graz'zt as her consort, Iggwilv came to rule as the Witch Queen of the distant nation of Perrenland. It was there that she penned the first entries of the infamous Demonomicon. When Graz'zt escaped her, Iggwilv was eventually imprisoned in his abyssal palace in Zelatar. Upon escaping, the fallen Witch Queen attempted to lead an anny of fiends into the world but was again defeated. Iggwilv then retreated for a time into a hidden lair in the Abyss, where her aid was instrumental in the overthrow of the demon lord Demogorgon. Though the Prince of Demons has since returned to power, Iggwilv still possesses a shard of his demonic essence. Iggwilv is said to have two forms-one, an old crone; the other, a beautiful human female with flowing back hair and alabaster skin.
