Ebirri

Ebirri was a rakshasa vizier of the Sultai in Tarkir's original timeline. It is unknown if he exists in Tarkir's new timeline.
==History==
Ebirri had encountered the Jeskai monk Taigam in Purugir. Interested in what a traitor to the Jeskai could bring to the Sultai, Ebirri bound himself to the monk, teaching him some of the dark magics he knew. In exchange for the privilege of being the knowledgeable Taigam's most humble servant, Ebirri would bring Taigam great fortune and power within the Sultai. Taigam knew he was being deceived in some fashion, but the immediate promise of power won out over his common sense. The pact was made, and in exchange for power, Taigam swore his life in service of the rakshasa.
Taigam rose to the chief advisor of Sidisi, the khan of the Sultai. The brood tyrant sent Taigam to perform her decrees outside of the palace, which was a great honor, as she usually kept those she mistrusted close to her so she could be the one to end their lives. Taigam executed Sidisi's rule throughout Sultai territory, all under the watchful eye of his true master, Ebirri.
When Jeskai assassins attacked Taigam, loudly proclaiming they were doing it on orders of their khan Narset, Ebirri emerged from the shadows. One of the remaining monks threw daggers at Taigam, but the rakshasa growled in their direction and they fell to the ground as though hitting an invisible wall. As the rakshasa willed dark magic, purple mist emanated from his eyes toward one of the monks. Taigam drew a dagger from his ankle and rushed toward the demon, intending to kill him. Although the assassins were there to kill him, Taigam knew the greatest threat to his life had always been the rakshasa.
The remaining monk grabbed Taigam's arm, but the Sultai spun away, tossing his dagger to his other hand and striking at the rakshasa. The dagger stuck in Ebirri's side, interrupting his concentration. Ebirri roared and backhanded both Taigam and the monk who held him. They both slammed into the wall. The rakshasa grabbed the monk and pulled him back, then grabbed his head. Ebirri crushed it, exploding brain and skull all over the cabin. The uninjured monk had recovered, but Ebirri continued his dark spell and choked the life of the monk with his magic.
Taigam finally caught his breath, and the hulking rakshasa picked him up and pulled him close, so the Sultai's face was next to his mouth. He reminded Taigam that he owned him, then dropped him to the ground. There was still a monk alive, but unable to move due to the damage to his leg.
When they inquired of the monk who had sent them, he repeated that it had been Narset. Taigam thought this odd. Ebirri crushed the monk's head, then bid Taigam to take care of Narset, and then returned to the shadows.
