Misupheles

Misu's Token Art

Misupheles "Misu" is was one of the main player characters within the Out of the Abyss campaign after Pyrite Cragmaw died.

## Description

Misupheles "Misu" has thick horns bursting from her forehead and curling around the sides of her head. Behind those horns, a raven-black shock of hair.  Pointed, elven ears act as the resting place for her full-moon spectacles.

Wearing a mix of a duster coat and scale mail, Misu tries to appear ready for any combat or climate.

Misu's face rests usually on "exuberant" or "confused and concerned" as she has found herself surrounded by small, insanely powerful goblin children while the material plane around her collapses under the weight the Abyss's madness.

## Background

Fior-Ghlan the Pure was offered a deal his heart just couldn't refuse.  The Erinyes Tilphousia was surprised to receive two souls that day.  One of her pact quarry & one of a soon-to-be daughter.

Taking a break from Hell must not have been easy for her, but such a weak child might not be born in such a place. So, she tended to the young Misu's needs as best she could within the Material Plane… for a little while.  Fior-Ghlan's soul was certainly an excellent deal and had earned Tilphousia this well-deserved break, but there ain't no rest for the wicked.

After learning to walk and listen, Misupheles was raised in the proper behavior of a Mephistopheles devil.  The education, the research, the ability to be out of sight & mind at the slightest hint of annoyance, & of course the Devil's Code.

The mechanism of the worlds have rules, systems, and broken pieces that all guide the hands of the universe.  Beyond Arcane, Divine, Demonic, Infernal or whatnot, there are machines and machinations that underlie them all.  Mephistopheles certainly knows this.  Thus, it was the duty and honor of Misu to examine the laws of the world closely as well.  While models of the world through gears and tinkered tools leaves some of the kinder, softer, more natural sides of the universe out, it is where Misu's mind shines.

This was the childhood and early adulthood of a Devil's child.  However, with Tilphousia's time in the Material Plane up and her duties calling her back to the Nine Hells, Misu's mother left her daughter & Fior-Ghlan the Pure to tend to their lives.  It did not take long for Misu's father to follow her down.

Left to her own devices, Misu tended to her research and found time, whenever possible, to reach out to her mom and be of assistance.  This led Misu into the Harpers. Amongst them, she began to codify her own understanding of the world and the rules that might govern her life. The Harper's believed…

1. One can never have too much information.

2. Too much power leads to corruption.

3. No one should be powerless.

Misu bought the first and third, for the most part. For consensus between a Devil-bonded Tiefling and a group dedicated to equality and fairness, an ethical agreement on two out of three foundational beliefs is not bad.

Nevertheless, power grows and can certainly corrupt.  A few years into the gig, Misu was almost caught attempting to reach out to her mother and send some valuable information down to Hell.  In the heat of the coming days, Misu used what influence and wit she had available to frame her actions on another member of the Harpers she had been working with for some time.

While she has learned her lesson about keeping her dangerous secrets more well-hidden, she has not looked back upon her actions against her comrade in regret. New rules must be followed and lived by, if one is to thrive as a spy amongst heroes.

1. One can never have too much information.

2. Corruption can be thwarted by rigorous principles, some may just not like those principles.

3. Some need to be temporarily powerless so that the world can have its fair share of power later.

For consensus between a Devil-bonded Tiefling and a group dedicated to equality and fairness, an ethical agreement on one out of three foundational beliefs is not bad…
