I remember this guy. The only time Levistus is let out of his frozen prison is when Asmodeus calls meeting of all Lords. . At the end of epic level campaign of D&D 3.5 we played, my swashbuckler crashed Asmodeus' meeting of all devil lords to challenge Levistus to a duel for title of The Best Fencer of the Planes. After log and epic duel I won and then promptly Asmodeus smoked me xD Which was all accroding to plan of the rest of our team which used this as a distraction to sprang some soul from Asmodeus' lair in Nessus. I posthumously gained the title and party outwited Asmodeus. Good times.

Theory: Levistus was with Asmodeus's wife when Glasya (who was infatuated with Levistus) showed up and in a rage murdered her mother. Then Asmodeus froze Levistus to punish Glasya. She will forever sit in the 6th layer unable to do anything to Levistus in the 5th. So she is tormented by lusting and loathing for Levistus.

Eh, why bother answering the question at all? Some things are best left unanswered. Honestly even the whole "oh man I found someone else in your bed!?" silly sitcom stuff just feels out of place for near-omniscient and timeless entities of supposedly supernatural intelligence. The "Devil forever trapped in ice" - the reference to how Satan is depicted in Cocytus in Dante's Inferno - is super cool. I'm more inclined to say that there might be some truth to the idea of the malicious tryst, but that's an idea vastly simplified by novice wizards. The layers of nuance are more numerous and complex for most mortals to really understand, and even the basic reality is something they vastly misinterpret. It could even be possible that this arrangement is entirely Levistus' plan. There are so many potential ways you could interpret Levistus's prison within the prison that is Baator.

Amazing that Levistus, who was arguably one of the most talented swordsmen in existence, was reduced to a frozen prisoner. Even when Asmodeus decides to briefly release Levistus for the infrequent meetings of the Archervils, Levistus is just a sodden, malnourished mess…his muscles have atrophied, so he can’t even move on his own. The fact that Levistus turned around and became one of the most tactical minds in the Nine Hells is impressive.

What if, plot twist: Levistus was always loyal to Asmodeus, who was also very aware of both Bensozia's treacherous inclinations AND Glasya's rebellious delusions. So to deal with both menaces and give a cool gift to his best bro, Asmodeus devised this plot for Levistus to "Betray" him. The frozen cage? Invincibility for his true body. The temporary loss of his status as lord of Stygia? Just vacation time to chill. The obligation to help anyone escape? Easy soul-buying hotline so he can always have enough souls to pay his quota AND keep some spare. Heck, it's even possible Asmodeus gave Levistus a secret avatar so he could go around to do stuff, albeit strictly anonymous.

Levistus keeps this hidden from asmodeus, he lets em free and he continues to use their services when ever he feels like traveling and pays em handsomely, the drawbacks would be basically a campaign of a escort quest and the party is probably attacked a lot sense the man is strange and well wealthy

Of course I just get my players involved with a demon loyal to Levistus when this video comes out. @MrRhexx knows exactly what I need!

These are my favorite kinds of videos that you do. The ones where you reveal hidden/secret stories about the all powerful characters in dungeons and dragons. I find it fascinating.

I love listening to these when falling asleep. So soothing.

You need to make more videos like this. You are literally leaving money on the table. There are A TON of interesting creatures in DnD and I would love to hear about them all.

Honestly not a big of Levistus because of the whole mother and daughter story thing because it falls into the really tired narrative of villains are just straight up evil and yes I get that they are devils, but DnD goes out it's way to show that Amodeus is an interesting figure because he simply doesn't see himself as the bag guy, he believes what he is doing is right and as such is not a horrible person deep down, it's quite possible he could loved his wife and daughter. But instead of an actual complex narrative with betrayal and hardship, it's just, super smooth devil comes in and chats his wife and daughter so he can bang them betray Amodeus. Because the most complex a female devil is, 'oh she sexy she must do sex'. While at least the narrative of him killing his wife because she refused him shows signs of loyalty and arrogance on Levistus, which only makes more sense, because Yeah Levistus is smooth, but Amodeus is said to be the most charismatic being 'in existence'. And just, I hate how one dimensional that version makes everyone.

Awesome man, Now why haven't I heard of a pirate captain venerating Levistus, not just because he's the ironic god of escapes, but also because of his swordsman ship and general 'rakish audacity'.

Hey Rhexx thank you so much for this video Levistus is my bbeg of my campaign and the video helped me out a ton.

This is perfect because one of my players is a Levistus tiefling and he haaaaaates Levistus! This is going to help with my lore so much thank you!!!

What a coincidence. I rewatched the ten coolest magic items video yesterday.

To think you can overthrow asmodeus then you do it only to find out the guy your all afraid of is just a dang avatar for a ungodly large winged serpent.

So upon pausing and reading very little of the Dark Eight, this definitely seems like something worthy to watch in a future video if you're covering the devils @MrRhexx

Ever since I saw him and his lore in the 3rd edition book a few years back, I knew I had to add him in as a major player in some form for my campaign. Will reference this video as I work towards him in a few years.

My Rime of the Frost Maiden campaign pretty much features him because of a player in my party. I couldn't find shit about him, so thank you for uploading this much needed information!

Fuck yeah, my warlock's daddy gets some love. -Also love how I accidentally stumbled upon "doing it right" (was secretly guided by frost dad for all of his life to enjoy making others eat their words and studying the blade, eventually being chosen as a champion by his secret real dad and working out a deal where he becomes a supernatural contract lawyer to fuck over glasya and incidentally other outsiders)
