The Dark Prince of Pleasure
A Chthon Prince of pleasure, decadence, and unlimited self-indulgence. Known as a beautiful but malicious being
“I live for the moment when I can turn something pure into something perverse.”
-Graz'zt
Graz'zt is the Chthon prince of pleasure, decadence, and unlimited self-indulgence, as well as the patron of corrupt authorities and tyrants who would rule by force. His domain lies within Gehenna, known as Azzagrat or the Triple Realm. The appearance of the The Dark Prince belies the true depths of his wickedness, his existence a warning that not all that was beautiful is also good. All things are but playthings in the eyes of the Prince of Pleasure, he simply hasn't claimed them yet.
