I like the Khargal.
I'm not sure about the piece from Babette - it looks more like some sort of para-elemental than a celestial...?
As for the Multifarious... great, except for the elf-ears, the fangs, and the lack of a villainous moustache. He needs something to twirl, like Dick Dastardly. Or the Peculiar Purple Pieman from Porcupine Peak. Or Dishonest John.
I'm hoping Allen doesn't mind - but they're tiny tweaks to make it fit the character...

I'll take #25.
#25 - Trophy Display Area
The door behind you shuts off the charnel-house reek of the storage area, and you see a 10' wide passageway ahead. The lighting here is dim, mostly emanating from glass cases mounted on the left and right walls. Mounted in these cases are grisly heads of differing races, backlit with a dim sickly-yellow light. There are small green glowing areas on the glass below each head, and you get a distinct feeling of unease as you enter this room. The corridor ends at a pair of solid double-doors.
This is a trophy area for the game room. All the 'losers' and a few of the winners of the games are displayed here. The area is under a low-grade fear effect (DC10) and is also unhallowed. Each one of the heads will open it's eyes (Animate Dead) and begin to shriek it's death-story (Magic Mouth - in the abyssal tongue) at the top of it's (non-existant) lungs. (The stories are left as an exercise for the student DM if anyone in the party speaks infernal - picture a football match meets basketball, meets rugby... but with weapons.) Each time a head begins it's story, the Fear DC in the room will rise by 5 points as people start to get freaked out. (The fear accumulates, for each head speaking at once.) Each head will speak for 10 rounds (1 minute) before closing it's eyes and falling silent.
If any of the glass is broken or the cases are opened (DC15 lock -easy), a magical silent alarm goes off. It summons the caretaker (and three-time game champion), Kreepo the Kobold. Kreepo will arrive 5 rounds after glass breaks.
Kreepo, Kobold(Reptilian), Ftr4/Rog8
CR 12; Small Humanoid; 5'/5'; - AL NE - HD 8d6+4d10+12; hp 84;
Init +6; Spd 60 ft/x4; - AC 25;
Attacks: Atk +20/+15 One-handed (1d4+4 + 1d6 cold,15-20/x2, Frost Rapier +2), +19/+14 One-handed (1d3+2/19-20/x2, Hand Crossbow +1);
Saving Throws: Fort +7, Ref +13, Will +1;
Str 10(+0), Dex 22(+6), Con 12(+1), Int 12(+1), Wis 7(-2), Cha 6(-2);
Skills: Balance +16, Climb +8, Hide +28 (+10 from armor), Jump +29, Listen +3, Move Silently +12, Open Lock +8, Search +11, Sleight of Hand +9, Spot +3, Swim +2, Tumble +25, Use Magic Device +1.
Feats: Acrobatic, Dodge, Mobility, Spring Attack, Improved Critical(Rapier), Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus(Rapier), Weapon Specialization(Rapier)
Items: Amulet of Natural Armor +2, Gloves of Dexterity +2, Wand of Shadow (13 charges), Leather Armor +3 of Shadow, Boots of Striding and Springing
Kreepo will arrive and use his wand of Shadow (Fills 20' area with dark shadows - like darkness, except Darkvision may be used) and uses his Spring Attack coupled with enhanced speed of his boots to do Spring Attacks on the party. He will attempt to do as much damage as possible, and if losing, will retreat into area #26 to drink his potions and hide, waiting for the PC's to enter so he can sneak attack again.

I got an idea for Rm 12 and 15.
I just need to write them up and Post them, should have it done by tomorrow at the latest. Basically as a preview I am playing off other contributors ideas a little. RM 15 will be Vlask's current lover a 1/2 fiendish Greenhag Cleric and Rm 12 will be the Game/Lounge for Khargal's war band. Just mostly description.

Preliminary text.
ROOM 15
Locked iron door:2 in thick; Hardness 10; hp 60; Break (DC 28); Open Lock (DC 28).
Bruntel’s Quarters
This room is decorated in garish colors and shiny embroidered tapestries. I room decorated in
such a manner that it is physically disorientating in its conflicting styles. A large bed like
structure is in the far northern corner. It seems a cross between a nest and a once finely made
bedframe, now all that remains is a general outlined square. It is piled high with gaudy silks and
discolored furs. Several chest sit against the walls, some opened but most barely shut bulging
with more cloth. A table nearly 8 feet in length sits midway along the southern wall. Resting on
it are piles of parchment and well worn books haphazardly arranged. The room is lit but a large
candelabra suspended from the ceiling. Also in the nearest northern corner is a set of chains
hanging from the wall at shoulder height.
Often found lounging around Bruntel awaits her companion Vlask. Though they have been
lovers for only a short while Bruntel has managed to sway Vlask into providing for her bad taste
with trade from the dungeon’s other inhabitants. She has a unique taste in the gaudy and clashing
styles of the world. Her eyes unlike others are soothed with the painful conflicting of colors.
What Vlask does not know is this is only the last in a series of places that Bruntel has moved into
and awaited (or caused) the eventual invasion of do-gooder adventurer’s and high muckety-muck
paladins and clerics. She chooses a place that is gaining a dangerous reputation and “camps”
there waiting for intrepid interlopers then using her disguise self to appear as a prisoner she
ambushes the group at her earliest convenience. She had the chains in the wall built to use just
for this ruse.
