[QUOTE="catenwolde, post: 4264482, member: 33889"] Poser. I'm assuming everyone is in the know about this, but here's the text from "T1-4 Temple of Elemental Evil" pg. 26. Lareth the Beautiful is the dark hope of chaotic evil—young, handsome, well endowed in abilities and aptitudes, thor- oughly wicked, depraved, and capricious. Whomever harms Lareth had best not brag of it in the presence of one who will inform the Demoness Lolth! Lareth has been sent to this area to rebuild a force of men and humanoid fighters to gather loot and restore the Temple of Ele- mental Evil to its former glory. He is but one of many so charged, of course, but is looked upon with special favor and expectation. He and his minions have been careful to raid far from this area, never nearer than three or four leagues, travelling on foot or riding in wagons of the traders from Hommlet. None of the victims are ever left alive to tell the tale, and mysterious disappearances are all that can be remarked upon. No trace of men, mounts, goods, wagons or draft ani- mals is ever found. Evil to the core, Lareth is cunning. If a situa- tion appears in doubt, he uses bribery and honeyed words to sway the balance to his favor. He is not adverse to gaining new recruits of all sorts, and will gladly accept adventurers into the ranks (though he will test and try them continually). Those who arouse suspicion will be quietly murdered in their sleep. Those with too much promise will be likewise dealt with, for Lareth wants no poten- tial usurpers or threats to his domination.
