Brutus

A greater devil, sent by the pit fiend Ürmas to corrupt the kingdom of Terrán through taking hold of the capital. Seeing an indirect control over the generally weak king would be a safer bet, he joined the local organized crime group, the Narrows. He quickly gained through their ranks until he was the head of operations, only under the heads of families and masters of coin. Around this time, he enlisted Feet Firefetus and Chauncey to assassinate the head of the gang, along with some of the other leaders, leaving an opening to put himself in charge. With this opportunity seized, he was again shown an opening for advancing his influence in the city by wiping out the local gang the Underbite which protected the poor living outside the city walls. This led to a battle with the Underbite, as orchestrated by Holtz's Bad Company. Having only outbursts of murdering orphans to curb his voracious appetite for violence and evil, he lacked patience during the fighting and showed his true form upon seeing his dwindling forces outnumbered. He was killed by Tim Horton's first successful use of a holy smite and his twisted soul was sent back down to the pits of the Nine Hells. Feet, being under the impression that they were still friends, utilized a potion said by the Librarian to be an 'elixir of life' on Brutus in an attempt to bring him back from the dead. This restored Brutus' form, ripping his soul back into his body, but with the added side-effect of holding him in a stasis at the moment of his death. His frozen, screaming form remained lying on the ground as he felt the searing pain of Tim's final strike perpetually for several weeks until a passing cleric was able to break the stasis and silence Brutus once more, returning him back to the Nine Hells. For his failure, he was demoted and chastised by Ürmas. Weakened in power but strengthened in desire, he learned a devil's critical virtue of patience.
