Nothing is known about him before his fall into the Seven Hells. He ascended during The Godswar serving Belegor as the King of Hell. During the Emerald Age he stood beside Belegor after the betrayal by Kalzad and Eltax, and refused to submit to the rule of Belros Azul during the Age of Shadows. After the fall of Belegor he fled Rancor, becoming the Wandering Lord.
