Avernus is ruled by the archdevil Barbatos (pronounced BAR-ba-tus)[1], who holds the keys to Hell's gates and holds dominion over birds that consume the recently dead.[2][3] His unholy symbol is a tri-cornered wave of darkness or shadows surrounding three eyes.[4]
Appearance
Barbatos appears shrouded in a ragged old cloak, his features masked by impenetrable shadows, even other archdevils have not seen his face. What parts of him are glimpsed on occasion reveal an alien physiology, even to that of devils, he often walks hunched, with a cane, roots like tendrils like some grotesque mockery of a wise hermits beard shuddering out from the darkness surrounding his face and its three glowing red eyes.[5]
