What is a Fiend?
A fiend is evil, given substance, form and intelligence. This usually happens either when an otherworldly force of evil is summoned from a lower plane by a mortal, or when folkloric evil is shaped into reality by the thoughts and beliefs of generations. Examples of the former are creatures like the baatezu and tanar'ri, creatures formed from the souls of the damned over millennia and released by summoning rituals or transposition. The latter include fey-like evil such as the Straw God or White Fiend.
"Celebrated" Fiends
- The Devil Strahd who is actually not a fiend and the moniker is probably a metaphor as used by the vast majority of Barovians.
- The Black Duke thanks to The Beast of Ehrendton, his cult, and the destruction of the village of Drataan in Nova Vaasa.
- Malocchio Aderre although he is known as such by few.
- The Whistling Fiend who destroyed the village of Creeana in Darkon.
