Description
Approximately of human height, Titivilus has pale skin, goatlike legs covered in black fur, a pair of small black wings, and two small black horns sprouting from his forehead. Despite this, those who observe him feel an uncanny sense of kinship.He has the ability to spew a torrent of blasphemous words that corrupt those who hear them to lawful evil.

This has caused some to suspect that Titivilus is Dispater in disguise, or that Titivilus has in fact killed and replaced his master. As Dispater's confidante, Titivilus has the ability to rouse the armies of Dis or send pit fiends fleeing in terror.
