'''Barbatos''' is the [[Archdevil]] of Avernus, the first layer of [[Hell]], in [[Pathfinder]]. Despite his title, he is not a [[devil]] or even a [[fiend]]. He resembles some kind of hunched being made from barbed tentacle vines. As the gatekeeper of Hell, he protects the plane from invasions by [[angel]]s and [[demon]]s alike and makes sure that the souls of the damned are ferried to their final fates. Him not being a devil harkens back to D&D's [[Hag]] Countess [[Malagard]], who just like Barbatos is from outside of the plane. Except she's a Hag and Barbatos is... well, it's not entirely clear.

Barbatos is the only archdevil who is not the original ruler of his layer. The first Lord of the First was [[Typhon]], who was killed by the [[empyreal lord]] [[Ragathiel]].
