	Worshipped by some in [[Forgotten Realms\|Faerun]] as a demigod of corruption and betrayal, '''Gargauth''' is an archdevil who was apparently exiled from Baator because he was too much of a handful for the other Archdukes of Hell, though much of what happened is never actually revealed. He was probably just a casualty of the politics of hell, but rather than being cast down or destroyed, he managed to get out.

	The fact that Gargauth holds some actual divine status shows that he could have been a serious power player in the politics of Hell, since it took Asmodeus so long to attain similar status for himself. Although that also illustrates the point that personal power alone can mean very little on the planes when the Archdukes of the Nine had much more widespread influence and control.

	~~Somehow got trapped in~~ a shield ~~for~~ the ~~events of~~ ''Descent into Avernus''		In prior editions he had a magic item, the ''Shield of the Hidden Lord'', which he could speak through. In 5e the shield is no longer an evil artifact created by Gargauth, but instead a celestial artifact in which he has been imprisoned. PCs can possibly find the shield in ''Descent into Avernus'', where Gargauth will try to manipulate them into freeing him.
