'''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 angels and demons 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.
