Chapter 1
---------
Lloth watched as a new band of would be heroes marched through House De'Nat slaughtering her children. She knew the Immortal Crown was safe from this particular group, however the rise of so many adventures attempting to claim the crown was quickly becoming a nuisance. Lloth decided it was time to intervene and came up with a plan that would neutralize those who sought the crown, and paid a visit to Matron Mat'Lis'sk in a dream.
Several days later a summoning ritual was in full swing deep inside the House Mat'Lis'sk. Lloth was close by but did not reveal herself as she watched the Matron Mother's eldest daughter lay naked and strapped down on a large smooth black slab of onyx. The high priestess was calm and focused. She knew this is what Lloth had demanded and was ready to please her Queen. After much preparation the summoning was complete and the fiend Asmmar was pulled from the Abyss and stood over the priestess. What happened next was brutal and savage and drow blood was soon streaming over the edge of the onyx slab as wails of pain echoed from the summoning chamber.
Later that night the Matron Mat'Lis'sk's eldest daughter was resting in her chambers with several of her sisters closely watching as she winced in pain. The mating had nearly killed her and if Lloth had not provided some healing she would have surely died.
A few nights later Lloth came to Mat'Lis'sk in a dream and told her that she should be expecting a new addition to the family. A half-drow half-fiend male that will be trained as a master assassin. He will eventually travel to the surface and eliminate all those who seek the crown. Lloth told Mat'Lis'sk his name will be Xunlynvyr Sszafein'aghar.

Chapter 2
---------
Lloth was extremely pleased with Xunlynvyr's training. He had become all she had hoped for and more. Xunlynvyr lead many successful raiding parties to the surface and had prevented others from reaching her underdark city Manatakloss where the immortal crown is safely kept. However she had underestimated the thirst for power the fiend Asmmar had instilled in him.
Xunlynvyr left the drow city of Manatakloss for a mission to assassinate the leader of a community which manufactured weapons for adventuring groups to the underdark. Except this time he had to make a detour to the secluded home of the great wizard Noh Wu Jen. He had already made several visits to see Noh concerning Xunlynvyr's father Asmarr but this time was special. This time Xunlynvyr would be able to see and talk to his father.
The preparations were soon complete and the summoning ritual began. Noh's blood red eyes flared as she channeled the arcane power required to bring forth this fiend from the abyss. Asmmar could feel and welcomed the tugging of Noh's summoning spell as he had long awaited this day. Suddenly a rift formed and Asmmar stepped into the material plane to stand before Noh and his son Xunlynvyr. Father and son didn't waste any time setting the plans for Xunlynvyr's betrayal of Matron Mat'Lis'sk, taking the crown for himself and becoming an immortal.
A few weeks later the plan was set in motion. With Noh at one side, and the powerful dwarf Stonewarrior at his other, the trio systematically raided each of the great houses of Manatakloss. The battle was long and difficult and many drow lost their lives. In the end Xunlynvyr stood over Matron Mat'Lis'sk dead body, taking the necessary items needed to access the secret place where the immortal crown is kept.
Lloth watched all this take place and with each drow death her anger grew. She was not going to allow this drow male she had help to create accomplish the feat which he was designed to prevent. As Xunlynvyr entered the crown's protective chamber, the spider queen herself materialized. Mother and son stared each other down sizing each other up. This battle was imminent as Xunlynvyr was not about to let Lloth stand in his path towards immortality, and Lloth was not going to allow the crown to be taken from her possession. The battle ensued with magic flying from Noh's powerful hands and massive strikes from Stonewarrior's hammer. Xunlynvyr was hitting with precise stabs into vulnerable and soft spots in Lloths flesh. Lloth was infuriated by the power of the trio and suddenly took to her more powerful true form. More powerful strikes, more life draining magic, and more critical strikes from the master assassin slowly but surely weakened the mighty spider queen. And with one deadly accurate stab, Xunlynvyr banished the deity from the material plane.
The immortal crown was his. His plan to become immortal was soon at hand. And with the help of his new acquaintances he went on to slay the immortal, break the crown and claim that what he sought. Absolute power is absolutely bliss, but Xunlynvyr wanted more. His thirst for power would never cease. He continued to seek out ways to increase his power, slaying the mighty dustbone dragon, sucking power from the illithid overmind, bathing in the undead power of the great black pharaoh, and becoming nearly drunk with glee for every pharlan death. His power was nearing an apex, but when word spread that traveling to the nine hells of Baator had become possible, he knew he could reach his ultimate goal. And so he prepared himself for the eventual battle with the Lord of the Nine, Asmodeus.

Chapter 3
---------
How sweet does the power of Asmodeus taste? Indescribable sweet! With the awesome power sapped from the dieing corpse of the Lord of the Nine, Xunlynvyr was able to rise to a power he had only dreamed of .. that of a Demi-God. But that still wasn't enough, his thirst for power will never be quenched. New rumors of a great evil submerged deep within the depths of the underdark has emerged ... Xunlynvyr was told of an ancient race known as the Elder Evils by his father Asmmar. Now that the entrance may have been found Xunlynvyr was anxious to test his new found powers ... and was driven by his hunger for more ... the hunger and his quests for power will never end.
