Bio: Viseth grew up under the wing of wandering merchant Beth Hammond, who discovered and adopted the devil-touched child. Her skill in trading blossomed along with her powers, and she settled in the city of Barclan when her parent stopped there, taking work with the shipping companies at the docks. Her devilish heritage may have made her fears and turned honest merchants against her, but it also gave her advantages she used to curb and control the criminal elements, using them to undercut her opponents and earn legitimacy. It also attracted the attention of fell powers, and her divine grandparent, a Pit Fiend of tremendous power called Red Sarthis. When he whispered the knowledge of how to make pacts, Viseth heard, and instead sought out other powers, altering the contract with knowledge purchased or stolen. It was through her that she discovered the Endless Gold - a great entity that came to her dreams, intrigued by her will and lust for wealth and power. She bonded with the great old one, severing her connection to her Grandfather and dashing the plans he had conceived her for.

Viseth rose quickly with her newfound power, taking head of her own organization, the Hammond Consortium. But she desired true ownership and legitimacy, which required a noble title - something that couldn't be bought. Her attempts to corner the markets and use crime and magic to control all southern shipping put her into several conflicts with mercenary adventurers. Her own servants, including her ninja bodyguard, often clashed with them as she enthralled key officials or just plain convinced them through their greed. Her grand plan, awakening a kraken to rule shipping routes and controlling it with a powerful ritual, came to a violent interruption thanks to a certain wizard (or sorceror), resulting in her being cast across the planes...

Appearance: Tall, dark-skinned, with a mane of black hair with dark violet roots, purple multi-pupiled eyes and sharp teeth, twin tails (the short, prehensile kind). Also, a foot-long tongue.
