[edit] Description
Cozbinaer is described as an exquisitely beautiful she-devil with fair skin, long green hair and a body reddening from the waist down. She also has a slim pointed tail she hangs over one arm and vampire-like fangs for canine teeth. Her eyes are scarlet.
[edit] History
Cozbinaer was exiled to Avernus along with her master and his loyal lieutenant Amon upon the Reckoning of Hell. As soon as they entered the layer, Geryon's followers were attacked by Levistus's followers who slew the major part of Geryon's court. Cozbinaer was horribly wounded during these conflicts and now appears as a zombie-like harridan whose body is covered in scars, skin grafts and withered flesh. Though she should have died long ago from her wounds, she is kept alive through profane magic and hellish technology and spends her time in a glass chamber where a poisonous yellow gas is funneled by tubes. If she has to leave this room, she wears a bizarre armored suit that contains the same gas, which is deadly to anyone but her.
Cozbinaer is currently rekindling her relationship with Glasya, Asmodeus's daughter, with whom she shares a profound hatred for Levistus.
[edit] Creative origins
Cozbinaer's name is inspired by the name of a pagan priestess of Jewish mythology named Cozbi.
