Shadow Fiend minimap icon Nevermore, the Shadow Fiend
It is said that Nevermore the Shadow Fiend has the soul of a poet, and in fact he has thousands of them. Over the ages he has claimed the souls of poets, priests, emperors, beggars, slaves, philosophers, criminals and (naturally) heroes; no sort of soul escapes him. What he does with them is unknown. No one has ever peered into the Abysm whence Nevermore reaches out like an eel from among astral rocks. Does he devour them one after another? Does he mount them along the halls of an eldritch temple, or pickle the souls in necromantic brine? Is he merely a puppet, pushed through the dimensional rift by a demonic puppeteer? Such is his evil, so intense his aura of darkness, that no rational mind may penetrate it. Of course, if you really want to know where the stolen souls go, there's one sure way to find out: Add your soul to his collection. Or just wait for Nevermore.

Artifact[]

In the story of Artifact, Nevermore was the only member present to speak for the Court of Ristul. A desperate Vhoul commander named Rix approached him and asked for power that would allow him to gain a great advantage in their struggle as they were already losing the war against the Bronze Legion.[6] A deal was struck between them and Rix's soul was claimed by Nevermore, turning him into a demonic version of himself, followed by his dead Vhoul comrades in Roseleaf being reanimated into the world of matter.[7]

Nevermore also has a flock of disciples who resemble his demonic genielike form. Just like their master, these followers carry out his work in striking deals with mortals, usually finding such work in places with conflict and desperation.[8]
