Bit of a rant, and I’m not a true expert or anything, but as far as I could tell, Iggwilv used to be the baddest mother f#%&er. Fraz Urb’luu and Graz’zt at her beck and call at the same time, and when she lost the latter she seduced the lord of hedonism! She’s a terror of the world and if you’re in her way you’re almost certainly chewed up and spat out unless she has a use for you. She’s the demonologist, with knowledge of the Abyss rivaling some of the Demon Lords.

And now her alignment is whatever she wants and she consorts with celestials too? Huh? What celestial knowingly associates with Iggwilv, the adopted child of Baba Yaga, progenitor of Iuz, and absolute menace to the world? And now she’s like a feylord? The big Demonologist, the very demon based woman, the ultimate demon based person, feylord? Doesn’t sit too well with me.

I read article about the change and it talked about how it was forward thinking to change this character’s alignment as a strong woman. I don’t wanna say that FR shouldn’t have strong women, but does watering down Iggwilv, a pristine top tier villain, the kind of npc you want players to go “Oh shit we’re up against her!?” doesn’t feel right to me. Especially when we could use some cool new characters.

Hopefully this made sense. I don’t mean to offend anyone. Best wishes.
