'''Mephistopheles''' is the archdevil ruler of {{FRWiki|Cania}}, the eighth layer of the {{FRWiki|Nine Hells}}. While he himself does not appear within ''[[Baldur's Gate 3]]'', he has a presence within [[Astarion]]'s Origin quest. [[Mephistopheles tiefling]]s descend from bloodlines affected by Mephistopheles. | |||

After the fall of [[Netheril]], Mephistopheles sequestered the [[Crown of Karsus]] away in one of his archival vaults. Mephistopheles son, [[Raphael]], coveted the crown, but was unable to obtain it for a thousand years. Eventually, the crown was stolen by the cult of the [[Absolute]], and Raphael put into motion plans to take it for himself. | After the fall of [[Netheril]], Mephistopheles sequestered the [[Crown of Karsus]] away in one of his archival vaults.
