Description[]
Alistair is a bright red tiefling and is very scrawny and malnourished. He wears a scarf and a lot of jangly jewelry. He smells like embers and brimstone, and something else that's familiar to Fabian, like a beard oil, even though he's clean shaven.
He was extremely loyal to his patron, Bill Seacaster, and by extension his son, Fabian. Alistair is not very self-aware, stating that he always forgets that the people he lies to have feelings, and he often spoke in a misleading manner without realizing it.
History[]
Background[]
Alistair is a street urchin in Leviathan before he is introduced to the Cult of Old Bill, a group of warlocks who buy spells from Bill Seacaster in some kind of infernal pyramid scheme. He is always short on money because, as he explains, it costs 25 gold pieces to lease a cantrip for one month or 100 gold for five, spells cost 50 gold per spell level, and if you fail to pay, Bill would give a financial incentive to the other warlocks to find and kill you. Despite this, Alistair is very enthusiastic about the deal as it doesn't involve giving up his soul. He hosts bellini brunches as part of the referral program, since mimosas are kind of overdone. He likes illusion magic and his favorite spell is disguise self.
Fantasy High: Sophomore Year[]
Alistair meets the Bad Kids when they arrive in Leviathan through the Maelstrom's Maw. Riz spots him in the crowd when he reacts to Fabian announcing that he was Bill Seacaster's son. He attempts to hoodwink the bosun into giving them their van back by disguising some rocks as gold pieces. He then shows the party through Leviathan to the Gold Gardens.
Along their journey, it is considered multiple times that Alistair may be a half-sibling of Fabian's, as Bill Seacaster has likely slept with many demons on his travels. Alistair also idolizes Fabian and Bill and smells to Fabian like a very familiar beard oil. However, these are only indications that Bill is Alistair's patron as a warlock, as he later reveals to them as they pass through the city.
He is extremely starstruck by Fabian, and gathered the warlocks together, persuading them that Fabian would save them and lead them in a fight against Captain James Whitclaw. They carry Fabian to Crow's Keep for a party, and engage in battle with Whitclaw's crew which ends disastrously. Most of the warlocks, including Alistair, are brutally murdered.
He works as an intern for Bill Seacaster aboard The Goldenrod in Hell and confronts Fabian when the Bad Kids visit Hell.
Between seasons[]
Alistair continues working for Bill Seacaster in Hell for almost more than a year. Under Bill's service, Alistair continues accruing debt.
At some point, he is contacted by some mortals in Spyre, from the coast of the Nightmare King’s Forest. A series of druids working along with the Crescent Moon Trading Company reach out to him, saying that they might have a way to get me back with the Mutineer's Bell. Alistair agrees without asking for details, he helps the druids charm a group of tieflings. Mostly by communicating with Langley Sheffield-Harrington, he helps with the construction of the infernal lamps by providing infernal runes.
Pirates of Leviathan[]
Alistair is summoned back to the material plane by Sunny Biscotto and Myrtle, breaking the curse on the Mutineer’s Bell. He tells the Buccaneer Buddies about his plan to escape Hell, and the Crescent Moon Trading Company's operation of using magically gifted gnomes trapped in the roots of trees in the coast of the Nightmare King’s Forest as conduits to contact other planes.
