Lerrek who?

I'm ashamed to admit I had no idea about Lerrek being Iggwilv's lover. Is there any specific source for him? Is anything roughly canon?

Most importantly, is there an image of him or a description of his appearance? Yeah, I'm one of those visual learners. This stuff helps make my D&D experience more real.

Please and thank you all.


Lastly, is the whole connection Iggwilv shares with Baba Yaga canon? I don't like it, as it seems to diminish Iggwilv.

I don't think it is canon. Baba Yaga is definitely a good plot device for Iggwilv (I think that name is too weird for a sorceress). As for the rest, I know others can help.

Lerrek

See "Lerrek's Tale" in Oerth Journal 13 by Andy Seale.

It was also available at the Codex of Greyhawk, under the 'Miscellaneous' tab, here:

Lerrek was first mentioned in Iuz the Old in the Vesve Forest section. There is a description of his tower, but not of the lich himself. So I take Lerrek's Tale to be as canonical as any other source.

O-D
