A Fiendish Bet In the depths of the Abyss, the domain of Takhisis, two dark powers argue over the nature of true nobility. To see if the ignoble can be made noble, they return one of their evil-hearted agents to life. They choose Fewmaster Toede, former ruler of Flotsam, recently dead from dragon fire. Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time. . . The most outrageous villian of the Companions of the Lance is once more loose on the face of Krynn, and he is a hobgoblin with a mission - to become noble, no matter who or what gets in his way. TSR novelist and gamemaster Jeff Grubb has written this fiendishly comic story. The Villians Series explores the corrupted origins of the malevolent minions of Takhisis, Queen of Darkness.
