== Description ==
Lilis is described as an orange-skinned, middle-aged, plump she-devil. She stands 5' tall and sports glowing green eyes. She looks well-preserved and has the usual Baatezu's features (bat wings, cloven hooves, forked tail etcetera).

== History ==
Lilis is said to be one of the most knowledgeable beings in Baator. She runs a large network of spies and informants throughout the Nine Hells for her master, who stands as the sole recipient of her intelligence, as she will not even share such information with the King of [[Hell]], [[Asmodeus]].
