Malkizid is a devil. That, too.:D
Orignally a Solar, he was cast down into the Nine Hells. Thousands of years ago, he displeased Asmodeus, and he and some of his followers were exiled. He settled with the Yuggoloths, and is now considered both a Yuggoloth Lord and an Archdevil in exile.
Talk about a convoluted status...
Also, since angels are now servants of Deities, and no longer just creatures of good, would Malkizid, being a former angel, have heeded the call of the divine?..
Mmmh...
By LordKarsus -Elminster has had virtually every woman- Mystra, the Simbul, assorted barmaids, your mom...
By Faraer The gods were very much not intended to have frequent interaction with Toril except through dream-visions and such small manifestations -- that's entirely an artefact of novels trying to repeat the sales of 1989's Avatar trilogy, and quite at odds with the setting's history prior to that ongoing novel timeline. The gods rarely act in Faerûn on a large scale: that's why the Time of Troubles in 1358 DR was supposed to be such a cataclysmic shock. It's the priesthoods who act.

The following is a list compiled by Rip Van Wormer over on Enworld and the Planewalker forums. I've also added on a bunch of others after this initial list. I won't claim it's comprehensive, but it's a nice list. How relevant they are to your campaign depends on what cosmology you use, be it Great Wheel (the vast majority of 'loths and their details come from there), Great Tree (a few names but little detail), or whatever the hell 4e calls itself (with next to no detail and a more or less erasure of yugoloths as a race of fiends).
Name: A'kin Species: Arcanaloth Alias: The Friendly Fiend Desc: Head of a fanged jackal. Wide, white strip of fur partially encircling his golden eyes like a bandit's mask. Six golden hoop earrings in his ears. Hair pulled into multiple tiny tufts, held together by golden bands. Clean, sandy brown fur. Wears a robe speckled with teal, gold, and black. Low, raspy voice. Operates: "The Friendly Fiend", a magic item shop in Sigil Source: Uncaged: Faces of Sigil
Name: Duke Dyavin B'Wee Species: Arcanaloth Alias: Dyavin Desc: Thin, almost skeletal, covered in stiff white fur. Operates: Dyavin is a record-keeper in the Tower Arcane in Gehenna. His title "Duke" probably indicates he's quite a high-up there. He's also an ally of A'kin, helping the Friendly Fiend procure documents and bits of chant in exchange for favors. Source: Hellbound: The Blood War
Name: M'trenz Ro Species: Ultroloth Alias: M'trenz Desc: Faceless, eyes like fire-opals. Operates: Wanders the Outlands, claiming to be on the run from his race. Often hires mortal pawns for missions to the Lower Planes. Source: Hellbound: The Blood War
Name: Krell Species: Arcanaloth Alias: none Desc: Wolf-headed, so gaunt her ribs visibly show through her skin. Her cape is in tatters, her brown fur is mangy, and her eyes are red from weeping. She stinks of urine and arcanaloth-poo. Operates: From a cave in Colothys in Carceri, where she fled after being stripped of her rank and power due to political disagreements with a higher-ranking arcanaloth. May ultimately turn to good in desperation, but will become evil again if she gets her power back. Source: Well of Worlds
Name: Shemeshka the Marauder Species: Arcanaloth Alias: King of the Cross-Trade Desc: Face like a groomed fox from the fields of Arcadia. Her spotless coppery fur is soft and tangle-free, and thin white streaks fan out from the end of her snout to the edges of her face. She's never without her spidery razorvine headdress, and would not be caught dead without her garish beads, jewelry, bracelets, ring, or regal robe. Operates: The Fortune's Wheel, an opulent gambling bar in The Lady's Ward where the rich and powerful conduct secretive dealings. Source: Uncaged: Faces of Sigil
Name: The General of Gehenna Species: Ultroloth? (probably) Alias: unknown Desc: unknown Operates: The Crawling City in Gehenna. Controls the entire yugoloth race. Puppetmaster of the Blood War. Source: Planescape Monstrous Compendium, Hellbound: The Blood War, Faces of Evil: The Fiends, 3rd edition Manual of the Planes
Name: unknown Species: Ultroloth Alias: unknown Desc: Bald, fire-opal eyes Operates: Is an observer of the Blood War roaming the Field of Nettles in the Gray Waste. If the PCs don't bother it, it won't bother them. Source: Hellbound: The Blood War
Name: unknown Species: Ultroloth Alias: unknown Desc: Motionless, its spare frame covered by a voluminous black cloak. Ebony eyes. Voice like the buzzing of strange bees in a hive or the crash of acidic waves on a sulfurous shore. Operates: In a cavern in the Outlands or a house in Hopeless, angered by arms shipments from the Upper Planes. Wants the celestials to keep their noses out of the Blood War. Source: Hellbound: The Blood War
Name: unknown Species: Ultroloth Alias: Crassag's Master Desc: Its form melds to its throne like clay, its smooth, supple hands caressing the arms of the rough stone seat. Piercing, fiery white eyes. Capable of agile leaps. Operates: A cavern made from the living, agonized bodies of yugoloths of every type. It sits on an animate throne. Source: Hellbound: The Blood War
Name: Anthraxus Species: Altraloth (former ultroloth) Alias: The Diseased Desc: 10' tall man in a rotting gray suit and cape, ram's head grossly deformed by disease. Foamy spittle drips constantly from his mouth, and the matted wool on his body pulls away from his skin in handfuls. Anthraxus' skin is covered with festering boils which continually burst spraying out foul yellow pus while peeling Anthraxus' skin away from the fleshy tissue underneath. Operates. Former Oinoloth (preceding Mydianchlarus). He wanders between numerous hidden keeps and safehouses throughout the Lower Planes filled with magical items and money. He uses these riches to finance the obsessive schemes that bring him ever closer to reclaiming Khin-Oin. Source: Dragon Magazine Annual #2
Name: Mydianchlarus Species: Ultroloth Alias: unknown Desc: Faceless humanoid with large eyes that resemble fire-opals. Dark gray skin and flowing cloak. Unlike every other Oinoloth, the power of the Siege Malicious has left no marks on the face of Mydianchlarus; it is as smooth and unsullied as it was when he first became an ultroloth. Only three physical changes are known: his footprints are bloody; the hem of his robe is red and dripping even in the gloom of the Waste; a trail of blood follows him wherever he goes. This, for Mydianchlarus, is curse enough; his cherished anonymity is now gone forever. Operates: From the Wasting Tower of Khin-Oin in the Gray Waste, where he rules as the current Oinoloth. Chant is that he made Anthraxus give up his post by whispering a single secret in his ear. Source: Faces of Evil: The Fiends, Description by Rip
Name: Bubonix Species: Altraloth (former arcanaloth) Alias: Overlord of Carceri Desc: 12' tall hideous humanoid covered in putrid black lumpy sores. His body exudes the stench of decayed, rotting flesh. Bubonix always wears a military uniform of the purest white, which is somehow not stained from the constant flow of blackest pus oozing from his sores. Operates: Patiently camped outside the still-under-construction Tower of Incarnate Pain in Carceri. Bubonix sees himself as eventually becoming the self-styled counterpart of the General of Gehenna. Source: Dragon Magazine Annual #2
Name: Cholerix Species: Altraloth (former nycaloth) Alias: unknown Desc: A dehydrated nycaloth stands, its wings withered into vestigial limbs, its face nothing more than a skull with sickly jaundiced, faintly green tinged skin stretched over it. Dressed in a deep red robe that hurts the eyes while in the Waste, the altraloth is decked in gold and jewels. Though you cannot explain why, you know this being is female. The stench of urea and vomit surround her, though her emaciated body seems paradoxically sterile. This is the form of Cholerix, an altraloth whose only seeming ambition is to serve Bubonix in return for wealth unending. Operates: Oversees the yugoloth army camped outside the still-under-construction Tower of Incarnate Pain in Carceri and personally meets with tanar'ri lords to forge mercenary contracts on behalf of Bubonix. Source: Dragon Magazine Annual #2, sciborg from the Wizards boards (who I stole the description from)
Name: Xengahra Species: Altraloth Alias: Death-Bringer, the Fallen One Desc: Were it not for the expression of utter despair that hangs upon this altraloth's haggard face, a blood might believe herself in the presence of a true solar, the most powerful of aasimon. Operates: As an outcast, Xengahra has taken to roaming the Outlands these past few centuries. He drains away life from even the heartiest of celestials. He is the literal embodiment of hopelessness. Source: Dragon Magazine Annual #2
Name: Cerlic Species: Altraloth Alias: Charon, the Stygian Boatman, the Ferryman Desc: He appears as a large, skeletal marraenoloth standing just 7' tall with bright green eyes that glow malevolently. Operates: A stronghold on the Astral Plane built entirely of black ice. Cerlic is lord and defender of all the marraenoloths. Source: Dragon Magazine Annual #2
Name: Typhus Species: Altraloth Alias: unknown Desc: A 12' tall misshapen yugoloth looking much like a hunch-backed mezzoloth with a limp. Beings within 10' of him catch a terrible fever. Operates: One of the greatest combat minds in the planes, Typhus unfortunately has a serious lack of wisdom. He commands a rag-tag mercenary army called the Infernal Front, composed of outcast baatezu, tanar'ri, tieflings, humans, slaadi, and a handful of rogue modrons. He is a rival to both the General of Gehenna and Bubonix, and plans to end the Blood War. Source: Dragon Magazine Annual #2
Name: Taba Species: Altraloth Alias: Myriad Desc: Taba is seen in any number of forms, most often female. She speaks all lower planar tongues with no accent and can radiate any evil alignment she chooses. Operates: Taba's the ultimate master spy and thief, with the ability to take the shape of any fiend. With this ability, she is easily able to slip into and out of the depths of any of the Lower Planes without notice. Her approach to infiltration and espionage is practically foolproof. Rest assured, Taba will get you in. This altraloth never fails. Only the night hags know how to contact her. Source: Dragon Magazine Annual #2
Name: Helekanalaith Species: Arcanaloth Alias: The Keeper of the Tower Arcane Desc: He grinned ruefully and flicked the tip of one chocolate brown ear, a bit of cinder blown by the wind having struck it and smoldered. Larsdana looked at the younger Arcanaloth as hovered inches suspended over a lump of basalt, his scarlet and golden robes dangling below him, blowing softly in the wind. Operates: Helekanalaith is in charge of the Tower of the Arcanaloths in Chamada, Gehenna's second volcano. The Tower is one of only two and a half great towers that the yugoloths control; it is one of the great sources of new mezzoloths and one of the most important sites in all 'lothdom. Helekanalaith is sadistic and ambitious. He imprisoned his mentor and former lover, Larsdana ap Nuet, in a soul gem. Source: Planes of Conflict, Todd Stewart (Shemmy)
Name: Larsdana ap Nuet Species: Arcanaloth Alias: Architect of the Tower Arcane Desc: A slender, almost anemically thin arcanaloth with a coat of light tan and grayish fur and a shoulder length mane of brilliant scarlet hair, blending to raven black at the tips. She smiled, baring fangs. She turned, her cobalt robes swirling in the air. She has violet eyes. Operates: She built the Tower Arcane as a focal point for the arcanaloths' power. Helekanalaith was her apprentice, and her lover, and the cause of her ruin. Source: Planes of Conflict, Todd Stewart (Shemmy)
Name: Ailanreanter Species: Arcanaloth Alias: unknown Desc: unknown Operates: Ailanreanter claims the yugoloths seek only good; it's just that their definition of "good" is different from most. He or she enjoys messing with peoples' heads. Source: Planes of Conflict
Name: Alcain Fem'at Species: Arcanaloth Alias: unknown Desc: Golden fur. Operates: Alcain Fem'at is a contact of Enkillo the Sly, a tiefling expert on fiends. He claims that yugoloths are simply merchants, not the puppetmasters many claim they are. Alcain has a nycoloth assistant, and is probably a liar. But then, he knows you know that. Source: Faces of Evil: The Fiends
Name: Incarus Species: Yagnoloth Desc: A large, horrible creature with two unequal arms, one man-sized and the other giant-sized. Incarus has scaly red skin, bulky muscles, and a horrid, skull-like head with wing-like ears. Operates: Dwelling deep beneath Sigil's streets, Incarus is a scheming yugoloth who watches over and occasionally manipulates events in the City of Doors. He communicates with Ely Cromlich of the Doomguard through an artifact called the Nightmare Shaft. He hopes to conquer Sigil with an army of fiends. Source: Faction War
Name: Nisviim Species: Arcanaloth Alias: The Oinoloths' Right Hand Desc: Jackal-headed Operates: Nisviim was bound by his true name to the service of Anthraxus long ago, becoming the altraloth's most trusted servant and ultimately the seneschal of the Wasting Tower. When Anthraxus abandoned his throne in Khin-Oin, he took no servants with him, not even Nisviim. As a result, the arcanaloth continues in the role Anthraxus chose for him, serving Mydianchlarus as he once served his predecessor. However, Nisviim is not bound to Mydianchlarus as he is to Anthraxus, so his loyalty is more to Khin-Oin itself than to the Oinoloth. Nisviim also fears Anthraxus' return, and thus will do nothing against his former lord's interest. Source: Paul Kemp (converted to the Great Wheel cosmology by Rip)
Name: Daerith Species: Nycaloth Alias: unknown Desc: unknown Operates: Tried to enter the palace of Malsheem unannounced; was torn apart by pit fiends. According to the rules in force at the time, Daerith should have eventually regenerated in Hades or Gehenna. Source: Dragon #76 (Ed Greenwood)
