Pied Piper II

The Pied Piper is an upcoming villain who possesses a malevolent flute that grants him the ability to not only control others but also consume their life-essences, effective trapping them within his cape for use as demonic "puppets".

Despite sharing his name with the Wonderland villain he is not the same entity and has links to the infernal world, since his flute is powered by the primordial energies of a long-dead Elder Demon whose final act before destruction was to create a means for its evil to continue to survive, an act that did not go in vain as the Pied Piper has taken to the flute with manic glee and seeks nothing short of complete domination over time and space.
