Infernal Lich?

[RndmNumGen]

I remember hearing something a while back about a type of lich that rather than using an object as phylactery, uses a devil instead. I don't remember where I saw that though. Does this seem familiar to anybody else?

Ah, thanks.

You might be thinking of the lichfiend, an undead outsider whose soul is held by their master rather than a phylactery.

(not exclusive to devils)

This is false. A lichfiend still constructs a phylactery, it is just an outsider with a bunch of spell-like abilities instead of an arcane caster. (see Libris Mortis p.156/157)

The version in Dragon magazine evidently works differently then.
