A Pleasure demon and his pocket dimension.

They appear to wield considerable power. As a magical creature, they have magic independent of the Wellspring and uses it to create pocket worlds that appeal to all the fantasies of their targets which they then use to feeds off their happiness. Their pocket worlds are such that it allows magicians to perform magic, albeit only party tricks, during a period when the old gods cut off magic from all worlds.
