Well, since we can fight Demogorgon in Watchers keep, I figured it would be kind of cool to fight an archdevil from hell as well, as in this case, Bel, lord of the first.
Obviously quite a lot weaker than Demogorgon of course ( I doubt even Asmodeus could take the Mighty Prince of Demons on and live to tell the tale ).
My suggestion is as following, make Bel a fightable character on the thrid floor of watchers keep.
His appearance could be an imported look from Belhifet ( IWD1 ).
No doubt, he should be very powerfull indeed, as he is after all a lord of the nine hells of Baator.
However, since his appearance will be on the third floor of watchers keep, this means his actual form will be there ( Unlike Demogorgon, whose avatar is trapped ).
This means he also, unlike Demogorgon, has full access to his powers.

Well, anyway, i thought it'd be cool if the belhifet paper doll could be put in BG2 on some extremely powerfull Baatezu or Tan'narri.

I assume you mean "animation" as you'll only see the paperdoll if it's a joinable NPC (and if there's a paperdoll at all - don't think so for this one).

There are several mods that use the Belhifet animation (Drizzt Saga, RoT, TDD and/or TS) - not sure for what exactly though. Obviously, other mods could too, certainly with Infinity Animations installed (which resolves animation conflicts among other things, so your belhifets don't look like mariliths or whatever).

Hmm, I've never read anything about those, but I might as well check it up.
Does the infinity Animation installment allow for us to use IWD animations in bg2 ( like poquelin and such )?
I'm kind of new to this.

If memory serves, Tiamat rules Avernus during the time of BGII, and Bel is a general in the infernal army. I'm trying to find a reference to when, in Dalereckoning, the change occurred to Bel being granted lordship.
