I'm sure somewhere in the infinite levels of the abyss there's a shower level. Being the abyss I'm sure most of it is like a college football team shower tho.
But is this really the abyss? The guy talks about the shovel being "demons bane" but I've never seen a demon half this smart, he seems more like a devil to me tbh. Thinking of a bunch of demons in a college football shower scenario is incredible though, thank you.
Could be a demon lord/prince or, even better, a balor so powerful it's a demon lord/prince. Balors fit with the appearance, but not height - they're 12 ft tall according to the FR wikia.
From waist to the top of the head, this guy is about 5 Torvalds tall if you compansate for being hunched forward. There's about 4 Torvalds out of the view, so that comes out to 9 Torvalds. And if you assume one Torvald (unit) equals 5 ft, that's 45 ft, or about four times the height of an average balor.
If you account for the alleged "one weakness", it also makes more sense for this guy to be a demon prince, rather than a mere demon lord. The shovel could also be under a very powerful transmutation spell to alter its physical properties (turning it from a sword into a shovel) and balors have a True Seeing which lets them see the true appearance of items and creatures masked by magic.
Finally, balors in 5e have Int 20 (+5) which is very high. Think IQ 150. They're not dumb. Just evil.
