I love the background that was added to Vanthus in 'Serpents of Scuttlecove'. It took him so many levels beyond "oh, he just went bad one day".
Will there be an opportunity for the PCs to discover his background? It'd be a shame for them to miss out on the nearly tragic yet oh-so-villainous origin of the main villain.

There absolutely will. Near the end of the path, the PCs get to meet the glabrezu who granted those wishes, and maybe a tormented larvae with a strangely familiar head...

Yup.
That happens in adventure #9. The one with Vanthus the Death Knight on the cover. :-)The final reveal to the PCs about Vanthus's history and all that occurs in part #12.

I knew Vanthus as a Death Knight would be on the cover! Can't wait to see that.
