Just finished this as a bit of guilty pleasure art. This is one of the villain NPCs, called Mirth of Drowned Children, from a game of Exalted I played in.... years ago .
Mirth is one of the very few adversaries who survived our player group by a combination of being a capable fighter, a charming conversationalist, a calculating schemer, and knowing when to run the hell away. He was/is also obnoxiously handsome. Like, as a system mechanic. As one might expect, our party had a very love/hate relationship with him.
