I'm ashamed to admit I had no idea about Lerrek being Iggwilv's lover. Is there any specific source for him? Is anything roughly canon?

Most importantly, is there an image of him or a description of his appearance? Yeah, I'm one of those visual learners. This stuff helps make my D&D experience more real.

Please and thank you all.

Lastly, is the whole connection Iggwilv shares with Baba Yaga canon? I don't like it, as it seems to diminish Iggwilv.

See "Lerrek's Tale" in Oerth Journal 13 by Andy Seale.

It was also available at the Codex of Greyhawk, under the 'Miscellaneous' tab, here:

Lerrek was first mentioned in Iuz the Old in the Vesve Forest section. There is a description of his tower, but not of the lich himself. So I take Lerrek's Tale to be as canonical as any other source.
