Pathfinder Religion Guide: Devils and Devil Demigods

[Music] foreign hi there I'm the myth keeper welcome back to my channel we're back to my religion Series this time and a few weeks ago I did a video on the Imperial Lords and that series will continue uh but I'm gonna vacillate between them and also the demigods of the infernal Pantheon as well so this week instead of talking about angels I'm talking about their opposites I'm talking about Devils this is a really fun video enjoy devils and Arc devils three weeks ago I released my first video on the Imperial Lords and I discussed the Paragon race known as the Angels but it's not just good line Souls that can Ascend to a post-mortal paragon kind just as there are three good-lined planes there are also three evil aligned planes which are hell a badon and the abyss in addition to petitioners the most basic form that a judge Soul can take these planes are populated by three evil ascended Paragon types the Devils of Hell the Demons of Abaddon and the Demons of the Abyss in addition to these three there are a few other types of extra planar entities that dwell in these planes these include the yazuras the horsemen and the clip-oths just to name a few this is the first of four episodes I'll be doing on a series on the high Lords of the hells in each of the episodes I'll cover one or more of the Paragon races and in this episode I'll discuss Devils first I'll talk about the most common varietals and forms of devil kind and then I'll provide a brief summary of the most prominent High Lords because just as with good Paragon kind becoming a paragon of Vice and assuming the ascended form of the devil is sometimes only the first step in a longer Journey particularly terrible or destined individuals become more than just a devil they acquire a small spark of divinity and become one of the high Lords of Hell either as one of the malabrash or an infernal duke or queen of the night or as a mighty Arc devil just like the Imperial Lords they have their own worshipers and they can bestow magic to their chosen clerics and seek to influence mortal Affairs guiding Mortals into the paths of depravity and darkness evil comes in many forms and each of these Arc Devils or Queens possesses individual personalities agendas and points of view let's start with an introduction to Devils it would be foolish for any to assert full knowledge of the secrets of hell and of the countless inhabitants who dwell in its nine layers any who would suggest they know the entirety of the infernal realm is indicative of a limited or ignorant mortal mindset what I've tried to do here instead is to Simply highlight the Devils that have been most thoroughly documented by galerion's prominent diabolists sorted in terms of physical size but not necessarily in terms of power from the smallest devil to the largest imps vary widely in appearance ranging through a spectrum of beastial traits and grotesque body shapes though most take the form of red-skinned winged humanoids with bulbous features such a typical imp stands a mere two feet tall has a three foot wingspan and weighs about 10 pounds the imps are known for being Craven pandering in sadistic weaklings who obey anyone stronger than themselves however they have calculated minds and patiently serve even the most unfit they manipulate those who may think they are their masters and turn on them when the time is right summoning imps has become widespread throughout the material world especially on galarian where there are a large number of diabolists the Imp is one of the first things a budding diabolus learns to summon a lemur is a fleshy stunted thing that stands just four feet tall but is fattened and bulky sometimes weighing as much as 200 pounds the Lemurs are creatures that emerge from the depths of Hell born from the filth of the most disgusting pit of the Multiverse they are fundamentally evil and have no personality of their own waiting for infernal entities to shape them into whatever form their masters desire lemirs are kind of like blank slates with their minds existing but empty they are maniacal evil Souls given flesh and unless explicitly commanded otherwise by their Bettors they will attack anyone or anything that happens to come their way the ear and knees are corrupted Angelic Spirits turned away from the path of righteousness by infernal imaginations most iranis stand just under six feet tall and weigh approximately 140 pounds even with their black feathered wings that stretch over 10 feet wide these fallen angels are some of the most valued Warriors in the infernal armies valued for their varied skills and prowess in battle they Harbor intense hatred for Mortals and often use their misleading forms to Ambush and murder them they use magical robes which also reflect their roles as ensnares of mortal Souls or bearded Devils typically stand over six feet tall they're their squatting battle stances often make them appear shorter and they weigh upwards of 200 pounds barbaziz or hell's Rank and file legionnaires who know only battle and obedience they lack guile but they make up for it with versatility and reliability forming the Ironclad backbone of hellish armies when they are Unleashed upon the Mortal plane they're cruelty and Effectiveness mark them as embodiments of the unflinching discipline of hell when summoned Away From Hell by mortal diabolists barbazus initially struggle to resist whatever magic compels them and in time they may come to serve their new Masters nearly as devotedly as their commanders in hell hematulas or Barb Devils stand upwards of seven feet tall and weigh 300 pounds though their leanly muscled bodies appear much larger due to the constant growing and adjusting spines that protrude from their razor-sharp bodies hamatulas are diabolical Sentinels that guard the treasuries of Hell deadly warriors with fearsome forms they are icons of devil kind with Mastery of flames and Immortal patients himachalas are favored by infernal Lords for their vicious loyalty they relish stalking prey until the point when a foe is impaled on their barbs and roasted in Hellfire when summoned outside of hell they are highly irritable and dangerous especially if they are drawn away from protecting their post for an infernal Lord some prove inconsolable making them the deadliest of lesser Devils to summon as they attempt to murderously pervert even the least of their summoner's whims others may be placated with promises of exotic and blasphemous Treasures in exchange for temporary service hamotulates seek ways to return to hell and gather troves of riches that they intend to carry with them as well as mortal prisoners upon which their infernal Lords might Place particular value Aussie lifts Tower over lesser Devils at nine feet tall though their tails and fearsome but useless Wings make them appear much larger and they weigh upwards of 400 pounds alsolets are diabolical creatures that serve as insectile inquisitors of the infernal realm bone devils are hell's secret police ensuring that even the most powerful Devils adhere to the laws of Hell aussieleths have the duty of rooting out and destroying both infiltrators from the abyss and other hostile planes as well as infernal natives who would leave hell vulnerable to depredations dissenters Guardians who shirk their duties and infernal Lords who cultivate their goals at the expense of their Brethren all face investigation from these spies when they discovered disloyalty among their own kind they either drag those weaker than themselves to have their secrets and accomplices extracted Through Torture or expose those more powerful than them to their betters cornagons are horned Devils rise to a hulking nine feet tall bearing a 14-foot wingspan and weighing 700 pounds cornagons are Elite devil soldiers forged in the Flames of malabulge and the Winds of cockatus they are the perfect products of the infernal War Machine girded in Scales harder than iron with wings that grant them Mastery over the hellish Skies the Lords of Hell value each horned devil as a legion of lesser Devils most find themselves leading whole Legions of lesser Devils as field commanders and massive skirmishes against the hordes of the Maelstrom and the abyss others face more subtle tasks such as infiltrating a Bastion of the Divine or acting as the Vanguard of Hell's armies sent to prepare a mortal realm for conquering cornigons endure centuries of training in mock Warfare striving to become malbrush the warlord champions of hell gelugons or ice Devils stand a towering 12 feet tall and weigh approximately 700 pounds the galagons are far more than just ice Devils with control over cold and a preference for dwelling in The Frigid depths of hell they possess infernally logical minds and impenetrable icy Hearts making them the masterminds of hell and among the most cunning of devil kind their great intellects make them far deadlier than their physical prowess would suggest galagon spend their time seeking weak points and Heavenly defenses exploiting gamuts of demon Lords and the tides of mortal sentiment that make whole worlds ready for damnation they prefer Solitude creating chilling alien layers in the lowest layers of Hell meditating upon the Multiverse and seeking opportunities to spread hell's influence pit fiends are the Pinnacle of devil kind and among the most feared inhabitants of Hell pitfins always stand over 14 feet tall with wingspans in excess of 20 feet and weighing over a thousand pounds they rule as unquestioned generals of the infernal realm with only the infernal dukes and other Nobles of Hell commanding greater Authority physically indomitable and even more cunning than the gelligons pit fiends are brooding Warlords found throughout hell commanding vast diabolical armies or conducting more subtle plots their unspeakable shrewdness and deadliness make them diabolical princes with varied personalities and passions all sharing the aspiration to join the ranks of true diabolical nobility pitfiends rarely travel alone outside of Hell instead journeying with Legions of diabolical Warriors those Mortals who seek to command them must be among the most evil specifically favored by an infernal Duke Arc devil or asmodius himself the high Lords of Hell the high Lords of Hell fall into five categories first there are the gods of hell and the overall command structure of Hell ultimately rolls up to one individual as modius the Prince of Darkness a God I discuss in more detail in my infernal God series there are a few other deities that reside in hell as well but they exist outside of Hal's diabolical command structure these include the dragon God de hak also discussed in my infernal Gods videos the giant Gods minder Hall and zerzvater which are discussed in more detail in my giant Pantheon video as well as the secretive gods of the hellish domain of satsendu yejing and general susumo two gods that I won't cover here today but I might get into in a future video on God's worshiped primarily in tiancr in the proper hellish chain of command there exists beneath as modius a whole host of lesser demigods the most powerful of which are the ark Devils only eight of which exist at any one time and each of whom has been granted sovereignty over one of the nine layers of Hell by his modius himself who retains authority of nessus the ninth and deepest layer himself beneath the ark Devils who rule much of Hell lie three additional ranks of infernal demigods the first are the queens of the night which consist of four powerful demigods who have achieved the near impossible establishing their own Realms and Power in a plane dominated by misogyny secondly The Infernal Dukes are an elite cast of devil kind from whom the next Arc Devil May someday rise the least of these three ranks are the malbrush hell's conquering Lord generals who have each been charged with conquering a specific planet on the material plane in Hell's name The Arc Devils Mephistopheles lord of the eighth Mephistopheles rules over Cana the second deepest layer of hell and is therefore the second greatest Authority in Hell after his modius and is consequently commonly known as the seneshal of hell Cana is also called the bones of Hell a realm of immense spikes and chains amid a dark and dismal Gulf Mephistopheles is known by various titles such as the devil King the Crimson sun and The Merchant of souls he is the most fervent Apostle of hell and his deadly Temptations and fiery rhetoric her Hearts resist he possesses the resources and Magic to Grant nearly any mortal wish but in exchange he plants the seeds of damnation within them sealing each contract with Mortal blood and gaining more souls in the process as modius upon arriving in Hell explored the domains that would become house layers and created Mephistopheles by molding the scorched skin of the land into a being of ashes and hellfire Mephistopheles the primogenial devil knew the will of the pit and welcomed as modius in his hordes revealing to him the secrets that would make his Empire unordered an unconquerable Dominion even after countless ages the Crimson son serves his creator obediently with his insight into all of Hell's domains allowing him to presage changes in the planar terrain the Genesis of new new diabolical breeds and even more Celtic whims of the infernal realm Mephistopheles is forceful and proud with Charisma oozing from him his skin is the color of Embers over hell scarred planes and he Bears a Triune of elaborate horns and wings like some infernal Archangel he wears fantastic jewels in the Robes of an exotic Prince stripped from The Mortals who couldn't fulfill their Bargains he looks the part of an emissary of some decadent and Darkly fantastic Empire never far from his hand is the adamantine quill vissenir scratched from the pit of nessus by the dragon guard de hak Mephistopheles is an excellent con artist in montebank Charming people with gestures although he rarely speaks harshly he Delights in insulting the dull-witted in cloaks pointed insults behind complementary veils in his dealings with hell's other Arc fiends Mephistopheles plays A sly political gain he counts despater as an ally and he found Barbato's hungarian's words wise he relishes the chance to deride moloch and balzabul but he would never act against any of his fellow Lords his Patty Jabs have earned Swift rebukes from his modius on several occasions and only his eloquence and dramatic apologies save him from more severe punishment as modius values Mephistopheles as a barometer of Hell's mysterious whims and he is the only being in existence who knows when the devil King is lying seeing past is gilded flattery to the cunning advice beneath balzebul lord of the seventh balzabul the lord of the Frozen hellscape of cockatus once a being of radiant form and as modius's favorite is now known as the Lord of the Flies Hell's Angel and the white sun Millennia of disappointment and violence have Twisted him into a creature of absolute arrogance and vicious jealousy while still one of the more powerful beings in hell he Revels in Hollow victories enviously eyeing the gifts of others as he seeks a Birthright that was never his was one of the first beings created by the rising gods and was once held as modius's son and called the Lord of that Which flies he led his modius's Legions and trained newly made generals during the war with the gods as modius's champion won countless victories and he led those who followed in the prince of darkness's path during The Exodus in Hell balzabul expected to rule it as modius's side but the creation of Mephistopheles and the distribution of Hell's rule among the arc fiends infuriated him forgetting himself bowserboel rallied against his maker demanding a greater reward for his service amused as modest asked why he should be granted such things and balzabul recounted the innumerable Feats he had performed in his lord's name unmoved as modi's strip balsabool of his magnificent form and fused him with a million biting flies horrified but cowed belzabul fled back to his newly granted realm of cockatus taking his throne as the lord of flies although asmodeus transformed him Untold Millennia ago balzabul still Mourns the loss of his beauteous form he loves as modius even as he seeks to prove himself as the Lord of Hell's greatest creation as modius knows of his minions conflict and watches bowsable closely but cares not for the art Devil's endlessly imagined Vengeance and attempts to carry his favor rules caucetus not as the realm it is but as the realm he believes it should be his every gesture and edict surrounded by mock ceremony and magniliquence though he holds no schemes to overtly usurp any of the other Arc fiends he grants them no favors and his conflictive Nature has stung them all Malik lord of the sixth Malik the lord of the grimly beautiful Ash cake landscape of malabulge is a fearsome being filled with seething wrath and embodying both absolute discipline and destructive force he is the general of Hell's armies and tirelessly trains his infernal Legions to be the greatest martial force in the Multiverse his reputation is such that few can realistically dispute his claim also known as the Ashen Bull and the god of fires he demands absolute obedience from his followers rewarding the skilled and ruining the weak the general of hell is a creature of the devastating inhuman aspects of War wearing spiked armor encrusted with the blood of countless opponents his helmet is shaped like a powerful bull skull bearing bladed horns and he wears the severed wings of the Angel and mafiel upon his chest his clawed gauntlets exert the strength of a Titan allowing him to heft the thorn Sword ramethane and the wicked battle ax goral Tech he never removes his armor and on the rare occasions when it has become damaged flames and the suggestion of fire charred bones lie beneath molok is counted among the most beautiful of helzark fiends knowing that to falter means Annihilation at the hands of the weak but massive armies of the celestial Realms he drives those under his command in Endless drills and elaborate mock Wars his armies consist of souls Devils other natives of hell and beings courted into his ranks from across the Multiverse he keeps vigorous control over his vast Legions through Legions of subordinates and militaristic Dukes his Mastery of the tyrants Arts allows him to recount the dispositions in particulars of each Army and Commander in his service the god of fires is quick to punish even the slightest hint of insurrection or Disobedience with impossibly cruel and fiery torments garyan lord of the fifth garion lord of the flooded festering and poisonous realm of stigia is a master of lies and a physical force to be reckoned with he may appear to be a guardian or giant of stigia but he is much more dangerous than that he is known as the serpent the source of lies in the wild beast and his existence defiles the Multiverse gerion is the Lord of all heresies and impossible knowledge and he possesses a body capable of crushing Legions and the intelligence to craft Flawless lies garrion's towering figure is a terrifying sight to behold with the bestial and chimeric appearance he has the coils of a tremendous python for legs capable of crushing Legions with their own Venom scales his body splits into three torsos each bearing a deadly infernal weapon an archaic Shield or The Horn of Lies which he uses to spread new heresies throughout the Multiverse gerion's angular snake-like features reptilian eyes and venomous fangs are visible on at least one of his unarmored heads Gary and spends most of his time torturing The Souls of long dead Scholars and pondering the depths of stigious sunken cities he also Delights in crushing the structures of Mossy columns and rib-like buttresses that litter his domain occasionally gerion enters an oracular torpor and surrounds himself with his favorite scribes charging them with recording his every hiss and murmur these trances reveal perfect lies capable of ruining whole lands and blasphemies of devastating potential although he claims these heretical insights as his own gerion believes he may be but a conduit for the infernal Whispers of Hell itself despite his trickery gerion's word is rarely given and it is more Ironclad than most things in the Multiverse He commands Legions of oziliths ordering them to scour Hal in the Mortal plain for the greatest secrets they can find Gary and warps the fulcrum of the most fascinating secrets and releases them back to the proper Minds upon the deafening Whispers of the Horn of Lies he knows that Hidden Truths serve as soil for the most convincing deceit Belial lord of the fourth Belial rules over the burning reaches of flagathon which contains immense minds and is a place of endless toil he is known by several titles including the pale kiss the thorned caress and the father of Belial also has assumed various aliases over the long Millennia of his existence such as belhor juvart and mckembicus which reflect his ability to shift his form Belial is a shape-shifter Seducer Creator and deceiver who uses his skills to spread hell's infernal seed and indulge his unquenchable lust as modius before The Exodus attempted to create the perfect being that could outshine all others in existence he granted his creation complete malleability of form resulting in a terrible and insane creature lost to the ravages of time that was said to have healing flesh golden hair and luminous eruptions in his second attempt asmodius created Belial who possessed the ability to control its shape and a silver tongue to become whatever those around it found most appealing over the ages Belial has taken the the shape of every race in the Multiverse and more subject only to his infernal imagination he takes on aspects he suspects other creatures will find alluring delighting and flustering even the most disciplined Belial has one of the most incredible imaginations in Hell commanding the respect and envy of the infernal Elite his creativity has spawned numerous deadly infernal weapons perverse magic and entire new races of devils despite his Flair for the dramatic Belial actually cares little for what he creates and his attention and interests are as quick to change as his fluid form while serving his Forge master of flagathon Belial has become increasingly intrigued by the method of his own Genesis he seeks to recreate the powerful magic that brought him into being but as modius has rebuffed his inquiries telling him not to concern himself with the Dominion of the Gods undeterred Belial experiments with the creation and modification of mortal life in secret though as modius has long known of his Disobedience and has yet to castigate his servant Mammon lord of the third following The Exodus battles between hell and the celestial Realms resulted in vast and destructive conflicts for Millennia one notable battle was the Battle of the Triune star where sarenray's forces surprised as Modis is Emissary the Fallen Angel Mammon as he tried to turn the newly discovered proteins against his enemies despite mammon's pride and his horde's Fierce fighting the ark fiend was ultimately defeated and left to die amid the vast treasure he brought to coerce the proteins centuries later agents of Mephistopheles recovered mammon's body and lost treasure and returned them to hell and as modius's command mammon's body was laid to rest in vaults beneath the city of dis accompanied by vast riches however a voice from within mammon's tomb stopped The Infernal Lords as they Departed the magical Trove the fury of the Maelstrom and the power of Hell somehow remade Mammon amid his buried treasure he became little more than an animated Spirit collecting The Riches of his tomb and creating from them an infinitely changeable new form intrigued by mammon's Resurrection as Modia supplied him with vast wealth from the depths of nessus and remade his Crypt into a new realm called the hellish Vault of Erebus has adapted to his current state over countless ages and now Delights in his unique form the vaults of Erebus have grown vast over the Millennia with Treasures of every imaginable kind filling his realm and contributing to his body although we can take any form comprising of the domain's treasures at the heart of Erebus hangs the Argent Prince a fiendishly beautiful silvery representation of mammon's once Angelic form during councils with his peers Mammon has a contingent of servants convey an ark filled with specially chosen witches to nessus allowing him to create exceptionally Majestic forms known throughout the plains as the countless the grasping one and the open Palm none could be better suited to the duty of Hell's Treasurer and Vault keeper as Mammon senses extend through every corner of erebus's impossibly vast horde his unique form has made him a mathematical genius allowing him to give an instantly accurate accounting of the wealthy guards items of particular significance and the total value of Hell's riches mortal Scholars are unlikely to discover what that amount may be as Mammon only reveals full reports of his Realms riches to his modius but he might disclose the location of a particular item to anyone who offers him a replacement of Greater beauty or value despater Lord of this dispater also known as the iron Lord the father of this and the first king is a more powerful and influential Arc fiend than his level might suggest as he is the ruler of dis the largest and most impressive City in Hell dispater welcomes all who are lost and Outcast to his perfect City he is highly active and cunning overseeing the administration and expansion of his vast Metropolis entertaining dispossessed souls and Powerful Lords from all the planes and judging all those who would break his infernal law as one of his modius's oldest and most loyal allies despater holds a favorite position in the hierarchy of hell and serves as Lord by creating a city of such dark perfectionist to surpass all Godly imagining dispatcher takes the form of a muscular humanoid with rust-colored skin and wears an elaborate crown of iron horns he carries the eclipsing eye a Sunburst shaped staff of black metal with a blinking Ruby at its top which allows as modius to witness all that dispatcher sees he often wears Treasures from disses vast vaults and regalia that eclipsed the wealth of whole worlds as a Master of Illusions in a being of malleable form he can alter his appearance to intimidate or put at ease those in his presence although despator is calm creative and wise he can also be unforgiving manipulative and arrogant blending the traits of a perfect ruler with those of an arc fiend he values the concepts of rank and station courtly manners and lordly right despite his interest in conduct he often confesses his boredom with hell's formalities to those he seeks to influence this spater stands Out Among the ark fiends by holding respect for the concept of courtly love he has taken three queens during his rule including a fallen angel a demi-goddess and his current wife the beauteous erikura who I discuss later in this video despater rarely leaves his city except when summoned by the Prince of Darkness when he does travel he orders the uprooting of whole Gardens menageries markets and theaters to follow him and the greatest of his armies travel to Garden he never travels to the material plane finding a base and demeaning instead he sends a servant to remember of his court to handle any important business there barbatos lord of the Gateway barbatos is the youngest of the arc fiends and Wiley is only held his position as the Lord of avernus for a relatively short time measured in Millennia his competency and cunning have been proven time and again in defending the gates of avernus however the aloofness of the other Arch fiends towards barbatos is not solely due to his short Reign but rather his fundamental nature he is not a devil at all and his true nature remains one of Hell's greatest Mysteries known only to his modius and perhaps not even by him barbatos appears as an ancient humanoid man wrapped in filthy robes made from the wrinkled skins of long dead Travelers his sleeves are adorned with withered seven-fingered hands each digit bearing an extra joint and gnarled claw though his features are perpetually hidden behind a veil of Gloom three points of bilious yellow light pierced the shadows of his hood forming an inverted pyramid of luminous alien eyes barbatos's most recognizable feature is his beard made of thin greasy tendrils that Cascade like the diseased roots of some Subterranean fungus he carries a tall staff made from you studied with blinking animalistic eyes in one hand and a black orb that reveals the location of crimes and deepest secrets of every soul in avernus and the other barbatos presents an unassuming foil to the proud forms of the other Arc fiends and is deliberate in every motion hunched as if incredible age threatens to crush him barbatos is mysterious and subtle he is neither a direct Ally nor overt enemy to any of the other Arc fiends and appears content with his current Dominion which serves to further unsettle the other Lords of Hell despite their efforts none of their agents have ever uncovered what must be the lord of the gateway's greater ambitions when called upon in council with his murdious and the other tyrants of Hell barbatos arrives in nessus without Pomp and on foot rarely speaking and showing absolute deference to the Prince of Darkness his words are plain and wise often referring to unusual planar conjunctions events of prehistory and other obscure wisdom he has no apparent right to know as the lord of the Gateway barbatos holds the least enviable duties of any of the arch fiends he is charged with a disseminating of the Endless tides of accursed souls to their appropriate damn Nations and guarding Health Shores against incursion in his duties the bearded Lord employs numerous Dukes who defend key domains and oversee the passage of countless souls he ruled with a light hand but Brooks no Disobedience swiftly revealing any plot to oppose him Legend tells of Mortals who venture to avernus to treat with him for the release of a loved one's Soul while the lord of the Gateway consents he never does so without seeking a damning price and rarely is what he releases not returned to him multiple fold as he possesses uncanny knowledge of seemingly all that happens within his realm the queens of the night among his many unpleasant traits as modius is also a misogynistic creature who holds little regard for women but four powerful female Devils have managed to earn his respect and Rule small domains in Hell of their own right these former Angels joined asmodeus during his Exodus becoming the queens of the night among the most perverse souls in the Multiverse they are pitiless and ingenious and denigrating his modius fondly refers to them as His horror Queens of hell our dad Lily known as The End of Innocence manipulates man and Delight in exposing their dull-wittedness she appears as a beautiful young woman with wings made of snake's Tails but she is diabolical in the time when Mortals were still new to the Multiverse our dad Lily was an Angelic servitor of shailin tasked with inspiring artists on behalf of her Patron she became increasingly disgusted with the lust she saw in the eyes of her assignments as her disgust turned to hate she started convincing Mortals to swear their obedience and eventually their souls to her in exchange for what she called a stainless caress wherein she generally gave nothing in return as she never intended to keep any promises eventually Shayla and servitor the Phoenix tale came to our dad Lily and confronted her an understanding that she was not yet strong enough to defeat the servitor the disillusioned Angel responded by gathering her allies and joining his modius's Exodus to hell Dolores also known as our lady of pain is a beauteous horror with iron skin Ebony Eyes and fingers like daggers her once angelic wings bristle with needles and she offers sadistic Comforts to those who abandon their mortal feelings she preaches an iron-clad Gospel of inviolability through indifference and salvation through emotionlessness when she was still a planetar angel Dolores once served as a general under a rastel and was tasked with defending Heaven from a demonic incursion there when the demons took her brother's captive Dolores followed them into the abyss alone once she found the group of demons she thought responsible Dolores chained them up and tortured them for 66 days for her brother's whereabouts that time of torture in the abyss changed her both physically and psychically she realized that she no longer cared about her brothers by the end of it and never learned the truth about their fate and assumes they are still dead to this day isith the iranese queen is the first Fallen Celestial and an angel of hell she is striking but fearsome and consumed by hatred for all things Celestial isaith was once a guardian angel serving a long dead Imperial Lord she found herself perpetually frustrated and held back by the incompetence of her Superior and her less dedicated comrades and ached to become an imperial Lord of Duty and Vengeance so she could command the legions that she wanted isaith became convinced that when her Superior fell she would grow in power and succeed her when her commander made a decision she considered a specially foolish Isaac murdered her and her most trusted advisors before a tribunal of Scholars she plainly stated that she had made the right decision and it was for the greater good in return the horrified jury demanded a terrible sentence but iseth never grasped the full details of her punishment as she fled Heaven eventually making her way into his modius's dark service The Dowager of Illusions was once a handmaiden of farasma I won't cover mahathala in more detail here as I've already discussed during my infernal Gods video which you can find Linked In the description below although I'm covering her here arakira is not technically a queen of the night as she does not actually rule her own domain in hell she is however a female demigoddess who dwells in Hell once a mortal soothsayer and Emissary of forasma she stole the secret to Divinity from her goddess leading to her banishment ericura delivered accurate prophecies to devils and became one of dispatcher's closest advisors and diviners their casual romance eventually led to despater marrying arakira making her the queen of disc for half of the Year arakira lives in the iron sector her husband's Palace during the other half she lives in ellucius her own Paris within this is iron District in contrast to the iron fire and stone that dominates most of this ellucius is filled with Lush vegetation it is also home to a trio of norns Felixia Rowan and celiast who serve her as her advisors and handmaidens in addition to her infernal pets arakira is often worshiped for her ability to thrive in a hostile environment and among dangerous beings something which she instructs her devotees to follow her worship is virtually unknown on galarian and is for obvious reasons strongly tied to the veneration of despator among those few that do worship her are soothsayers as well as predominantly non-evil Rangers who often feel nothing but disgust at hell's evil but admire erikura for employing her subtlety and command over nature to become an important figure in an otherwise dangerous environment The Infernal Dukes occasionally emits the infinite diabolical hordes of Hell their emerge malevolent Devils that embody various facets of Hell's nature such as forced corruption discipline misery and countless other vices these fiends Ascend to the ranks of Greater Devils after serving dutifully for Millennia catching the attention of the Ark devils and being granted a rare promotion in form and Status under the tutelage of these Supreme Devils these Champions are transformed into new and distinct beings imbued with powers and Authority surpassing even greater Devils from that point onwards they become the elite nobility of devil kind known as The Infernal Dukes the most prominent of the Dukes are as follows is the pack Lord who leads Hunters through the night
