Congratulations!

Congratulations, denizen of Hell! Whether you be a damned soul from that poor rock called Earth, or a demon born to the world of Hell, you have been selected by the Holy Afterlife Relocation Protocol (HARP), led by none other than the archangel Gabriel, to be permitted to enter Heaven!

At your earliest convenience (which will be soon, as I, Gabriel, have instructed that no demon shall hinder you until you get to Circle 9-4) you shall board a special train of the Virgil Epxress to the Judecca sector of the NInth Circle, aka Area 9-4 to whichever demons are reading this.

There, you will be provided with basic starting equipment. Armor, weapons, food, healing salves, and the like. All appropriate to the era you died in, but worry not: If you were born before modern firearms, your bows and black powder weapons will be blessed (or cursed) to get them up to a respectable level of firepower! Now, why do you need weapons, you wonder? Well for the Grand Test of course! HARP isn't 100% reliable and we can't let just anyone get into Heaven, so we decided to have you make your way up through the Circles of Hell to get to the Gates of Tartarus.

There will be challenges, of course. Besides the terrain (which some of you may have had to face for anywhere from months to millenia), all the demons responsible for torturing and policing will be trying to stop you - as is their task in the Grand Test - along with, of course, the guard demons and the Chief Demons of their respective circle: Pythius for the Eighth, Berith for the Seventh, Baal for the sixth, Moloch the fifth, Mammon the fourth, Beelzebub the third, and Lilith as the Chief Demon of both the first and second Circles, after they were merged in the 14th Century and the inhabitants of Limbo moved to a new section of Mount Purgatory. Of course whether you fight them is up to you. All that matters is that you get to the Gates without being injured enough to 'die' if you were human and had the same equipment.

But rest assured, that is unlikely to happen. If HARP selected you, then I'm sure you'll make it!

Regards...

Music always sets the scene.

Ah, yer one of those, eh? Got the letter from Gabriel tellin' ya ye got an opportunity to get to Heaven, demon or soul, and all that? Yeeeaaah, that's all bollocks. Truth is, it's but a chance. A bloody slim chance, at that. Y'see, Gabriel really, truthfully, soulfully hates yer guts, and would greatly appreciate ye staying in Hell with all the other filthy mortals and sinners from yer own dimension. As for demons, well, he doesn't even bother to hide the fact that he hates you lot, so that should come as no surprise.

And that's not all. He wasn't kiddin' about saying all the demons responsible for torture and policing the world that is Hell will be after you - he ruddy well meant each and every single one. And the Chief Demons. And, hoh my are they going to be tough to beat. Consider yourself lucky you're starting out in the Ninth Circle, because Satan can't do much when he's waist-deep in magical ice that's a thousand times stronger than steel. At the most you'll probably have to deal with one of the giants... maybe... depends on their mood.

Some more bad news for you demons, I'm afraid: That equipment you'll be getting will limit your strength, no matter what Area you come from. You won't be as weak as a damned soul, but you won't be much stronger - if at all.

Oh, who am I? I'm Virgil. I run the trains here in Hell. Now stop asking questions and get on the bloody train! Just be sure not to slip in it.

Circles of Hell

This is a short guide to the circles of hell, adapted from a geographical guide by the Officina libraria editoria Vaticana in 2009.

As you are likely well aware, there are precisely 9 circles of Hell, in order: Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Anger, Heresy, Violence, Fraud, and Treachery. Of these, the final three are divided into further sections of three, ten, and four, respectively. It is advised you memorize all of them if you wish to go diving into Hell, and to know the terrain and inhabitants.

Population: 1 (Lilith)
Geography: The first circle is a perfectly circular plain of pure carbon of unknown thickness with regular, infinitesimally small (but visible, glowing faintly red) grooves that create a grid of rectangles. What is under these boxes is, at this time, unknown. However, exorcists that have 'dove' into this Circle since its transformation to its current state in 1766 A.D. report hearing the sound of explosions in the distance. That distance has always been determined to be just beyond visual range, regardless of size or volume of the explosion. There are numerous large portals that lead to the second circle spaced 6.66 kilometers apart from each other in four directions parallel to the rectangular grid. The Circle's radius is unchanged from prior to 1766 A.D, and remains constant at 22178 kilometers. In the exact center is Lilith's fortress, which features a single cable elevator that extends from its base in the fortress's courtyard to the Gate of Tartarus directly above it, which leads to Paradise and enables ascended demons and souls to circumvent Purgatory entirely. While no exorcist has ever seen the Gate open, it is believed that the elevator passes through it and continues up to the Gates of Saint Peter at the base of Paradise.
Weather: Eternally overcast and night. The only illumination is the grooves and, depending on the point of entry, the fortress.

Population: 66.6 billion
Geography: Realistically speaking, there is no geography anymore. Only city. And densely packed city, too. The Second Circle is constructed much like a mixture of Hong Kong, Tokyo, New York City, London and Lagos. With predictably nightmarish city planning, just to add insult to injury. The tallest buildings reach all the way to the 'ceiling' of the Second Circle, which is technically the bottom of the First Circle.
Weather: Wellington-like, only more so. The city has some extremely messed up aerodynamics, thus creating a constant wind of at the least 40 kilometers per hour.

(by Wolfenium)
Population: TBD
Geography: Don't let this cheery candy-land facade fool you! The Third Circle of Hell is a glutton's worst nightmare and more! A military-style boot camp of the highest USMC standards, Beelzebub runs his little kingdom exactly the way it should, with a whole lot of pain, tears and sweat! Tortured souls are put through the rigours of day-in-day out exercise and foot drills with nothing but icky healthy surprise meat and tacky Vietnam-era military dress and equipment for eternity and back! Candy demons with a mouth as sweet as a used car exhaust tube would regularly grind down their pride with language colourful enough to paint Hitler's art collection! And God help you if you're caught eating the infrastructure, because if they see anything that looks like a bite-sized crater on the floor, you can expect a gauntlet so hellish it'll make the top-side Spec-Ops training look like a vacation through Bangkok! And when you see old Gunny Beel walking around, you best suck it up, 'cos it's Hell Week, every week!
Weather: Alternates between burning sun and stormy rain.

(by NatSpi)
Population: TBD
Geography: The fourth circle is Hell's financial district, and the horizon is dominated by skyscrapers in every direction. Its infrastructure is much more modern than that of most of the circles', and the roads are paved with gold. Lining the major streets are trees that grow human currency from all countries and eras, and there are moats of molten gold (into which any soul who has been found to steal from Mammon is immersed for eternity) that crisscross the circle used for transportation. The skyscrapers are, for the most part, divided into three functions: demons fulfil two of these, working for what is essentially Hell's Ministry of Finance and for the bank; while damned souls fulfil the third function (which was devised solely as a punishment and does absolutely nothing productive) of eternally minting gold coins, which are promptly melted as soon as they are minted. At the centre of the circle, there is a skyscraper 666 storeys high, in which Mammon resides and works.
Weather: The temperature is always at least 40°C (104°F), and conditions alternate between glaringly bright sun and rain made of molten gold.

(by NatSpi)
Population: TBD
Geography: The fifth circle is a treacherous landscape dominated by a wide, swampy river that flows sluggishly round the region. Despite the abundance of vegetation, many of the plants are either poisonous or carnivorous, and are thus unsafe to do anything with; as such, the fifth circle is one of the poorer regions of Hell, and those who live in it (human souls and demons alike) are more prone to fighting over resources. While many of the fifth's demons are amphibious, being well-suited to living in a marsh, those lacking such adaptations live in floating boat villages; and most tortured souls are destined to spend their afterlives in the muddy water, in a perpetual state of half-drowning.
Weather: Due to the tree canopy, the sun shines in few places. The temperature varies between being hotter and colder, but is never at a temperature extreme. It does, occasionally, rain.

Population: 17,961,108,616
Geography: Dis is a roughly ring-shaped city entirely surrounded by the Fifth Circle, with the exception of its financial district (the Fourth Circle) which is connected to Dis by a vast network of subway trains (inaccessible to souls of course.) Dis is topographically bowl-like, about the size and shape of an inverted Olympus Mons, with the caldera leading to the four circles below. There is a spectacular waterfall on the eastern side that connects the Styx surrounding it to the brutally hot Phlegethon that flows through the Seventh circle and the brutally cold Cocytus that flows through the Eighth and Ninth Circles. Unlike the more modern and post-modern financial district, most of Dis' architecture is very old and intimidating - Gothic, neo gothic and art deco structures abound. These structures are often inexplicably tall for what they are apparently made of - Cathedral-like apartment complexes stretch miles into the air.

Oh, you want to know where the damned souls are? They live in the sewers when and if they are allowed out of their apartment complexes, which can be identified by their ugly brutalist architecture, their black paint (most buildings in Dis are red), and the enormous heat emanating from them due to their interiors being constantly on fire. The sewers aren't much better as the sewer water is painfully acidic.
Weather: Varies, but usually very hot - A tropical monsoon climate dominates the city, and it is still very hot despite a series of pipes leading down to the Ninth Circle and back providing cooling. Rain is either off or on here - Half of the year it is extremely dry, and the other half, one might think someone had melted Cocytus and was dumping it over the city.

Population: ~90 million (excludes the tormented souls)
Geography:The Seventh Circle can be smoothly divided into four sections:
Outer Ring: The outer ring contains the valleys of the Phlegethon River and the river itself. Extremely hot, extremely humid, and easily the poorest section. Has the best cooking, and grows the best peppers in Hell. Quite odd that any plant life survives at all when the Phlegethon flows both acidic and basic (and the shift between the two results in violent explosions of steam), but that's Hell. Cities are few and far between, and are only lightly industrialized. Many of the tortured souls are forced to work on the pepper (or other plant) plantations, or otherwise float in the Phlegethon and risk getting run over by steamboats. Repeatedly. Some have screw propellers just to cause extra pain.
Central Ring: The central ring, in stark contrast to the outer ring, is nearly as cold as the Ninth Circle, but heavily forested with evergreen trees and shrubs. Snow falls continuously here, and the climate is similar to Russia in winter, especially Siberia. Cities are huge and industrial, with smoke billowing out of the massive factories that cover them. Souls are regularly stuffed feet first into the ground and then have trees grow around them, surrounding and crushing them. And then harpies fly in and gnaw on their exposed flesh. Or they run about and are chased by hellhounds. Contained within the central ring are also enormous artillery cannons that rain burning shrapnel on the Inner Ring constantly.
Inner Ring: The inner ring is desert. All of it. From the sandy desert of Namibia, to the rocky desert of western Texas. It never rains; what 'rain' comes from the cannons in the central ring. Souls here are weighted down on the ground, in some cases they are so heavy that the souls must crawl on all fours or slither along like serpents. Some end up banding together in groups to make it easier to move about. Which is very good because the demons of the Inner Ring drive about in technicals halftracks, and tanks, regularly shooting at the tortured souls for no reason whatsoever. This section is the most developed of the original three rings, with Hell's primary technology sector and some of the best roads in Hell.
Central Hub: The central hub floats over the massive hole that leads to the Eighth Circle via an almost vertical cliff face. Architecturally it is a mix of Hitler's plan for the new Berlin (with a supersized Volkshalle in the exact center), Rome's historical sector, and Ancient Athens at its peak (but without the gaudy coloring). It is run much like Dis is, but without a single soul in sight, and all the demons wear the fashion of Germany in the late 30's, with the police and government officials wearing exactly what you would expect. Weather is shockingly pleasant for Hell, with warm summers and cool winters, with occasional snow. Where are the souls, you ask? What do you think is keeping the city from falling? Souls here are used as living cables to hold the entire structure up.

Population: 2.5 billion
Geography: There are only two ways to get in and out of the Eighth and Ninth Circles. The first is to take the Virgil Express, which goes straight up or straight down the vertical cliff in the Seventh Circle that leads to the Eighth, either direction traveled at terrifying speeds. The other is to ride Geyron's back down into the Eighth, and fly down into it at equally terrifying speeds.

The Malebolge is, surprisingly, fairly straightforward in geography - Ten concentric circular valleys lined by nine concentric circular mountain ranges, which the Virgil Express travels over, not through, and the Cocytus river travels through, not over. The mountains are used largely to grow food for Hell, which is what the Eighth Circle grows the most of: Cocytus dumps most of its silt here before freezing in the Ninth Circle.
First Bolgia: This Bolgia's terrain is a lot like the Stone Forest of Madagascar, though it is actually possible to get from any one part to any other. And there are cities, resting on the enormous spiky rocks. That souls can't get to. The rocks are also covered in slimy poison. Because why the hell not?
Second Bolgia: Hell's largest sewage treatment facility is located here. A distributary of the Cocytus flows into and through this Bolgia, unfortunately it turns out said distributary picked up the smell. And pollution. And lots of other unsavory, disgusting things since the demons take great joy in making miserable the afterlives of the souls forced here by their flattery.
Third Bolgia: Much of the debris from the formation of Hell landed here, forming millions of deep holes in the ground, superheated by the fifth Bolgia that is roughly at the same level as the bottom of the holes. Some contain souls, some contain geysers, some contain geothermal generators. The demon population finds this place very touristy and is generally full of both annoying tourists and the angry demons who live here.
Fourth Bolgia: Here, souls have their head put on backwards. Which is just fine because the numerous boulders in the Fourth Bolgia are made of metal and polished to a mirror shine. There are also very good, very smoothly paved, highways crossing the Fourth Bolgia, along with numerous racetracks and the second-largest road course in the afterlife. It's very easy for souls to wander in and get run over.
Fifth Bolgia: Most of Hell's asphalt comes from the sea of pitch and tar that is the Fifth Bolgia. Few demons live here because it is incredibly hot, temperatures regularly exceed 60 C in all areas, and in some areas gets well over 110 C. Good thing demons have a tremendously high tolerance for heat. What demons do live here live on floating cities, held aloft by their giant sails and the powerful updrafts.
Sixth Bolgia: By some difficult-to-explain trick of afterlife physics, the gravity here is almost six times what it is in any other part of Hell. Other than that, it's pretty normal. And flat. Lots and lots and lots of farmland in this Bolgia. Oh, did I mention that the gravity only affects souls? Quirky afterlife physics. Most of the demon population lives here.
Seventh Bolgia: This bolgia is hot and arid, with a few wide rivers full of extremely edible fish. Unfortunately those rivers are usually surrounded by extremely large wingless dragons. These dragons seem aware of their winglessness. And they are pissed about it, and will attack anything they see that looks remotely like a soul for no other reason than it dared to be in its presence. Including vaguely humanoid rocks.
Eighth Bolgia: Fire, mostly. The stereotypical image of Hell (a lake of fire, where everything is on fire) is mostly based on this Bolgia. The 'water' here is a liquid chemical that reacts violently with air.
Ninth Bolgia: This Bolgia features very rough terrain, with every square centimeter covered with sharp rocks and outcroppings that cut into one's feet. Puncture resitant boots are a must here for any demon. As per the trend for this Circle, it is very hot and dry, climatically similar to the Sinai Peninsula.
Tenth Bolgia: This Bolgia is not lined by a mountain range on the inside at all. Instead it just continuously slopes further down until it becomes vertical again, leading into the Ninth Circle. It is actually rather cold in this Bolgia, and a continuous, soft snow of greenish-black powder rains down from the sky. Don't eat it unless you want to get all kinds of lovely diseases, such as leprosy, salmonella, tuberculosis, smallpox, mad snail disease, you name it. No demons live here.
Weather: Varies

Population: Classified
Geography: Cocytus is fucking huge. Cocytus is fucking old, geologically the oldest part of Hell. It is also the most sparsely populated - the demons that live here work exclusively for Hell's government and secret police. And I do mean cold - At the very edge of the Circle, where the cliffs of the Tenth Bolgia level out into the jagged mountains at the edge of Cocytus (and where the enormous Great Vile Falls are located), the temperature peaks at 2 degrees Celsius. And that's as warm as it gets for the entire Circle. The further in one goes (and the closer to Satan), the colder it gets. By 10 kilometers away from the center it becomes too cold for all but the yuki-onna that inhabit this circle to survive (well under -100 C), and by 5 kilometers in, even helium condenses. Satan himself is encased in a layer of frozen helium, and directly beneath him is the only area in the afterlife at absolute zero. Souls here are buried in varying amounts of ice. The souls beneath the ice here are contained in smooth black cylinders, not unlike the photon torpedoes in the original Star Trek, but completely black. Here their minds are subjected to the worst psychological torture possible. They are also the only souls ineligible by default for the Great Trial.
Weather: None.

Demonology

This is a short guide to demons encountered in Hell, adapted from an exorcist's training manual published by the Officina libraria editoria Vaticana in 1997.

"As humans live, die, and travel on to the afterlife, so too do angels and demons (of calibers lower than the Princes (or princesses) of Paradise and the Inferno, respectively) travel to their own afterlife. However, this afterlife is beyond any attempt at mortal comprehension, and neither angels nor demons can reach it by death alone. In the case of demons, it is by tormenting the souls of the damned that they gain enough energy to pass on to the afterlife: The Princes of the Inferno use the energy of this suffering to permit their demons to pass into the afterlife.thanks G-Tech

Basic Demon:
Form: link
Height: 200-230 cm for males, 180-210 cm for females
Weight: 120-160 kg for males, 115-150 kg for females
Found in: Circles 3-9
Roles: All feasible roles
Weaknesses: Iron, holy water, crucifixes, salt, holy fire
Servant species to: None specifically, technically Satan
Physical Description: The basic demon is a big, ugly motherfucker. Both males and females have similar builds to the typical fantasy barbarian, or a professional American handspheroid player. They're strong, but they're not quite as smart as most humans. They make up for it with surprisingly good common sense. They don't really like bright light much. Considering Hell is overall darker than Heaven, and all angels give off a faint (basic angel) to magnesium-bright (seraphim) glow, there's probably a good reason for this.

Name: Blaspheming Mantis (by NatSpi)
Form: Image
Length: 5-20 cm (depending on age)
Weight: Negligible.
Found in: Circles 2-8 (most common in Circles 5-8)
Roles: None.
Weaknesses: Iron, holy water, crucifixes, salt, holy fire, extreme temperatures
Servant species to: None.
Physical Description: Blaspheming mantes are a common type of demonic insect, with variable colouring. Their bites are immensely painful, but cause no longterm damage. The females have been known to lay eggs on demons and humans alike, and if the eggs hatch without having been removed the larvae will quickly begin eating their host. They have little or no intelligence, and are generally treated as pests. However, they are also a popular snack food (generally eaten either raw, deep-fried, or candied), and eating them has an effect comparable to that of caffeine. A concentrated dose of blaspheming mantis venom consumed orally can boost strength, speed, and stamina for short periods of time (e.g. a shot glass of it will generally last about 10 minutes).

Name: Candy Soldiers (by Wolfy)
Form: This, in typical 60s/70s USMC uniforms
Height: Varies
Weight: Varies
Found in: Circle 3
Roles: Read the damn title, recruit!
Weaknesses: Holy baking temperatures, grade II holy water, salt
Servant species to: Beelzebub
Physical Description: Don't let their tasty exterior give you any funny ideas; these candies bite! Besides their vibrant vocabulary designed to shred a fatty's self-asteem, these sugar tarts know CQC and firearms training from the Bronze Age all the way to today's Spec Ops units! That said, they are literally sweet on the taste buds, but don't even hope you can mutiny against them!

Name: Changelings
Form: Link
Height: Varies
Weight: Varies
Found in: Circles 2, 5, 7-8
Roles: All feasible roles
Weaknesses: Salt, grade II holy water, crygoenic material
Servant species to: Pythius
Physical Description: They're made of slime! They come in every color of the rainbow! They're non-toxic, of human intelligence, and can punch like a tsunami! Literally! They, like the yuki-onna, are believed to have evolved from succubi, and like succubi can obtain sustenance through intercourse, though it is by no means necessary.

Name: Hellhounds (by Malshan)
Form: Link1 Link2
Height: Anywhere from 25cm at the shoulder to 150m at the shoulder.
Weight: Varies; 25kg through several thousand.
Found in: Circles 4-9
Roles: Hunters, scouts, messengers, beasts in gladiatorial events, etc.
Weaknesses: Holy fire, holy water, iron, crucifixes, etc.
Servant species to: Different packs serve different masters, all report to Satan.
Physical Description: Hellhounds vary in size and shape, depending on the viewer's perception. Idealized by Satan as the perfect canine nightmare, the hellhound's physical form shifts to match and then exceed whatever canine form that the viewer finds terrifying.
(For example, someone who had a favorite golden retriever might see that same GR twisted into a nightmarish version of itself, etc.)

Name: Imp (by NatSpi)
Form: Basically this, but usually quite scrawny.
Height: 10-50 cm
Weight: 0.05-0.5 kg
Wingspan: 10-65 cm
Found in: Circles 4-9
Roles: TBD
Weaknesses: Iron, holy water, crucifixes, salt, holy fire, bright light, verbena oil
Servant species to: None specifically, technically Satan.
Physical Description: Imps are diminutive creatures, and their colouring generally ranges between dark red, greyish-green, and slate grey. Their mouths are filled with hundreds of tiny, razor-sharp teeth that can deliver a venomous bite, which will kill an average human within an hour and paralyze most lower- to mid-tier demons for about 40-80 minutes (respectively). That said, there can be found an easy antidote in boiling the leaves or root of the Devil's bit plant (which grows in many of Hell's circles) in wine and drinking it. They tend to be physically weak -- though the larger ones can often lift up to 10 kg of weight, which nevertheless slows them down -- and rather unintelligent, though they are capable of speech (in annoyingly shrill voices) and often enjoy playing pranks.

Name: Kappa (by NatSpi)
Form: Male, Female
Height: 160-200 cm for males, 180-210 cm for females
Weight: 110-150 kg for males, 120-160 kg for females
Found in: Circle 5 primarily, some large bodies of water in other circles
Roles: All feasible roles
Weaknesses: Grade II holy water, salt, holy fire, the dishes on top of their heads being emptied of water, mandrake (its scream and its juice)
Servant species to: Moloch
Physical Description: Kappas are large, remarkably strong demons well-suited to life in the fifth circle's swampy climate. They are amphibious, and generally have a dark blue or green colouring. The females are primarily distinguished from the males by having longer necks that protrude forward, but there are also a few other distinguishing features that will not be discussed in detail. It is common for a kappa to be at least partially covered by algae and other weeds. They are also capable of climbing trees with surprising speed and agility. Kappas have extremely strong jaws, being able to crush a human's skull in their mouths with little effort (in fact, gnawing on damned souls' heads is a common pastime of theirs). They are slightly less intelligent than most humans, and tend to be very irritable.

Name: Mandrake (by NatSpi)
Other Names: Mandragora, Satan's apple
Form: Image
Height: 10-80 cm (excluding root), 30-100 cm (root only)
Found in: Circles 2, 4-8
Weaknesses: Holy water, fire, vinegar
Servant species to: None
Physical Description: Mandrakes are notable in that their roots look very human (though much smaller and appearing obviously plant-like), and they seem to have a degree of sentience (though their level of intelligence is unknown). When pulled up by the roots, it gives off a scream that kills (if human or kappa) or incapacitates (if otherwise) all who hear it (though it does not seem to have any effect whatsoever on the chief demons except for Moloch). Any part of the plant eaten in large amounts will kill all but the strongest demons, but small amounts can be consumed as a sedative and painkiller while moderate amounts can be consumed as a hallucinogenic.

Name: Paimon (by NatSpi)
Name: Paimon
Other Names: The Inquisitor, Seth, Loki, Reynard, Coyote, Aunt Nancy, countless others
Role: Their job is basically to ensure the stability of Hell and to investigate any major threats (hence the title "Inquisitor").
Physical Appearance: Being a shapeshifter, they can take on many shapes.
Height: Varies
Weight: Varies
Weaknesses: Holy fire (>1500 K), grade IV holy water, wrought iron. They cannot take on a form identical to another being or object, so that if they try to imitate someone or something in particular, there will always be at least one flaw; and they may accidentally change shape according to their emotions.
Servant to: Technically, they answer to Satan, but they've been known to show allegiance to other Princes as well when it suits them.
Personality: Paimon is, notably, very eccentric. Feared by most and trusted by few, they are sometimes very reserved, and at other times show outbursts of emotion. They have been known to take on the forms of men, women, adults, children, demons, humans, animals, and even plants; and while they certainly use this to their advantage in their work, oftentimes they change their shape simply because they feel like it. They are fond of equivocating, and sometimes take pleasure in manipulating others. They love challenges, puzzles, and riddles, but hate failure.

Name: Spartoi
Form: Without gas mask
Height: 160-200 cm
Weight: 55-115 kg
Found in: Circle 7
Roles: Soldiers, police, interrogators
Weaknesses: Iron, grade II holy water, most sedatives (Especially THC and barbituates)
Servant species to: Berith
Physical description: What, did you expect Hell without Nazis? Too bad! These faceless monstrosities have razor-sharp teeth and an acidic saliva that may or may not be responsible for their face looking like it had melted off. They have no eyes, but that doesn't seem to harm their aim with any and every firearm designed by man - especially by German men these days. They have no eyes. Despite their skin being grey-black and leathery, they aren't actually zombies: These bastards are about half as strong as yaxxae and only succubi are smarter. They have no goddamn eyes.

Name: Succubi
Form: Basically this, but the sclera are black and the irises are yellow. Hair can be any color but is most often black. One horn is equally as common as two horns, there appears to be no biological difference between one-horned and two-horned succubi.
Height: 140-190 cm
Weight: 35-95 kg
Found in: Circles 2, 4, 6
Roles: All feasible roles
Weaknesses: Holy fire (>1000 K), camphor, grade II holy water, meteorite iron, EMPs
Servant species to: Lilith
Physical Description: Do not let their girlish figure and apparent lack of toning fool you - It will probably take a water tender to provide enough holy water to weaken a succubus enough to exorcise them, and even that's risky due to their being strong enough to throw said water tanker. Their mouths (and presumably their muscles) are a bluish-black in color, with tongues roughly 35 cm in length. They have glands in their mouths that secrete a venom that simultaneously paralyzes the area on contact and increases sensitivity; they are clearly immune to it so turning it against them is ill-advised. Equal in intelligence to humans, but most have a way with words comparable to a cult leader.

Name: Yaxxas
Form: link
Height: 220-250 for both genders
Weight: 140-460 kg for both genders
Found in: Circles 5-7
Roles: Enforcers, police, 'persuaders', torturers
Weaknesses: Iron, grade V holy water, crucifixes, holy fire (>600 K), copper, lead
Servant species to: Baal
Physical description: Anthro crocodiles. Built like tanks, mean as hell, about as intelligent as humans but not as intelligent as succubi. Their jaws can clamp down with forty metric tons per square centimeter, so it's best to avoid that area if you like having that part of your body attached to the rest. Much like kappa, they are amphibious, and powerful (if lazy) swimmers. However their weight makes their climbing attempts less successful. Despite their reputation they can actually be quite diplomatic, they simply don't often see a good reason to be.

Name: Yuki-Onna
Form: Link
Height: 160-190 cm
Weight: 50-70 kg
Found in: 9
Roles: Government work
Weaknesses: Grade I holy water, pyrophoric material, fluorine, FOOF
Servant species to: Satan
Physical Description: Yuki-onna have long, bluish-black hair, pale, bluish-white skin, and extremely light builds. Do not mistake this for weakness, however, as they are incredibly powerful (on par with succubi) when provoked, and the fastest of all demon species. If provoked, as they are the least temperamental of demons, though the most difficult to exorcise. Even if they almost never possess humans. They can emit an icy wind from their lungs, capable of cooling nitrogen into a liquid as it is in the air. They can also turn invisible, control snowstorms, and phase through ice.

Chief Demons of Hell

This is a short guide to the princes of hell, adapted from a training manual for Section XIII, the elite exorcism corps of the Vatican, published by the Officina libraria editoria Vaticana in 2000.

Contained herein are the nine Princes of the Inferno, the sins they represent, and what weaknesses (if any) have been discovered for them. [...] All of the Princes, regardless of which one is stronger or weaker than the other, require the entire volume of the Sea of Galilee - 4 cubic kilometers - to exorcise by holy water purification alone. No other water will do, and afterwards the lake will have to be repurified and reblessed continuously over a period of three days in order to maintain its strength. All Princes have a weakness to chemically pure iron with less than 1 part per billion impurities, holy fires of temperatures greater than 3,000 K and Nails of the Cross. Their servant species also generally shares their individual weaknesses.

[...]Also, for further information are the more important named demons.

Name: Lilith
Other Names: The Dark Mistress, Prince of Pleasure, the Cancer of Souls, the Four Eyes of Lust
Sin Repersented: Lust
Physical Appearance: Form
Height: 180 cm
Weight: ??? kg
Weaknesses: EMPs
Servant species: Succubi, Incubi
Personality: Like the perfect dominatrix. Exudes power, dominance, and pure, unfiltered lust and sadism from every atom of her being. She will find each and every crack in your psychological armor and attack them with terrifying precision, all while making you feel pleasure beyond imagination. She will annihilate you in the most beautiful way possible, leaving your soul nothing but a bleeding wreck, and when she is done you will know why storms are named after people.

Name: Beelzebub
Other Names: Sir
Sin Repersented: Gluttony
Physical Appearance: This + This (Dress)
Height: 200+ cm
Weight: ??? kg
Weaknesses: ???
Servant species: Candy Soldiers
Personality: Take a guess.

(by NatSpi)
Name: Mammon
Other Names: The CEO, the Prince of Finance
Sin Repersented: Greed
Physical Appearance: Pictured at centre. He wears a gold ring around his left ring finger.
Height: 190 cm
Weight: ??? kg
Weaknesses: ???
Servant species: TBD
Personality: Mammon manages his kingdom with a fair and steady hand, and he has a mind for finance. He does not overspend, but he is not frugal, and he has consistently managed Hell's economy without issue for millennia. That said, he is very possessive, and will not give up any assets he has unless he perceives that he is getting the better end of the deal. Quite simply, if he cannot profit from doing something, he will not do it. This means, however, that he is also very protective of everything (and everyone) that belongs to him, and thus is relatively benevolent towards those who work for him.

(by NatSpi)
Name: Moloch
Other Names: The Claw of Wrath
Sin Repersented: Anger
Physical Appearance: Image
Height: 180 cm
Weight: ??? kg
Weaknesses: Mandrake (its scream and its juice)
Servant species: Kappas
Personality: Moloch is, contrary to what one might assume, quite calm -- until provoked, that is. It is rumoured that he is "working on his anger management issues", and attempts to curb his violent outbursts, but this remains unconfirmed. It is known with certainty, however, that once he has been angered -- and it apparently requires little to do so -- he goes on a destructive rampage: his shouts of rage fill the air; his massive claws shred trees, lesser demons, and souls of the damned alike; the very skies of the fifth circle take on a red hue. The plants of the fifth circle have also been known to become agitated when he is angry, and are far more likely to attack passersby than they usually are; as such, the circle's entrances and exits are closed as quickly as possible upon Moloch becoming angry.

Name: Baal
Other Names: Hadad, Astartes, The Boss, Mister Baal, Sir
Sin Represented: Heresy
Physical Appearance: ayy
Height: 220 cm
Weight: 240 kg
Weaknesses: Blood
Servant species: Yaxaas
Personality: One of the more merciless Princes, Baal is self-assured, confident (perhaps a bit too much for his own good, though Lilith and Beelzebub are quick to put him in his place), and immensely powerful - If power were the only factor, he'd be above Mammon, but his tendency to anger the other Princes (and the Antichrist, which is impressive to say the least) with his insults keeps him in the sixth circle, and furthermore as the leader of the sixth circle's powerful organized crime world.

Name: Berith
Other Names: Baalberith, Ares, Ma'am, The Unrelenting Force
Sin Represented: Violence
Physical Appearance: ho boy
Height: 193 cm
Weight: 93 kg
Weaknesses: Lightning, dragon blood, dragon bones - Be advised, human blood only makes her stronger.
Servant species: Spartoi
Personality: Brutal but cunning, or cunning but brutal, depending on who you ask. But unlike Mork and Ork, she is actually very smart, and a brilliant tactician and strategist. There's a damn good reason she's in charge of Hell's special forces. While she's not particularly super-strong (only as strong as Beelzebub), she is very fast and quite nimble. Oh, and she can sprout jaws literally anywhere. She has a fascination with the Nazis and fascism in general, though she hates the leaders of the two largest fascist movements - Germany's and Italy's - based solely on their incompetence - to her, of course. She could easily move up a few circles if it wasn't for her addiction to stimulants. A total adrenaline junkie, and rumored to be dating the Antichrist.

She is also the only other female Prince, besides Lilith.

Name: Pythius
Other Names: Lugh, Mercury, Anansi
Sin Repersented: Fraud
Physical Appearance: Link
Height: As is necessary
Weight: As is necessary
Weaknesses: Liquid nitrogen, liquid helium, dry ice, anything extremely cold
Servant species: Changelings
Personality: He made good friends with the paimon, that's for sure. Flaky, flippant, and generally a loose cannon, Pythius is the most comedic of the Princes, and the only one on really good terms with any of the Princes of Virtue. Perhaps because he's the only good-natured one that isn't a threat to them. Who knows. Or maybe because whenever he does go there, he's always half as drunk as Caleb. He would be as drunk as Caleb, but no demon liver could survive that.

Name: Satan
Other Names: Abbadon, Iblis, Mephistopheles, Shaitan
Sin Repersented: Treachery
Physical Appearance: Link
Height: As is necessary
Weight: As is necessary
Weaknesses: Classified
Servant species: All demons
Personality: The original bad motherfucker. If Samuel L. Jackson was evil he would be Satan.

(by NatSpi)
Name: Asmodai
Other Names: Asmodeus, Lord of Rot, the Decayer
Role: He's in charge of all of the fifth circle's day-to-day affairs, including facilitation of passage in and out.
Physical Appearance: Image
Height: 240 cm
Weight: >300 kg
Weaknesses: Holy fire (>2000 K), grade V holy water, cold iron (<150 K)
Servant to: Moloch
Personality: Asmodai is known to be very intelligent and self-important, and enjoys asserting his authority over others. When not tending to his duties as the fifth circle's manager, he passes the time by tormenting the circle's souls. He also organises gladiatorial games wherein damned souls are forced to fight each other for his and the other demons' entertainment.

(by NatSpi)
Name: Amaimon
Other Names: The Blue Demon, the Deadly Wind, Nergal
Role: Amaimon's very existence is denied by Hell's officials. However, he is rumoured to be the head of SIN (Secret Intelligence Network; Hell's secret police, which itself does not officially exist).
Physical Appearance: There are few reliable sightings of Amaimon, but most who have seen him describe him as a young boy with blue hair, like so.
Height: 140 cm
Weight: ??? kg
Weaknesses: ???
Servant to: Unknown; probably falls under Satan's authority
Personality: Very little of Amaimon is known with any certainty, but he is thought to be very reclusive, preferring not to deal with other demons unless it is necessary.

Hello men, women, and underageb& of NationStates! This is my latest RP, Stairway to Heaven! As you can probably guess, it's about souls (and maybe a demon or two) getting out of Hell. Of course, that will be no easy task when one literally has to fight against Hell to get out! You will be able to create a character (as a soul) from any time period you so desire, from the dawn of Homo sapiens sapiens to the present day, though you will be limited to equipment from that era. Not that it'll be much of a downside, as if the weapons from your era are primitive, they'll be enchanted to bring them up to par. One other thing - Souls get to choose what age they appear as when they go to the afterlife, whether in Heaven, Purgatory or Hell. So they at least get that freedom.

You may also wonder if religion has any part in one's entry to Hell. The answer to that is, not anymore. It stopped mattering after 1170 when there was an enormous restructuring of the afterlife and entry into Heaven became largely egalitarian. This resulted in much of Limbo being emptied (as the souls were put in their proper places), as a result, Lilith killed the former Prince of Limbo and declared it her territory.

Got an idea for the RP? Put it up in the Worldbuilding thread.

Rules As They Are:

1. Thou shalt obey OP, my word is law.
2. Nature-Spirits is my co-OP. Obey his maple syrupy law as well.
3. I'd like at least 4 lines per post. They should be grammatically correct sentences, too.
4. No godmodding. Simple as that.
5. Three strikes and you fail the Grand Test, meaning you're out of the RP.
6. If you are inactive for a week or more, please TG me before replying with your current character. I may ask you to create a new one. (This is a preliminary rule an depends on how active the IC is when it is created)
7. Keep it PG-13. I know succubi feed off of sex, but seriously, keep it PG-13 or I kick you from the RP.
8. Be realistic in what weapons you carry and what weapons your character knows how to use. Chances are if you're a desk clerk you probably don't know how to swing a sword, whether you're a human or demon.

⑨. Have fun, and as always, stay frosty.

Barapam - Daniel Hansen - Ninth Circle
Occupied Deutschland - Clarissa Trahan - Eighth Circle
Norvenia - Mason Asim Kane - Seventh Circle
Cylarn - Lawrence Prideaux - Seventh Circle
Me - Anna Sniegowski - Fourth Circle
Olthar - Maralah - Fifth Circle

Olthar - Lexani'anrath'ghathar - Second Circle
Co-OP - Annis - Ninth Circle

[Olthar]

Demon App:
Name: Lexani'anrath'ghathar, Lexi for short
Age: 453
Species: Succubus
Appearance: Contain yourselves, please.
Circle: 2

Personality: For a demon, Lexi is unbelievably nice and carefree. Most humans would probably still call her cruel and psychotic. She doesn't really buy into the "being a demon" thing. Tortue is fun and all, but she just doesn't get invested in her work. She feels like there's something better she could be doing.
Likes: Sex, fuzzy things, sex, cupcakes, sex, sex, masturbation, sex, horseback riding, torturing the souls of men, sex, and sex
Dislikes: Most of the things found in Hell, men, her boss, and having to work overtime without getting paid for it

Strengths: As a regular succubus
Weaknesses: As a regular succubus

Bio: Being quite young for a demon, Lexi is at the absolute bottom of the totem pole, making her the whipping girl. She's not even high enough to be given the honor of cleaning the toilets. Every minute of her life is, well, Hell. One time, she was assigned to be the underling of a demon rat for three decades, just because her boss thought it would be funny.

However, there were some good parts, though few and far between. Specifically, there was this one time were she accidentally got caught in a summoning ritual and found herself bound to the human world. She ended up living there for almost twelve years before her boss sent someone to drag her back to Hell.

That was unequivocally the best time she'd ever had, even if she got punished severely for it back home. It also left her with the goal of ultimately bettering herself. She hasn't been able to make much headway on it due to the conditions if her life, but she's trying. Somewhat. Torture is still fun.

RP Sample: And on the eighth day, God said, "Let there be Olthar!" And He looked upon His creation and wished He looked that dead sexy.

[Nature-Spirits]

Just posting here to let you know I see this, I've briefly skimmed over the OP, and I will be back. I'm not sure when I'll be able to put up an app, though.

...We have Ava Ire here when I'm using Odin Arrow for the appearance of one of my characters. Absolutely perfect.

Furry wolf-demon goes here.

Demon App:
Name: Lycaon, King of Arcadia
Age: Indeterminate
Species: Hellhound
Appearance:

Anthropomorphic Form
Feral Form

Circle: Seventh Circle, Central Ring
Personality: Lycaon managed to hold onto his arrogance and spite for the divine races. Those being out of reach (normally), he redirects it at the omegas of his pack and the damned souls. Greedy, extremely violent, and vain.
Likes: His duties as a torturer, soul-flesh, exploring new and exciting methods of inflicting pain and terror.
Dislikes: Divinity, Gabriel, Zeus, God, etc. And heat.
Strengths: Bite force equivalent to having an aircraft carrier land on you from ten thousand feet; the colder it gets, the faster he becomes.
Weaknesses: The warmer it gets, the slower Lycaon becomes; standard weaknesses of the hellhound.
Bio: We all know the story; man distrusts the divine and decides to test their power to determine whether they are TRULY worthy of it. Bellerophon rode to the heavens of Mount Olympus and was struck down before reaching the top, Lucifer sought to cast off the chains that God had placed upon him and was cast down from Heaven because of his simple desire for freedom. Lycaon is another such example.

Lycaon, formerly King Lycaon of Arcadia, was once a wise and powerful ruler. He took his kingdom and transformed it into a utopia which was the envy of those his subjects worshiped as gods. And, of course, even those gods took a liking to it. Once, the mighty Zeus even visited the land and was hosted by Lycaon himself.

But of course, Lycaon was not a believer in these so-called 'gods' and decided to test his powers by serving him the roasted flesh of a child. Zeus, having seen through the deception, smote Lycaon upon his spear and cast him out of the palace. Zeus, enraged by Lycaon's deception, decided to transform Lycaon and his 50 sons into wolves and cast them into the Inferno.

Over the years that followed, Lycaon and his pack walked through Hell with vengeance on their tongues and fire burning their pads. Eventually, some of the pack left for other Circles and other Masters.

The pack was eventually cut down to a matter of ten including himself as they entered the Circle of Violence. There, they found a home in the Central Ring among the trees and screaming souls. Lycaon and his nine remaining sons settled there in the cold, snowy forest, deciding to pledge themselves to Berith.

Lycaon, of course, is set on calling her Ares.
RP Sample: Meh.

Tag here. Wörkload had gotten the better of me lately, but I'll see if I have time.

[Barapam]

Tag! ^^

[Nekronia]

70% of my first app done. Now to get ready for bed. Goodnight everyone.

[Barapam]

Soul App:
Name: Daniel Hansen
Physical Age: 33
Appearance:

185 cm tall, cendre hair, blue eyes. A perfect Aryan, according to himself.
Date of death: December 31st, 1943.
Cause of death: Shot in the head by a Soviet sniper.
Circle: Ninth, Treachery.
Personality: Angry, and very prone to violence. He's unable to see things from other people's point of view, and always thinks he's right, no matter what.
Likes: Very young women and girls, lots of booze, killing.
Dislikes: What he sees as: Weakness, cowardice, socialism, democracy, inferior races, and also showing mercy.
Strengths: Stubborn, fanatic, physical strength.
Weaknesses: Fanatic, unable to cooperate.
Bio: Daniel was born in Oslo in 1910. His father, a construction worker, was already dead, killed in a work related accident, and his mother was often very sickly and depressed. Daniel was always an odd boy. Different, somehow. He was a bully, and the other children were afraid of him. At 19, his mother died and he took care of his little sister Marit, the only other Hansen child, by himself. He loved her very much, in his own twisted way. At 23 he joined the recently founded Norwegian Nazi Party, Nasjonal Samling. At the same time, his little sister Marit, reached puberty. Something awoke in Daniel when he noticed how her body changed, and he raped her multiple times over time, something that ultimately drove her to suicide. She wrote in her suicide note how her brother had betrayed her. Daniel burned the letter. Around this time, he began to drink heavily.

When Hitler invaded and occupied Norway in 1940, Daniel almost immediately betrayed his country and became a collaborator. If he knew or found a Jew or a resistance fighter, he reported it right away. In 1941 he joined Hirden, Nasjonal Samling's paramilitary troops, akin to the German SA, since young party members now were encourged to do so. Daniel's new job was as a guard in the infamous prison Grini, and he took geat pleasure in beating up the inmates and abusing them physically and mentally. But that wasn't enough for him. In 1942, he volunteered to the SS Schijägerbattalion "Norwegen" as he wished to, as he said it himself, "...slaughter reds by the front, not just in prison".

Said and done. On the frontlines he could live out all his sick fantasies. He rarely took prisoners, and when he did, it was only to torment and torture them before killing them. One of his men compared him to Oskar Dirlewanger, "only more blood thirsty". He rose to the rank of Obersturmführer. On New Years Eve 1943 his life was abruptly ended by a Russian sniper.

Daniel was very disappointed to learn that he didn't wake up to feast among the gods and heroes in Valhall.
RP Sample: On this account, two quite relaxed rp:s only. But I have more if you want.

App doesn't look too bad, but I would like some more/better RP samples.

[Barapam]

Ok, I have two older nations, RP Puppet and Al Queda, I can revive them and show you what I've written before, even if it was a while ago.

Edit: Upon further inspection, my posts as Al Queda were pretty bad, but I've provided what I wrote as RP Puppet down below, so I hope it's all right.

Hmm I have an idea for a higher level demon, an officer for Lilith perhaps. Can I be that?

If I make an app for him does it go here or should I post it in the world building thread?

Not unless you want him to be an NPC, no. Either way the app would go in the worldbuilding thread.
