[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 3333131, member: 1241"] Cool, let's stick with that then. OK. Let’s do this one plane at a time. :) AVERNUS I’ll get into the Outcast Dukes later; though they currently play no part in Hell’s hierarchy, they are significant enough for a mention. “There are approximately fifty of these lesser unique devils; embittered, frustrated beings who torment the lemures and spined devils of this plane and viciously attack all intruders.” So, probably, they either switched off between Tiamat and Bel, or swear fealty to both, or are primarily the servants of one, but assist the other. You know though, given the fact that both dukes command companies of abishai, it does make sense that they would be working more with Tiamat. So, the pit fiend Goap is not mentioned in this book as far as I’m aware. Either he is just a servant of Bel, or maybe he has been transferred or destroyed? We don’t have any details about him anywhere, so he may simply not be all that important. About all we know is that he commands companies of erinyes, so seeing him with Bel rather than Tiamat would work fine. Note also that Bel has no consort. He was the consort of Zariel at one point (IIRC), but it doesn’t seem like he has one of his own yet. Dagos of the Dark Eight – I’ll stick with him as the leader of Zariel’s armies prior to the Reckoning. I could see him, Corin, and Pearza joining the ranks of the Hellish hierarchy just long enough to get into place for the Asmodeus-supported coup, then splitting off with the rest of the Eight when their old job was done and their new one begun. What more would need to be said about Dagos here? These two might rate as “honorable mention” even though they are lesser sorts than pit fiends. ;) oh, look, [url=http://www.geocities.com/ripvanwormer/malphas.html]someone already did something with these guys[/url]...
