Do Demon Lords and the Dukes of Hell grant spells to worshippers in the same way gods do? And if so, why aren't they divine?
I understand that in default D&D you can just worship "Goodness" or "Evil". Would worshipping a Demon Lord/Duke of Hell be a similar thing - with the demon/devil being a kind of focus for the worshipper?
What does it take for a Demon Lord/Duke of Hell to ascend to true godhood? I believe Lolth ascended to godhood at some stage and possibly Orcus?
I can't help but think of Iuz, too. He was the offspring of a Demon Lord and a powerful human witch. He is effectively a cambion (half demon/half human) but he rose to godhood and is now far more powerful than his demon lord father, Graz'zt!
