Pretty much.Nope, not unless the hammer's made from cold iron.  Otherwise, get ready to shave off 15 points from all damage achieved by this hammer.  Balors are affected only by cold-iron, good-aligned weapons.One blasphemy from the balor and the deva goes bye-bye.Unless you have something the balor really wants and it can't just take it from you, I don't see this working out well for you at all.  Of course, this depends on how your DM handles balors.  IMC, a balor's very unlikely to bother with negotiating with beings from which it needs nothing.  It's likely to either immediately kill them, leave them alone, maul and maim them, or simply ignore them until they do something to warrent its attention (they are Chaotic afterall).  Now, if you have something it needs (like information related to who's asked you to kill it) and it decides not to torture you for the information it needs, then perhaps you can get out of this for the time being.  You're not dealing with a pit fiend that may be amused in chatting with you while it considers three dozen ways to ruin your lives for the next fourty years; you're dealing with something that's the personification of violence, misery, and pain.  Good luck!</blockquote>
