[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 3304368, member: 1241"] So something like “ancient records state that Bel once served Dispater, but for as long as anyone can seem to remember he has been on Avernus.” OK good, I’ll worry about Zariel, Levistus and Fierna later. ;) Thanks; I’ll figure out how I want to make use of them. :) probably not much though, but I don’t want to skip over them either. Was Morsch, the commander of Mammon's armies, mentioned anywhere other than Faces of Evil? D’oh! Missed him… Ah, right! It’s easy to forget that MC8 had at least as much influence on the early development of Planescape as did the MotP and the various 1E sources… And so Gazra’s crystal castle and hamathula army are indeed described in MC8 (the references in which, are repeated in PS-MC1) Also, it looks like the Dark Eight were first described in MC8, most likely as a replacement for the original 1E Lords of the Nine (a concept which had to be dumped at the time). Bel is also described therein, as an honored pit fiend commander who patrols Avernus. Under the Spinagon entry, it is noted that a pit fiend named Greth once advanced a spinagon to a hamatula, but I have no idea if he’s mentioned again anywhere else. Well, true… but I’m not interested in all of them, just the ones that play(ed) important roles in the hierarchy of the Lords of the Nine. I could go on forever, but I’d like to limit my research to only 100 hellish nobles or so. ;) Thanks – I’ll research all of that when I can. Besides Planes of Law, Hellbound, and Faces of Evil (i.e., the obvious ones), where else do I need to research in Planescape for info on the Lords of the Nine and their power structure? I mean even the little bits and pieces of info scattered about… [/QUOTE]
