Message: <blockquote data-quote="The Serge" data-source="post: 2411744" data-attributes="member: 4049">We just wrapped up our first publication at Dicefreaks, The Gates of Hell.  Therein, we provide information on the various falls among the angelic hosts.  Some, like Apollyon (who is not featured in TGoH) fell so long ago he has always been thought of as a demon prince.  Others, like Semyaza, was a Voyeur (our spin on the Watcher angels of Biblical and Hebrew gnostic tradition) and fell due to lust and interferring in mortal lives against the will of the gods.  Then there was The Great Fall in which 1/3 of the angels from across the Realms Above (the upper planes) plummeted into the Depths Below (the lower planes).  Among these were the likes of Astarte, Beelzebub, Belial, Eblis, and Moloch (four of these eventually became Lords of Hell). At Dicefreaks, we do not assume that angels and fiends are the same.  Nor do we assume a shared origin for all fiends.  The Gates of Hell features an origin specifically for devils (born from the blood of The Overlord of Hell when he fell), while we will have an origin for demons in Horrors of The Abyss and for daemons in The Depths of Despair.  So too will angels have an origin story (or stories) in A Light From On High.  Since we don't presume a shared origin (not to suggest that some origins won't put forth such a contention), we have a fallen angel template in Chapter Four of TGoH. Good luck and have fun.</blockquote>
