The territory beneath the Ninth Layer - and the identities of princes that deep down - are unknown in [[Ahren]], at least in [[Wisteria]]. This has made the phrase "the Nine Hells" somewhat ubiquitous among those races, usually as an execration, such as "What in the nine hells!?"

New page

'''The Princes of Hell''' are powerful devils whose might makes them, in some ways, equivalent to gods themselves, and they are occasionally worshipped as such by the desperate or demented in [[Bastonia]], the [[Orcish Nation]], the remnants of the [[Shimmering Shores]], or even the [[Atarlie Empire]]. Though born in the same process as all devils, the Princes of Hell have ascended to phenomenal cosmic power, and rule over whole layers of hell as a result.

They are native to [[Hell]]. Unlike true gods, they maintain no realms, only territory, and are part of a shifting web of alliances and conflicts that keeps them from collectively organizing - perhaps a blessing to those in other domains. They can agree on only two matters - [[Ogharod the Conquerer]] must be driven from their domain and [[San Meteo]] is not to be trusted. [[The Enemy]] is sometimes included on this listing; however, he is properly a diety (not a devil at all) and belongs to the [[Bastonian Pantheon]], in spite of being apparently native to [[Hell]].

All the Princes of Hell are lawful-evil. As semi-divine beings, they do have worshippers from which they gain power and in whom they imbue divine spellcasting ability. Unlike normal deities, however, their bond to the mortals that follow them is weak enough that only '''Lawful Evil''' clerics can draw power from them, though they occasionally make deals (at terrible cost) with mortals of other alignments. In addition to law and evil, they each allow their followers access to two other domains as potential domain choices.

The territory beneath the Ninth Layer - and the identities of princes that deep down - are unknown in [[Ahren]], at least in [[Wisteria]].
