Asmodeus

Asmodeus, King of Demons, Prince of Hell, Lord of Sin and Bearer of the Bloodied Mace.

There are many stories and legends spoken of Asmodeus. Some say he is the child of Lilith and her lover, the angel Samael. Others say he is a cambion, the son of King David of Israel and the succubus Agrat bat Mahlat. Still others believe him to be the youngest son of Adam, born to him by the fallen angel Naamah.

Regardless of his origins, Asmodeus has been around for many an age, and has climbed up the ranks of the Abyss to stand atop its infernal legions as one of that dark realm's lords and masters. He wandered the Earth for many years, selling his services to kings and warlocks, allowing himself to be bound by mortals in exchange for knowledge and influence over the affairs of mankind. He came to understand humanity intimately during this period and began to corrupt our societies from the inside. Eventually, he even became king of his own dark empire, and lead countless souls into damnation, until he was banished by Solomon, cast out into the Abyss.

But cunning Asmodeus had been planning for that eventuality. He summoned to him all those souls he had damned to the infernal realm and bound them to his service. He carved a path of destruction through the Abyss, until the other lords of that dark place acknowledged his power, and he ascended into the ranks of the demon princes.

Today, Asmodeus commands the largest army of demons in the Abyss. His kingdom stretches to very gates of Hell, at the deepest reaches of the Abyss, and it is said he has even communed with Lucifer himself. He rarely answers summons now, but he has countless minions willing to serve as agents of their master's will and spread his Sin across all of creation.
