One of Nod's greatest warriors who descended with him in the fall, Alu is an ancient and powerful archdemon. He was regarded as being among the strongest of the fallen, blending pure power and metaphysical mastery with wisdom, strategy, and versatility. He oversaw the competition between beasts for food, territory, and hierarchy, and was known to be especially fond of goats.
A masterful tactician, he took charge of training Nod’s rebel forces, educating them on the strengths and weaknesses of their enemies through careful study both in and out of combat, teaching them how to discern friend from foe, and forging alliances with many of the more skeptical of his kin. He was regarded as being a thoughtful and charismatic leader, which lended aid to his task of recruiting other angels to Nod’s cause. His intelligence paired with his strength made him among the more difficult of the rebels to defeat, as his constitution and strength made him particularly resistant to the holy powers of the Almighty and his faithful. Even still, the mighty warrior was overwhelmed by the sheer number of foes he was put against and was doomed to join his king in the fall.
Still loyal to Nod, he would not yield his spirit to defeat. Instead, he would set to work helping build the kingdom of Hell by using his charisma and intelligence to form alliances with other gods and races in the realm of the Underworld. He acted as a consort to Nod, sitting on his council of advisors and helping bring to fruition his vision of Hell by leading its armies. He would later be picked to head the military branch of Satan’s Tower, the Tower of Justice. As the era of Nod came to an end and Satan was elected as the new Regent, Alu would be handpicked by her and confirmed by the Magistry as the first Master of Legions, effectively making him the head of all of Hell’s military forces. His inauguration was well received by the masses, as Alu had garnered a reputation not only as one of Nod’s finest, but also as a dedicated protector of the realm and its residents, and a deeply involved member of the kingdom’s communities. Suffice it to say, he had more than earned the title.
Following the abrupt end of Satan’s Regency, Alu was among the first of her supporters to disavow Lucifer’s seizure of power, citing that it had violated the rules of law established by the Magistry with regards to succession. However, he refused to openly challenge the Royal, instead thinking it wiser to wait and see what he planned. His caution was also spurred on by the status of Astaroth- his companion and partner- who was pregnant at the time of the coup. His intuition sharp as ever, his initial silence proved to be the correct response; shortly after his imposed Regency, Lucifer began shifting the democratic monarchy into a totalitarian regime with critics and dissenters labeled as traitors to be jailed or executed whenever possible. In the midst of this, Astaroth gave birth to their son, though their joy at becoming parents was short-lived. Upon learning of the birth, Lucifer stormed their chambers and seized their child, believing it to be his as he revealed that he had been dishonest about his own relationship with Astaroth, citing that he had only chosen to be with him in order to produce an heir. Alu, enraged, challenged the Regent head on. Despite his fervent attempts to fend off the tyrant, he was overwhelmed by Lucifer’s loyalist forces. The fight left Alu mortally wounded and he was denounced as a traitor to the Regency. He and Astaroth fled the castle and were forced into hiding, eventually leaving the realm entirely to avoid being hunted down by Lucifer.
Unable to return back to their kingdom but unwilling to abandon their home, the pair resolved to begin forming a resistance against Lucifer and his tyrannical regime. They already had the backing of the remaining Royals of the former Magistry. What they needed now was numbers. Over the span of generations, they would come to recruit a number of human followers and demons that had been displaced by Lucifer’s forces. They congregated in an apartment building and centralized, forming what would come to be known as the Eternal Order of the Second Death. Regarded as a cult by some, the Order’s intention was to build a community for demons and other Myths - a respite from both the war in Hell, and the war on Mythics on earth. It was also used as the headquarters of the infernal resistance, led primarily by Astaroth, who had taken the alias of “Gary Miller.”
It was during his time in the apartment complex that he met an incubus named Alastor Rosales - a demon who had been raised on earth after his family fled Lucifer’s regime - and his daughter, Alma. Alastor had recently relocated from Europe following a traumatic event that had seemingly left him an amnesiac widower. He’d been recommended the apartment complex by the Takamura Sisters, a familiar ally to the cult and the resistance. He’d expressed that, though he couldn’t remember why, staying in the area he’d lived in hurt. He wanted a fresh start and a safe, stable place to raise his daughter. Despite his honest attempt, Alastor was visibly anxious, depressed, and struggling to adapt. Seeing this, Alu stepped in to offer his help. He assisted Al in moving into his new space, helped him learn the ropes of his new home, connected him with resources and the community, and most importantly, helped him take care of Alma while he had to work..
Though initially quite nervous to be away from his daughter following a traumatic separation, Alma took to Alu very well and very quickly. He became the young girl’s sitter, teacher, and playmate and grew to love her just as much as she loved him. This provided her father with great comfort and relief. It allowed him to open up to Alu about his struggles and frustrations, specifically with regards to his issues with memory and the stresses of now being a single father. Alu comforted him and offered his support, reassuring Al that he was a good father, he was doing a great job raising his girl, and he wasn’t alone anymore. Through their frequent contact and shared experiences, the two developed a very close friendship. So much so that Alma took to calling Alu her “badi” - a term which came about from her trying to mimic his goatish bleats while calling him ‘daddy.’ The title stuck, and not one of them minded it at all.
As she grew older, Alu stepped up and helped Alma connect with her infernal heritage and gain mastery over powers inherited from the demon side of her lineage. She only grew closer to the archdemon — as did her father. Alastor had developed feelings over the course of their friendship, though he hesitated to speak of them due to his lingering anxieties and his focus on raising Alma. Similarly, Alu had begun to view Alastor as more than a mere companion, but a partner. He had always found the man attractive, but nurturing a life and being by his side for so long and getting to know him so intimately stirred within him the instinctual desire to court and mate him. However, much like Al, Alu hesitated for his own reasons. Most pressing was the memory of his lost son that still haunted him. Alu also worried that, being such a high profile target to Lucifer and his forces, he might endanger them by being too close. Perhaps his primary reason, however, was that Alastor made Alu feel something he had only felt on one other occasion: fear. He feared hurting Alastor or Alma. Particularly, he feared that he might do them injustice by being with them. Though Alastor had little to no recollection of his wife, he knew he had a wife. And he knew he had loved her deeply and intensely- because he ached with loss and grief for her just as much. And Alu feared that, if she was still out there, he would be encroaching on Alastor’s bond with her and keeping him from the happiness of being with the woman he so deeply loved, and the mother of his child. He did not want to be the reason for his distress, nor the dissolution of his family. And so he held his tongue and resisted the temptations of his heart, ignoring the magnetic pull which he felt grow stronger every time he saw the incubus. Just the same as Alastor did.
Until they couldn’t ignore it any longer.
One night, with Alma out of the apartment and at a sleepover, the two found themselves alone. Their usual late night conversations over tea drifted easily between topics, just as it always did. At some point, they broached the topic of progress and Alu remarked how far Al had come— how much he had healed and come out of his shell, how he’d found a routine that worked, and how he’d done so well taking care of his little girl. Touched by his words, Al reciprocated the appreciation and told Alu that it would not have been possible without his help. The two broke into playful banter, which turned into playful gestures punctuated by playful flirting. Yet as they grew closer and more intimate with their words and touches, playfulness fell away like the mask it was and revealed the genuine desire that had been brewing for all these years. Somehow, between heated words and desperate caresses, the two ended up in Alastor’s bed where they shared a passionate, heart-rendingly emotional evening that ended with the mutual, breathless confession of the feelings they had kept from each other for so long. Tenderly embraced, the two spoke in hushed whispers to each other about their concerns for what a relationship between them would look like. In the end, they agreed that their feelings were much too powerful to simply ignore, and they instead compromised to tread slowly and carefully — together.
Life went on as usual. Alma continued to grow. Their relationship slowly blossomed and their bond grew deeper. Alu’s dedication to his family and the resistance remained unshaken. He was often sent off on missions to scout, recruit, and check the perimeters and underground outposts set up by their growing network of resistance members. Whenever he was home, he spent his time with his partner and daughter. Alma’s powers began to grow more and more prominent, and thus, more and more of their time together was spent teaching her how to hone them. However, Alu could only offer so much assistance. Her divine half remained dangerously uncontrolled, and so he and Alastor turned to the merfolk for aid. Upon convening with them, they learned that Alma’s mother was named Sabrine and she was a demigod child of the sea god, Trityn. In honor of their fallen divine, they took to training Alma. The period was difficult for Alastor, as he once again grappled with the thought of being separated from his child. However, Alu managed to calm him by telling him that she would be safer knowing how to harness her abilities rather than trying to suppress them and self-destruct. Reluctantly, Alastor agreed.
The situation would reach a head when Alma completed her training and underwent a right of passage ceremony with the merfolk. Alu and Alastor attended, sharing in the joyful day’s festivities. However, celebration would turn to tragedy as human forces raided and destroyed the area, killing many merfolk and forcing the others to flee. Alu managed to escort his partner and daughter out of the area safely and returned home with them. When Alastor tried to comfort his child, Alma expressed anger rather than fear, and stated that she refused to live in hiding. She was going with the merfolk and joining the fight. Alastor protested this, and for several days the two were at odds. Alastor broke down and expressed to Alu that he could not bear the thought of losing Alma - not again. He felt as though he had failed her somehow, pushed her away to this. Alu comforted his partner, reassuring him that she was strong and capable. He also cautioned Alastor that while hadn’t driven Alma away, but his projecting his fears onto her and trying to keep her from independence very well would. Disheartened but knowing he was right, Alastor agreed to see her off. Alu would watch with him from the shore as their little mermaid swam off to war.
The interim of Alma’s service was a nerve-wracking period. Alastor was visibly distressed, always watching the news and reading the papers with an obsessive fear that his daughter’s name would be listed somewhere in the many columns of casualties. Even Alu began to worry between the letters they received from her. Yet as the war progressed and the tides turned, they began to hear her name - or rather her mother’s - on broadcasts. They read of her victories, her leadership, her growing infamy. And though they still felt great fear for her, they felt an even greater sense of pride. Just as Alu had once told Alastor early on in their friendship – Alma had gone on to do great things. When the war ended, they met her at their doorstep once more. She was weary, worn, but alive and well. And she’d brought company. The other woman who joined her revealed herself to be a sister of Sabrine and an ancient sea witch who had made a vow to her sister to protect them in her absence. She revealed the truth about Alastor’s late wife and returned his memories of her to him. Though painful, it allowed him to finally grieve the loss of his first love and address the core of many of his issues. With the three reunited and the war finally over, Alma expressed a desire to retire quietly from military life and begin her own passion project – close to home of course. And so, with much love and support from her fathers, Alma built and opened the Seasong Delivery Service. She would spearhead a reliable courier and transport network handling all kinds of merchandise and services.
With their daughter finally home safe and life finally seeming to settle properly, Alu and Alastor would take the next step in their own relationship. After nearly two decades of devoted and passionate courtship, Alu would finally propose to Alastor by asking to take each other as mates -- eternal companions. Alastor would agree readily, and the two would take the first step of their engagement by claiming each other with a Lovebrand - a physical, intimate mark to signify that they were bonded. Their engagement was far shorter than their courtship, with the two having a small, intimate ceremony combining traditional infernal and human practices. They would undergo the Ritual of Binding to permanently merge their Essence – the demon equivalent of a soul – into one new whole, exchange vows and rings, and officiate their marriage with a brush of their horns and a passionate kiss witnessed by all their friends and loved ones. With that, they officially took each other as husbands and mates.
Though life on earth was peaceful, especially now as they lived together in married bliss and domestic harmony, the war in Hell still raged on. Alu still had a duty to his people - something Al understood well. And just as with his late wife, the two came to the understanding that Alu would not bring his battles home and Al would not follow him out into danger. And so, Alu carries on as the head of the resistance's military endeavors. He remains a companion to Astaroth, reviewing tactics, strategizing for defenses, coordinating attacks, gathering intel, and continuing to try and recruit as many as he can to the cause. Though some believe him capable of finding the lost princess of Hell, he’s long abandoned the notion. His hope now is to simply stop Lucifer and restore some semblance of order to his old home. His new motivation: protect his family and the home they have never known.
Though he seems chaotic and unpredictable in every sense imagineable, Alu is dangerously intelligent and a master tactician. Every move is calculated. Bold, charismatic, and cunning, he earned his place as a Legate in Hell's military, and the overseer of all of its forces. Ever the strategist, he can assess, evaluate, and determine the most effective way to solve a problem or situation with a level of precision and speed that is genuinely frightening. Though venerated for his honor in combat, Alu acknowledges that times have changed - and he is still a demon. Patience is rewarding but brutality is never off the table, especially when it comes to his loved ones. He is loyal to his Queen and his kin, but he is even more fiercely protective of his mate and child, or any other he deems important enough to him. He will kill any perceived threat towards them without hesitation and will respond to hostility in kind. His long history as a grizzled, experienced warrior means he is versatile in many forms of combat. Even still, he is not above using dirty tactics to win in a struggle. He is a master trickster who aims to disorient, divide, and destroy, and when he cannot he lets his strength take over. Competitive and quick to anger, he channels his rage into pure power; his wild fury is unstoppable by most means and his endurance and constitution, along with his powers as an archdemon, make him a threat few can step to and hope to survive. As Astaroth once described him, “he's a heat-seeking missile with a long fuse and a big boom: patient, precise, and perfectly designed for destruction.”
Like all demons, Alu displays a level of competition and pride which could be considered elevated. Many would assume it to be the result of his rank as the leader of Hell’s legions. Yet despite his status, Alu seemingly prefers to boast about comparatively trivial things instead, such as his insatiable appetite for all things sinful, his extensive knowledge and understanding of theological history, his travels to various realms - especially on earth, his collection of earthly knick-knacks, his ability to conjure innocuous whims at will, his husband, or his daughter. Other demons respect him primarily for his reputation as a community-oriented fiend, and while his rank and title is also acknowledged by many, he never feels the need to use it outside of very specific situations involving military operations.
As mentioned, Alu is ever the indulgent type. When he’s not solely focused on his work as a general, Alu often takes a deceptive human form to sleep with men and women he fancies, collects and hoards things of interest, and gorges on food before taking days-long naps. He has an affinity for tricks and pranks, especially on those of a more superstitious or religious inclination. Though perhaps most curious is his natural inclination for wanting to explore the earthly realm. As a demon who’s spent the majority of his existence in Hell, most of Earth he's seen only through media and lessons, or through the lens of a warrior observing a battlefield for practical reasons. He is rarely able to indulge in his desire to study the various biomes and wildlife of the world. Additionally, mortals fascinate him, and he finds their odd habits and cultures incredibly interesting. Myths are especially intriguing, as their existence is one that he has very little understanding or knowledge of despite his study. Humans are the more common focus, both for positive and negative reasons. He tends to be dismissive of them outside of the members of the cult, finding it much more fun to tease them than actually engage. It is rare that he finds himself in the company of any human that can hold his interest. One consistent exception, however, is that he seems to bond easily with small children. He displays a strong protectiveness towards them, even going as far as to feed and shelter them if he finds them alone. This odd and seemingly uncharacteristic disposition can seem puzzling to those who know of him. But to those closest to him, the reason behind this behavior is well understood.
Like any warrior, Alu has a past which haunts him. He is a demon who despises failure, and none more so than his own perceived personal shortcomings. He does well to hide his weakness, masterfully redirecting prodding questions about himself if not outright stonewalling with intimidation. He shows no vulnerability - both because he feels he must maintain the image of a strong, unwavering leader, and because he refuses to confront his own past and process the grief, anger, and shame he associates with it. He represses his feelings as best he can, though the memories refuse to fade and this often leads to him expressing outward hostility and anger, mostly towards himself. He has a tendency to become self-destructive when his unaddressed traumas overwhelm him, lashing out violently. He tends to turn his anger on his surroundings and, depending on the severity of the trigger, can lose himself to his rage so thoroughly that he’ll only stop once he’s completely exhausted himself. Rare as these events are, they are explosive. Only once has a rampage been subverted entirely; only once has Alu allowed himself to crumble and expose the raw, painful wounds that linger beneath his carefully crafted armor. And he is hellbent on ensuring he is never seen like that again.
Though make no mistake: while Alu certainly can have his moments, he's still quite the wild old goat. He is loyal to few and listens to even fewer. Only Gary and Al are capable of reasoning with him, and even they make no guarantees. For the best results, try asking his daughter to talk to him. You may find that he folds to her much more easily.

Turngoat Warrior - FAITH: The Unholy Trinity / MAIN
Alu heads the Infernal Resistance alongside Astaroth. They operate out of an apartment complex, rallying demons scattered by Lucifer's tyranny over hell and gathering resources from a cult established to faithfully serve them. While their order has had some rumors circulating about them, mostly along the lines of typical Satanic Panic rhetoric, it's not quite as black and white as the Vatican would like it to be. The cult does summon demons, mostly as a means of carrying on Nod's work to help mortals understand the nature of the creatures beyond the scathing rhetoric fed to them by religious authority. The demons is question are often refugees trying to escape Lucifer's totalitarian regime, or those displaced after feeling Hell, and largely pose little to no threat. The humans that share the space with them, though labeled a cult, are merely an independent religious sect that have combined the tenets of Nod's wisdom and healthy indulgence with some neo-paganistic practices.
Chaos Reigns - FAITH: The Unholy Trinity
The Eternal Order of the Second Death is rumored to be a stereotypical Satanic cult engaging in human sacrifices and blood rituals with the intention of bringing forth the Antichrist and damning the Earth to be devoured by Hell and its demons; they summon the spawn of Satan and commit atrocities on the unwilling, such as ritual slayings in order to feed the beasts, and allow them to steal the souls of men and possess their bodies so that they may spread their evil sin. At least, that's what it looks like through the lens of a priest. Whether or not Gary is really running a cult fueled by bodies is up to interpretation. Alu certainly seems amused by it.
Hell On earth - DOOM
Corrupted by the Dark Lord Davoth, Lucifer seized the throne from Queen Satan and thrust the kingdom of Hell, and the Underrealm as a whole, into chaos. Driven by the primordial's lust for revenge on the creations who imprisoned him, he convinced Lucifer to use the forces of Hell to lay siege to the many other realms touched by Makyr influence - including Earth. Though as with any tyranny, a resistance rose up against Lucifer. The original fallen and the true followers of Nod rebuked the new Regency and its methods. However, an all out war against the new King was impossible, and their allies were scarce. Between the Slayer, the Makyrs, the humans, and the loyalists, the Infernal Resistance persists mainly in small pockets trying to connect themselves into a unified front capable of stopping Lucifer's senseless destruction and preserving the existence and balance of the many realms he's impacted.
Discord and Rhyme - KPop Demon Hunters
While the inhabitants of Gwi-Ma's kingdom may be bound to the Underworld by the Honmoon, Alu is not restricted by such trivialities as a song-based barrier between worlds. All the same though, he is a demon. And while he may look and act different that what the Hunters are used to seeing from an infernal, his lineage is undeniable. Yet, his reasons for being on earth and his motivations for staying (relatively) out of trouble may yet prove that he and Huntrix share a similar goal, and that it might be better to work together.

While Alastor is his husband and Astaroth is his partner, Alu is still open to romantic/sexual interactions and connections. They’ve all agreed to have open-ended arrangements with regards to their relationships.
Alu’s status and rank mean that his abilities are strong and he is tanky. He can fly, levitate, and use an invisible force to send people flying. He can hide within objects and turn invisible, can dart around very suddenly, and can possess priests.
Alu is incredibly powerful. Without a holy symbol, most people stand no chance against him. In fact, even with a holy symbol most people stand no chance against him.
Alu tends to be one of the pickier and more difficult demons that one can summon. While ones like Roger will settle for just about anything that gets sacrificed to them, Alu is quite choosy and requires very specific conditions to be met.
Alu doesn’t harm animals. Usually. He’s not inclined to be hostile towards them by default. He’s actually rather fascinated by them, especially herbivores. Carnivores he very rarely sees, but he’s had some nice conversations with wolves and the like. Most animals tend to disregard him, either because he seems like a normal goat from afar, or because of his infernal presence once they get closer. He’s only rarely been “hunted”. And in every case, the predator foolish enough to try and hunt him was sent scurrying. Or worse.
Alu tends to take the form of a large black goat while out wandering. As such, his sense of balance is phenomenal. He can navigate sheer cliffs with ease, run quickly and just surprising distances, and can ram into things with great force.
Some people have reported hearing the sound of a cowbell ringing when they see Alu running through towns and territories. He does not have a bell on him. As such, seeing a big black goat and hearing the sound of a cowbell ringing as it runs along is considered an omen of death.
Alu’s favorite plants to eat are nightshade, allium, blackberries, lavender, eucalyptus, strawberries, dandelions, clover, and water lilies.
When he’s not taking the form of a goat, Alu defaults to taking on a satyr-like appearance. He feels no need to hide himself, as he finds that humans either regard him as donning some sort of costume, or simply avoid him based on his appearance entirely.
The majority of Alu’s rampages stem from the trauma of losing his son with Astaroth. It is his most well-kept secret, and his heaviest. Only him, Gary, and Alastor know about it. It is not something he shares or talks about, and it is not something he has ever addressed or recovered from.
While the majority of the resistance holds onto the hope that the Princess of Hell can be found and take the throne from Lucifer upon her return, Alu believes himself to be more “realistic” and does not share in the sentiment that the princess will be found. He wholeheartedly believes that the only way to save Hell is to take down Lucifer.
As a fallen angel, Alu’s wings were originally very feathery and fluffy. However, as the centuries have gone on and he’s engaged in so much combat, the wings have become bare and taken on a red, skeletal appearance. This does not impact his ability to fly though.
While Alastor is his husband and Astaroth is his partner, Alu is still open to romantic/sexual interactions and connections. They’ve all agreed to have open-ended arrangements with regards to their relationships.
Alu is very explicit when it comes to dirty talk. If his mouth is busy, he'll communicate telepathically or read his partner's mind and mutter the filthiest sin about how it feels and what they want him to do to them- or what he wants to do to them.
No one leaves without experiencing the tentatongue firsthand. Alu loves giving oral as much as he does receiving it. The things he'll do with his mouth to make his partner cum is next to limitless.
Alu is very territorial. He's going to leave his marks, one way or another. Bites, hickeys, scratches, bruises - he's not a gentle lover unless he's already mated to someone. And even then, he likes to play rough if his partner can handle it.
Size kink: Alu is big compared to most people already, so he really enjoys a good size difference in bed. The way he can pin a partner down and dominate them so easily. Not to mention that because he's so big, seeing a bulge in his partner's abdomen from his dick is pretty much inevitable.
Despite how rough and tumble he can be, Alu isn't heartless. He won't violate any boundaries set beforehand. He makes sure to have a safeword, know the dos and don'ts, and will check in regularly to make sure he's not harming his partner. His focus is on pleasure. Which is why he has pain-killers and aphrodisiac in his semen.
Alu also has not one, but TWO knots! And he is very eager to use them if his partner thinks they can handle it.
This demon has the most intense breeding kink. Especially when mating season for demons comes around and he's in rut. Thankfully, he can also control whether or not the ejaculate he produces is viable.
Speaking of rut - this goat bastard can become very needy when the hormones spike. He becomes very physically affectionate, kissing on necks and shoulders, hugging his partners and holding them against him, grazing them with his tail or pressing his forehead/horns against their back all gentle, nuzzling on them to leave his scent. His signature move is licking at any mark (especially claim marks) he’s left on them to get them shivering and relay the message that he wants them. Now.
Like most demons, Alu can change his anatomy and he has done it before for his partners. It started as a curiosity and a desire to explore the sensation but... he ended up really liking the feeling of having a pussy to play with. Of course, he only breaks it out for those he's closest to and really trusts.
BDSM is always on the table. Though tying him up is limited to a select few partners. He prefers to dominate rather than be dominated.
Alu is weirdly good at Therapeudick Sex. This demon has, on multiple occasions, had sex with partners while listening to them vent or express themselves and providing comforting advice or guidance while making them cum. It's a bizarre thing, but it works.
Alu's horns, wings, and tail are all very sensitive. Caressing them or toying with them is a great way to get his attention. .
Alu’s tail is long and it is dexterous. He can (and will) use it for lots of things! Restraining limbs, grinding, teasing, pulling closer, denying orgasms, tracing, tickling, whipping, and more.
If given the opportunity to hunt his partner, Alu will jump on it. More than just flexing his skills as a powerful archdemon, he enjoys the thrill of the hunt. The chase, the toying, and best of all - the capture and the playful struggling as he claims his prize.
Though he isn't an incubus or any kind of sex demon, this goat's appetite for intimacy is insatiable. Give him the opportunity, and he'll spend all day in bed finding new ways to make his partner cum.
Alastor Rosales (@tacticalvalor)
Beloved Husband and Chosen Mate
Alastor Rosales is Alu’s loving and devoted husband. Having met after Alastor moved to the apartment complex inhabited by Gary’s cult (and various demons), the two developed a fast and close friendship, with Alu offering to help Al in his attempt to get a fresh start by helping the single father raise his daughter, Alma, and cope with a frustrating case of incurable amnesia. Over the course of several years, what began as a close friendship developed into an intense, deeply intimate romantic connection. They had a very long courtship, only marrying once Alma had settled into a safe and comfortable life of her own.
While the two demons are devotedly mated to one another, they are not opposed to exploring intimacy with other people and have what is best described as open marriage.
Alma Sabrine-Rosales
Beloved Daughter and Apple of his Eye
Alastor’s daughter from his previous marriage, Alu came into Alma’s life while she was still very young. Initially her babysitter and playmate, Alma grew incredibly attached to him and he to her. As time went on, Alu would take the young girl under his wing and treat her as his own child - a familial relationship which Alma reciprocated by calling him “badi” and referring to him as her other father.
Though the little mermaid is all grown up and living on her own now, Alu still regards her as his little girl - just the same as his husband does. The two have a wonderful relationship, and Alma frequently comes home to visit her papa and her badi.
Ahzrak “Azarkh” Sophonox
Missing Son
The beloved child of Alu and Astaroth, Ahzrak was taken from his parents when he was just a few days old. Having engaged in a relationship with Astaroth under false pretenses, Lucifer believed that Ahzrak was his son and kidnapped him to be raised as his own. Despite the attempts of his father to protect him, Alu would ultimately fail to stop Lucifer and the two would never know what became of their son.
Likewise, Ahzrak would grow up never knowing his true parentage, believing himself to be a Prince of Hell under Lucifer.
Astaroth “Gary Miller” Mensophos
Lifelong Companion and Partner
Another of the many angels who fell with Nod, Astaroth has been Alu’s companion and partner for thousands of years. Initially, their relationship was kept a secret. After they fell, they found themselves with much more acceptance, though they continued to maintain a level of privacy up until the rise of Lucifer’s tyranny. Following the loss of their son, the two have been a bit more open about their connection and received support for it. They remain as close as ever despite the circumstances.

Girlfriend / Partner
Having met the Siren after following Lisa to Hope County, her stubborn persistence to try and "purify" him wore down on Alu. She ended up catching his intense, obsessive interest and from that came a certain softness and fondness for the angel. A softness that became mutual.

Frenemy With Benefits
Accidentally summoned from stolen ancient texts, the demon acquired a certain obsession with the one who summoned him. An obsession which only grew after sleeping with her. Though it's hardly romantic, the demon remain possessive over her - and has a certain soft spot for her.
