Hell Lords

"The Hell Lords are the equivalent of the Council of Godheads, only instead of being entities that inhabit the realms of light with God as the boss, they are the entities that inhabit the deepest pits of darkness with the Prince of Hell, Satan, being the boss of it all."

- Carl Black.

The Hell Lords is a group of powerful demons and dark underworld gods each in control of their respective 'Hell' dimension.

Overview
Hell Lords are the spiritual opposites of the Council of Godheads, each member of the Hell Lords is a dark being of such immense power. From time to time groups of them meet to discuss issues concerning all of them. As the name suggests each Hell Lord also has complete mastery over their hellish realm and while they tend towards working alone the Hell Lords will sometimes work together in order to deal with large threats or to further their infernal goals.

Description
Many of them have claimed or played off the fear of the idea of "the Devil", a single absolute overlord of all evil. Some of their gatherings are even around the main throne which even Satan has not touched. It is rumored that this throne belongs to Ayin herself or at least the first leader of Hell.

Hel and Pluto control realms of the dead, but are considered 'Death-Gods' and not Hell Lords. Despite this distinction, both Hel and Pluto are considered members of the Hell Lords though Pluto may soon leave them.

History
Aqquoonkagua, Dansker, Kx'ulthuum, Xuthl, and others were among the Hell Lords during the Pre-Cataclysmic Age and the Hyborian Age. The main four eventually lost their power overtime, allowing others to take over.

Quotes

 * "The Hell Lords are a council of demons and dark gods who hold the title of [Satan], with - unsurprisingly - Satan being their leader, though called [Ha-Satan] to differentiated him from the rest. Their divine equivalent is the Council of Godheads while their mortal equivalent is the United Nations. They gather once every three years to discuss underworld-related matters before usually getting wasted, the consequences of which are dealt with by the rest of them." - Matt Wright.


 * "The demons who form the image of [The Devil] in the Western world." - Diana Black.

Quotes
