Demon

From NexusWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

The term demon is applied to any character who has begun (or completed) the process of descension. In practical game terms, this is any character who has selected either the Pariah or Defiler character class (as these are the gateways). Only characters with morality of -20 or less are able to choose these classes.

Demonic characters suffer one great disadvantage: they are unable to be healed by other characters. This is an innate facet of their being, as they are cursed to fend for themselves due to their inbred chaotic and individualist natures.

Demonic characters do not suffer any damage when travelling in the plane of Stygia. It is their home plane and they can take succor within its screaming winds.


Pariah

A half-demon, servitor warrior of darkness.
The Pariah is the canonfodder of hell. Vicious, fast, and lethal, they are less able to defend themselves than Myrmidons or Paladins. However, they make up for this with the speed at which they can inflict damage. Pariahs have a special power that allows them to explode at will, inflicting damage to all that are near.
Infernal Behemoth
An extremely powerful demon lord.
The classic hellish lord, the Infernal Behemoth is a hulking monstrosity devoted only to inflicting as much pain as possible. Infernal Behemoths are simple creatures: they kill and kill and kill, always seeking their Bloodlust.
Void Walker
A demon lord with the ability to manipulate hellish magic.
The Void Walker is the darkness that creeps in at night and steals dreams. It is the Void Walker who smothers children and murders pets. These demons are nightmares made solid, vile, oily creatures that walk through walls. Void Walkers are able to cast spells.

Defiler

A dark sorcerer dedicated to evil.
The Defiler is a damned individual who has sold his soul for immediate profit. Defilers are initiates into the paths of infernal magic, and have powers that drain and poison their foes.
Dark Oppressor
A master of manipulating hellish magic.
The Dark Oppressor is the true master of hellish Stygia: he is the Lord of Hell and commands its armies. Dark Oppressors command through fear: fear of the Oppressor's Agony Curse. The Dark Oppressor is extremely powerful when he is in Stygia - moreso than many Infernal Behemoths.
Wyrm Master
A demon sorcerer who has the ability to summon creatures from the void.
Wyrm Masters are mutated, infernal magicians who have focused their studies on the control and mastery of Stygia's many creatures. They are capable of summoning these vile things and controlling them as pets.
