Memophage, eaters of memory



In the deep wet dark dwell the Memnophage, the eaters of memory. These twisted, serpent like creatures are neither demon nor beast, but an unholy mixture of the two. They travel in schools along the bottom of the Styx, plucking away the stray traveler who chances to travel too close. Memnophages have been known to attack demon and soul alike, and as such are usually periodically exterminated to keep their populations low.

He who is taken victim is left alive, but is drained of all knowledge of everything, even the knowledge of how to walk and speak. A soul left in such a state will find himself in dire straights indeed.

Overlord Demons

A race of demons specifically bred by the higher Demon lords to act as lower level captains, slave masters, or work bosses. They are sufficiently intelligent enough to boss around those lower than themselves, but lack the will to make important decisions. They are bred for their size and strength, and tend to rely on brute force in any situation.

Malproditix, the Betrayers

The Malproditix are a type of demons who were originally the darkest of souls. Only the most willingly vile and destitute during life have the chance to join their ranks. They are called "The Betrayers" as they have turned their backs utterly against mankind and all that is good and pure for a pittance in Hell. Their bodies are permanently twisted and pierced. As each of their movements sends them into unknowable agony, and their only release comes from inflicting the same on others. Although they have earned somewhat of a position of respect in the lower demon hierarchies, most Demon Majors treat them little better than cannon fodder. During the many wars in Hell they are often sacrificed first.

HellRats

Infernal rodents, twisted and mutated through millions of years of exposure to dark magics and evil energy. HellRats swarm by the millions through the infernal cities, dungeons, and palaces in all levels of Hell, living off the detritus, waste, and carnage. They have been known to swarm and devour any stray demon or soul who ventures too far into the myrid tunnels or catacombs without adequate protection. They are a primary food source for most demons and souls, although most just exterminate them as vermin.

Soul worm

Soul worms are crafted from those who were truly cruel and manipulative in life. As they used their position and power to manipulate others unfairly in life thus are they condemned to crawl eternally along their bellies, at the bottom of Hell's food chain. Higher demon lords often use them as cattlefeed.

Carrion Slug

Carrion Slug are among the small group of rare mollusks to inhabit Hell. As the infernal planes are nearly devoid of water, the slugs have taken to using other liquids to obtain moisture. The creatures will slowly swarm on a sleeping demon or soul and rapidly drain it of all blood, leaving a withered husk in the morning. They are generally regarded as pests and are exterminated on sight, although several demon species enjoy feasting upon them, usually raw.

Moloch, the King of Shame

Moloch was a competing god who was worshiped by the ancient Israelites. Moloch's chief ritual seemed to be the sacrifice of children. Rabbinic commentary states that this was done by inserting the child into a the hands of a large brass statue, under which a brazier heated the statue until the victim was burned to death. Greek and Roman accounts from the same era describe similar rituals all over the ancient world.

In the Christian era Moloch became a demon, as a prince of Hell. He delights in stealing children and making mothers weep. The name "Moloch" has become symbolic of anything which demands unusually high sacrifice.
