The Seven Princes of Hell are the highest and most powerful of all demons, regardless of their origins. They represents each of the seven deadly sins, Lust, Gluttony, Pride, Sloth, Envy, Greed, and Wrath. The leader of the princes is Lucifer, who is the Supreme Ruler of Hell, whose authority is beyond that of any other demons, with his most loyal follower Beelzebub by his side.

The Seven Princes of Hell are the highest-ranking demons and the rivals of the Seven Archangels.

Overview[]

The Seven Princes lead the demons of Hell. They can turn entire lands into wastelands and command entire armies. Ruthless and cold, they are monsters, inside and out.

Lucifer divided Hell among the Seven Princes so that each of them can rule over their own subjects and lands. While the system is popular among demons because it is organized, a few hated being at the bottom while others are at the top.

The Princes of Hell are the demonic counterparts of the Seven Archangels.

Description[]

The Princes of Hell are high level demons that possess powers over all demons in Hell, totally transcending every lesser demon to the point where they are able to destroy legions of low level demons with the snap of a finger. Many demons and even angels like the cherubim fear coming into a Prince's field of vision, as some of them who have fallen were seraphim level demons and even True Archangels like the Morning Star.

They say that even for a human to summon a prince from Hell is a super risky thing to do, because the more powerful the demon the greater the offering has to be to force a manifestation in the Human Realm. In some cases, they say that the manifestation of a powerful Prince like Asmodeus is capable of causing a blackout across the North American continent. Regarding the offering, to invoke someone like Beelzebub may require sacrifice from several people, although in some cases it is not such a sacrifice (by the Devil's own choice).

History[]

The Seven Princes are the demons who sided with Lucifer during the War in Heaven. After falling from Heaven, they turned from beautiful celestial beings to hideous demons.

The newly-turned demons started to form a new government. Through charm, bribery, and intimidation, Lucifer became the new king of Hell and made everyone else bow before him.

Overtime, the Seven Princes formed a strong dominion over Hell. Lucifer became the emperor with his second in command being Beelzebub. The Seven Princes decided to take their revenge against God by leading humanity down the path of Sin, which resulted in them becoming the embodiments of the Seven Deadly Sins: Pride, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, Wrath, Envy, and Lust.

They are our greatest enemies. The leader of the group is Lucifer who had rebelled against father and caused the death of thousands of our siblings.
An Angel.
The Seven, demonic beings of immense power and presence. A wave of their hands, and whole swaths of land would be reduced to inhospitable wastelands. A simple command, and an army would charge out to crush their foes, more afraid of failing their leader than the pointed spears of their enemies. They were monsters, both in body and heart. Ruthless and cruel, their souls were hardened by ambition and Faustian efficiency.
A hunter.
