New NPCs
Larzarus (dead): The last legion devil survivor of the mustered offensive which stormed the senate chamber thinking the party responsible for the massacre within. He promised he'd be waiting for them all down below. His black blood proved poisonous to vampires, due to his immortal nature.
Tirgian Smythe (dead): The cambion evangelist who led a legion of armored devils against the party in the upstairs hall. His loyalty to the Lord of the Nine was absolute, convinced like the erinyes that Hecate was a figment and that the one true power in Hell was his master Asmodeus. He informed the party of a fiendish generator behind the barrier, supposedly operated by Asmodeus himself.
Templar Gargulos: A minotaur loyal to Asmodeus who was caught stealing from the Baron's treasury. He revealed that the soul barrier was built by the preeminent engineers of Hell, a clan of duergar led by The Architect of Misery, and that they also built the generator. To save his life, he offered the name of one who might help them bypass the portal, the resident necromancer Zentil Filtheater.
The Architect of Misery (mentioned): Leader of the premiere hellish engineers and builders, a clan of duergar who built the soul barrier as well as the Asmodean's mysterious generator. He's been known to work for all sorts of archfiends and now Asmodeus himself.
The Duergar Engineer (mentioned): Representative of the Architect's clan within the Baron's citadel, presumed behind the soul barrier.
Zentil Filtheater (mentioned): Resident necromancer of the Baron's keep and perhaps the only one inside capable of penetrating the soul barrier. Somewhere in the eastern complex.
Rimmon Damas: Not much is known of this royal fiend, suffice to say he looks terribly imposing at nine feet tall, with a scaly ogre's body and the amalgam head of a crocodile, goat and man, robed in fire and wielding a black, hooked mace. A clear foe of Mara and apparent ally of Flamen Pontifica.
Flamen Pontifica: The tiefling high priestess of Asmodeus, strange and ungainly with her fetishes, symbols and armor surgically installed into her jaundice person. She wields a grand staff topped with a pentagram and looks a match even for Mara. Ally of Rimmon Damas.
Sleria: A seductive half-succubus tiefling armed with a spear, masturbating to all the carnage of the eastern foyer.
Kinimo: A seductive half-succubus tiefling armed with a spear, masturbating to all the carnage of the eastern foyer.
Returning NPCs
Mara D'Amoria: The would-be exarch of Hecate is fighting for her life and the survival of the goddess's church in Ribcage against a slew of Asmodeans, his high priestess and a royal devil among them. Around her neck is the soul-stealing bauble...
New Hooks
The Souls Generator: A cascading soul barrier stands between the Dark Three and the mysterious generator, operated by Asmodeus himself if the evangelist is to be at all believed. Built by the premiere engineers in all the infernal realms, the duergar clan belonging to none other than The Architect of Misery, it stands to reason whatever this contraption does is very bad and devastatingly effective.
Next Session
94b: A fateful battle ensues between Mara D'Amoria, the despised would-be exarch of Hecate, against the combined tenacity of Asmodeus's lieutenant Rimmon Damas and his high priestess Flamen Pontifica. The fate of Ribcage, Isabella's soul, Hecate's church and the future of Hell may hang in the balance. Where will the allegiance of the Dark Three fall?
