Raging Demon

Raging Demon

Raging Demon is the demon of jailers, imprisonment, and execution. For the Raging Demon, mercy, compassion, and caring are seen as weaknesses that must be overcome. There is a great hatred for mankind for the sinfulness that forces them to carry out their duties. It is the job of this demon to clamp down on sinners.

Inferno

In the book "The Divine Comedy", by Dante Alighieri:

"Suddenly, a Raging Demon appears, and Virgil hides Dante behind a large rock so he can go to the demons and make a deal for their safe passage.

The demon is carrying a sinner, which he tosses into the pitch, saying that he is going back for more sinners to place in the chasm of Grafters. The other demons warn the sinner to get beneath the pitch or the sinners will taste their grappling hooks."

Essentially, this is a demon that tosses sinners into the pit of hell, or the lake of fire.

pecial abilities

The Raging Demon can stun, disorient, and confuse sinners, criminals or attackers with a frostbiting coldness field.
