Forces of Hell(2000: Doomsday)

"All falls before the command of Hell, for our power is absolute, our march to victory inevitable. Before our armies, even the Elemental Wraiths of Argent D'Nur were subjugated. "

The Forces of Hell, also sometimes referred to by the Angels as the Archenemy, is a catch-all term that includes all of the myriad servants of the Satan and of the Hell.

While the Demons are probably the most visible and powerful of the Forces of Hell, they are supported by countless numbers of other servants, including human Cultist, Traitors, the Fallen Angels and the hordes of Hell Beasts.

Society
It is difficult to speak of Hell in terms of society, since Satan's servants do not live together, but exist together forming an evil horde. It is rumored that there is a hierarchy that governs the interaction of the infernal kingdom, in whose head are the three main Demons; Lucifer / Satan, Belzebu and Astaroth. It is said that the major demons have cuts, in which they reside as Lords. It is also said that the Infernal Citadel houses libraries, homes and places of study where the beauty of the forbidden is taught. Many give credit to these rumors, but most, especially those who belong to the Church of God, see what they are. An attempt by terrified people to print human characteristics to such a strange entity whose own nature is a source of terror.

However, such rumors could arise from a tragedy that is becoming commonplace. It is the tragedy known as Heresy. Heretics are members of the human race who, by choice, or for not enduring too terrible pain, have given themselves over to Hell. Heretics are all those who perform any action that can betray humanity through acts or deals made with a demon. Such individuals are embraced by Hell and slowly corrupted until their own race becomes the image of the enemy, until they look at the faces of children with nothing but hate. And only when they are completely lost do they hear the devil mock their weakness.

As the number of these individuals grows steadily, they form groups to prevent their discovery. It could be argued if these poor unfortunates are part of the society of Hell, but the notion that these human practices persist beyond the thresholds of the Infernal Citadels is clearly absurd.

We only have the vague idea in the world beyond the Citadels, terrifying flashes similar to images of a half-remembered nightmare. We contemplate pain, pain and more pain. We see despair, eternal and without limits. We see large prayer rooms and suffocating torture rooms. We see the distortion chambers, where the last vestiges of goodness and hope, the very essence of humanity, are extracted from men, and they are poured into cubes as if they were grills. And then, their empty and howling husks are filled with filthy filth that flow through their veins pumped through their body through a heart that wants to die but is kept alive and dormant by the power of Hell. These are the nightmares that create the vile Demons. These are nightmares that are nothing more than a small part of a terrible truth.

This is the society of the forces of hell, a community of agony, a culture of despair, a fraternity of hate ...

Army
The military might of Hell is enormous and fearsome. Their armies swarm next to the Infernal Citadels in seemingly inexhaustible quantities. The human forces that confront them are witnessing demonic visions of hell.

But even worse is to confront their own fallen comrades in the form of Infernal Legionaries, or the cruel Demons and beasts that have been deformed and converted to evil, but still possess some vestige of evil intellect. This is the miserable progeny of hell and the best thing that their former human companions can do is blow them up and turn their bodies into bloody piles.

Legionaries gather for millions under the banners of the greater Demons. The bulk of the forces of hell are composed of these damned souls, prisoners after death, collected from the battlefields and desecrated. These hordes of zombie warriors load without will of their own on the battlefield, going through the defenses of humanity.

Among the forces of Hell there are more subdivisions, created according to the nature of the major Demons and the abominations they prefer to make up the ranks of their respective armies. Beings that form the hierarchy inferior to the Greater Demons. Each Major Demon has the eternal service of the Subordinate Spirits, corrupted by the nature of their lords. The Subordinate Spirits act as lieutenants of the legions and command the hordes in battle.

Other humanoid creatures such as Incubus that are part of the armies of Hell can be found below the Nefarites. They have been created by the Major Demons against humanity and God.
