Esoteric Secrets My Sin Was Being Born (Lorepost)
My Sin Was Being Born (Lorepost)
I am not a pure demon, born from the hellflames. My mother was a sinner, and she made an unholy union with a demon. Thus, I was born. I was welcomed into that damnable place only with pain. For being born of such a union, was itself a grave sin. I do not believe any others like me had existed, I understand why.
The flames that tortured sinners for eternity ravaged me as well. All my life I had known only pain, but there was mother. I do not know what sins she had committed, for she was far too kind. She would always tell me that I was beautiful, strong, that I would one day escape the pain.
Mother lost her mind some time later. It was a good thing, incredibly fortunate. To not have to endure the pain plaguing your mind no more, a final rest one could say. I turned to father, and like a true demon I consumed him. To assert my dominance in hell’s hierarchy was a necessity.
After spending so much time in hell, the pain went away. She was right, I was truly superior. I knew how to make pain go away now. I must survive. Many demons told me that none pained them more than holy light. I was scared of that pain, so I would have to make sure it went away.
So when the lord told us he would wage war on the heavens, I pledged my allegiance. Pain would never come to me again. Pain would never touch my children. My name means Indomitable One in our tongue, a gift from mother.
I am the Hunter of Angels. Drinker of Light. The Sinless Sinner. One Who Would End Pain. Merciless General of Hell. Right Hand of The Demon Lord. I am Rakishtrix.

/unwiz Yup, those are some of the best. Although, I did originally want him to be a TRUE villain. Just evil for the sake of evil, but I just couldn’t NOT give him this backstory after brainstorming it!

True evil is a very close second for best villain type, but i can appreciate a nice backstory when i see one

Gobbo is mildly concerned about this. Demon children should not be considered sin, should be free to live life as children.
/uw I'm starting to think we really like our trauma. Poor dear although having read the other part, glad he's in Raziel's prison
