Infernals of Pain Infernals of Shame Infernals of Guilt

Creed Creed Creed

“Be human” “Uphold our legacy” “Rejoice”

Renowned for their demonic cruelty, members of the
House Black renounced their old ways and now try to live
the lives they choose, rather than continue on the path
chosen for them by the overlords of Hell. They assumed a
corporate-like style of leadership and aim to rediscover life
beyond pain and suffering.

The Human Connection
The descendants of the first mortal to ever be sentenced to
live in Hell, who eventually became demons themselves.
Now, the proud Infernals of Shame came back to the
mortal world, to reclaim all that has been taken from them.
To be a devoted member of the House is to always strive
for more, improve one’s standing, and accumulate power.
Custom
The Sacred Bond
While other Infernals tend to reminisce about their demonic
legacy and the horrors of Hell, House Joy has taken a
different approach. Rather than dwell in the past, the
Infernals of Guilt are focused on making up for the lost
time. They revel in the exciting experiences and pleasures
the Defiant world has to offer.
