Malroth

The Prince of Chaos Malroth

Malroth is a powerful and malevolent being, known as the archdemon and the All-Shadow. Malroth is a significant figure in the world of Aeloria and a powerful demon lord. According to mythology, he is considered the first demon to have ever existed, the avatar of Satan, created from the malevolent soul of Cain, who infamously committed the first act of murder in mortal history. As a demon lord, Malroth resides in the deepest pits of Hell, where he rules over legions of malevolent entities. His domain extends to the Plane of Darkness, known as Svartalfheim, where he exerts his malevolence and influences the actions of other dark creatures.   Being an incarnation of pure evil, Malroth embodies the sinister and malicious aspects of demonkind. He revels in chaos, destruction, and the corruption of mortal souls. His immense power stems from the malevolent energy that flows through the realms of Hell and Svartalfheim, granting him abilities that are both formidable and fearsome. Over time, Malroth has grown in strength and influence, amassing followers and lesser demons who bend to his will.    His goal is to challenge the authority of the gods and overthrow the divine order, seeking to sow discord and darkness throughout the mortal realms. While demons are often depicted as grotesque and terrifying creatures, Malroth's appearance remains shrouded in mystery, as descriptions vary across different myths and tales. Some tales depict him with imposing horns, bat-like wings, and eyes that gleam with malevolence, while others describe him as a shadowy pale skinned figure, almost seductively beautiful

Personal history

According to legend, Malroth's origin can be traced back to the malevolent soul of Cain, the ancient figure infamous for committing the first act of murder by killing his own brother, Abel. Cain was said to have been born as Satan's human incarnation, an avatar of pure evil. After Cain's death, his malevolence and wickedness festered and intensified, eventually culminating in the creation of the first demon - Malroth.    This demonic incarnation emerged as a malevolent force, embodying all the darkness and evil that had consumed Cain's soul. With his genesis, the realms of darkness and chaos gained a formidable entity to challenge the divine order. As the first demon, Malroth's power grew exponentially as he took residence in the deepest and darkest pits of Hell, a malevolent plane teeming with maleficent beings. Here, he ruled over legions of lesser demons, commanding their loyalty and harnessing their strength to further his malevolent ambitions.   Throughout the ages, Malroth's malevolence extended beyond the confines of Hell. He traversed planes and realms, extending his influence to Svartalfheim, the Plane of Darkness, where his wickedness thrived and spread, corrupting all that he touched.

Sexuality

Malroth has no desire for sexual pleasure nor any passionate intimacy. He does, however, corrupt mortals with the sin of lust. He has also taken the forms of Succubi and Incubi in order to bring out lust upon mortals although he only uses them to spread sinful influence.

Morality & Philosophy

To Malroth, morality is a charming joke and as such holds no power over him. Malroth is driven solely by his vanity and lust for domination. The divine ways of the gods and the worlds they created are not of his nature. He is unbound by the virtues of chastity, temperance, charity, diligence, kindness, patience, and humility and rejects their graces. To Malroth the multiverse is an extention of the gods will and through his lense, his will is absent. This drove Malroth to create the seven deadly sins as a tool to bathe the multiverse in his essence. Malroth would only accept a world that rejects virtue and venerates his will.
