Hell
The plane of Hell is a single sprawling plane, divided into spheres of influence between the Devil lords that inhabit it and the Queen of Hell herself. Hell is divided up between the 7 Devil Lords; Pride, Sloth, Gluttony, Greed, Envy, Wrath, and Lust. Each of these Lords controls an expanse of the plane, whether that takes the form of a city, a wasteland, or something in between. Their areas of influence form a circle around the domain of the Queen of Hell, who rules from her palace at the center of Hell. Each of the 7 Devil Lords vie for power against each other and against their Queen, hoping to one day take her place. Pride rules at the northernmost point of Hell, and directly to the east is Sloth, and so on. Each area reflects its Lord in some capacity, and all are equally inhospitable and miserable to most creatures.
Geography
Palace of the Hellqueen: The Lawful Evil Goddess Queen of Hell's residence is an opulent gothic palace the size of a , spanning miles. Few know anything substantial about the Queen, or what goes on inside her gates, as she has been largely quiet since creating her Devil Lords.
River Styx:
Pride: Pride lives in the City of Mirrors, a sprawling urban expanse that covers much of Hell's northern mountains. The City is aptly named, as all its building materials are reflective, making stealth incredibly difficult and driving many mortals insane with optical illusions. Pride's home sits atop a mountain peak, overlooking her City. Pride herself usually takes the form of a stern elven woman, and her true form is rarely seen.
Sloth: Nestled in the valley between the domains of Pride and Gluttony, Sloth's home is all pillars of stone and emptiness, as nobody there has ever tried to build anything. The bleak and inhospitable environment of Hell is the clearest here. Staying too long can result in extreme exhaustion as the heavy air pushes your body to its limits and it is impossible to find any respite from the elements. The heat is unbearable, the wind, when it blows, bites at skin, the water bubbles like acid. Everywhere you go in the domain of sloth there is a new horror to uncover, but not a soul who seems to care. There are no shortage of Devils in this area, but none seem bothered by anything around them. Sloth is the least interested in the Blood War or in political schemes of any of the Devil Lords.

Fauna & Flora
Hell is dominated by devils, with smaller populations of lawful evil creatures spread throughout the plane. Inimical to most types of life, other creatures besides devils tend to not last long, and are usually either slaves to devil masters or those with strong enough wills to resist them. Yugoloths of all varieties have a presence, as do the demon stragglers of failed invasions out of the Abyss. Each Devil Lord styles their domain to their own liking, which can have radical effects on the inhabitants therein.
