Fierna - Archduke of Phlegethos
Fierna is the Archdevil of Lust and the Archduke of Phlegethos, the fourth layer of the Nine Hells, a position that she shares with her longtime consort Belial. Fierna is a confident and seductive devil, entrancing others with her charms, lowering the guards of those around her, leading to them making mistakes or even doing her bidding.
Fierna is an intelligent schemer and a master of emotional manipulation, quickly understanding a person's weakness and able to masterly perform her way into getting what she wants.
Fierna is also known to enjoy the act of seduction and rejection as much as physical pleasure, enjoying playing with the emotions of others. She is famed for her exotic tastes and the debaucherous events held at her palace. She can commonly be found in the company of Succubi and Incubi, many of whom serve the Archdukes of Phlegethos.
Apperance
Fierna is a feminine presenting humanoid, an incredibly beautiful and elegant figure with red skin, long black hair, smouldering eyes, short horns, bat-like wings and a thin tail. She is commonly dressed in beautiful yet revealing garments, mixing displays of wealth, tight fitting leather and displays of skin.Belial & Fierna
Belial & Fierna are the only Archdevils able to share rulership over one of the layers of the Nine Hells, coming about under unique circumstances. Belial and Fierna were once rivals who were locked in a constant battle for control of Phlegethos, every year they would swap the title of Archduke after falling to the others' schemes. After a few hundred years this conflict would turn their hatred of each other into feelings of respect and admiration, and then eventually feelings of adoration. This would lead to both Devils coming to a truce, confessing their feelings to each other and agreeing to try and share control over Phlegethos. This unofficial agreement led to many conflicts early on in their relationship as only one of them could be recognised as Archduke at the time, creating a very unhealthy power dynamic in the relationship. Eventually they pleaded with Asmodeus to help them, who, fed up with the constant paperwork that came from the annual leadership change of Phlegethos, agreed to make them both Archdukes and joint rulers of Phlegethos. This increased the number of Archdukes from eight to nine and reduced the number of Duke positions from twenty four to twenty three in the process, with the clause that if either Belial or Fierna were killed or demoted the positions would be referred. While the couple has had many ups and downs over the centuries, from violent disagreements to attempted murder, they still maintain a strong bond and joint control over Phlegethos, despite the many attempts of others to break them apart.
