Head straight into it: Era of the Archdemons
This was my first IF and WIP about the archdemons and Lovecraftian gods. Well, it has returned but I deleted the files of the original so I’m rewriting all of it. I still remember the broad strokes so it may feel familiar nonetheless.
Synopsis:
After lucifer fell from heaven, he conquered hell and made the first demoness Lilith his betroved, creating three children. Archdemons. The essence of both archangel and demon fused into a new species potentially more dangerous than gods.
The first came Asmodeus, the Archdemon of Order & Chaos. Considered the most dangerous archdemon.
Then came Abaddon, the Archdemon of Life & Death. Cunning like her father and sadistic like her mother, she plays with the blueprint of life and the concept of death. Most unpredictable of the three.
Lastly came Astaroth, the Archdemon Sage. He has the wisdom, intelligence and curiosity of gods like Odin, Athena and Isis.
You are Asmodeus. Something or someone lures you back to earth. Figure out what it is on this journey into the unknown.

ROs
Isa Raubtier
Name: Isa Raubtier
Titles: Warrior Princess of Sol, Commander of the Dragoons, Former General of the Wild Hunt
Race: Elf (Elder blood)
Height: 5’7" (170 cm)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Age: Appears mid-20s (A couple centuries)
Isa was raised in Sol’s royal halls but trained in the outer territories among war camps and magic academies. She chose to live with the lower ranks.
After nearly a decade leading the Wild Hunt, scouting, killing, and dismantling threats to Sol, Isa was reassigned to open warfare as dragon sightings surged. She now commands the Dragoons, known for their sky-riding and dragon-slaying tactics.
A damsel in distress she is not and is willing to do what’s wrong for the right cause.
Jin Riesinger
Name: Jin Riesinger
Title: The Blue Exorcist
Race: Human (Cain’s descendent)
Height: 6’0" (183 cm)
Sexuality: Straight
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Age: Early 30s
Jin is from a family of exorcists descended from humanity’s first brother, Cain. His abilities came from within. As a teen, he single-handedly purged a ruined town of evil spirits, collapsing afterward while his soul-form loomed over him.
The Reisinger elders began to suspect his strength was not his own but the will of some ancient entity working through him. This earned him the unfortunate title Blue Exorcist, named after his soul form.
Jin embraced the role: clad in dark attire, inventing his own rituals and taking on the difficult purifications no other exorcist dared, carving out respect on his own terms.
Ariel
Name: Ariel
Title: The Angel of Nature
Race: Archangel
Height: 5’5" (165 cm)
Sexuality: Straight
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Age: Unknown
Ariel was not born of Earth nor even within the Heaven that governs it now, she was forged in the First Heaven, when the blueprint of creation was still being drafted.
She was one of God’s elemental curators, tasked with grounding spiritual law in living ecosystems. Her grace was woven into the DNA of life—flora, fauna, sky, sea and soil.
She is nature itself, unforgiving and nurturing, whichever the wind blows.
Simon Hideyoshi
Name: Simon Hideyoshi
Title: The Master Shapeshifter
Race: Kitsune (Beastkin, Hideyoshi Clan)
Height: 6’2" (188 cm)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Age: Appears late 20s (Actually early 90s)
Simon was born in the Bo Kingdom, a land known for its beastkin clans, feline, lupine, ursine. The Hideyoshi clan is a clan of ninjas in service to Sol, primarily The Wild Hunt King, Godwyn. They specialize in shapeshifting, creating fake identities to kill or spy on targets dictated by Godwyn.
Simon is the best of them, able to use shadow clones to make multiple unique identities of himself at once. Possibly the closest thing to omnipresent a mortal can be.
Roanoa
Name: Roanoa
Title: The Original Vampire, Eternal Bride of Asmodeus
Race: Vampire
Height: 5’10" (178 cm)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Alignment: Neutral Evil
Age: Unknown (post-Adamic)
Roanoa is an ancient figure whose existence predates recorded history. Once mortal, she possessed a piercing perception that allowed her to see Asmodeus for who he truly was, no matter the guise he wore.
They became each other’s first love, an eternal bond that is as destructive to those around them as it is unbreakable between them.
Through an archaic ritual older than arcane, she became the first vampire, defying death itself by becoming something entirely new.
AI Disclosure:
AI art is used and optional to see in game. I dont know how far I’ll go for commissioned art. I’ll start looking after chapter 6. Until then, this is what we got.
