Devils: I want you under my foot
Demons: I'll crush you under my foot
i chose to see GOd in everything
And Jesus
lol this comment saved me from watching the whole video
Mmm, Kinky

Devils: I will break your mind
Demons: I will break your body
"Squished like a bug", or like an 11-days-old kobold who decides to throw a bag of bees at a fire giant's face.
Rest in Peace, Spurt.
It was more like a sticky goo than pieces, but Spurt probably doesn't care either way.
With that voice he'd have probably turned out to become a famous singer.
Decide over his destiny in Idle Champions of the forgotten realm.

i guess Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow lost my login password. I would love any tips you can give me!
@Gael Cullen Instablaster :)
@Raphael Aryan i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im trying it out now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
CHRIS: "The more you have underneath you, the better you feel."
TODD: "I know some people like this!"
CHRIS: [Rubs nose.]
I think this might become a best seller book for d&d
I agree, I think they have an amazon top seller on their hands.
A Aron
You replied to yourself man haha
The cool thing about Graz’zt is that he was a Devil, son of Asmodeus in fact! He shares his father’s goals of commanding both the Abyss and the 9 Hells, and he is probably the most likely to succeed due to having a foot in both doors
The easy way to keep the difference straight:
Devils want to rule the universe.
Demons want to destroy it.
Lol
Devil is only one Lucifer
christians don't even know what their own devil is smh
@@Majiinsit’s all fictional anyway. This is just more recent lore.
@@Majiinsthis isn't real life bro and Lucifer is an angel a fallen one nor is Lucifer his real name his angelic name is Halel. Lucifer is the Latin name for crescent moon morning star. Devil is an ambiguous title. Devil Satan the serpent the dragon Lucifer Apollyon Zeus. Some of these titles are for Lucifer and some are titles for Satans or the leader of the watchers etc. Not every name on here is referring to Lucifer himself
From dungeons and dragons to Deals and Devils
Characters that might attack arch-devils.......Evelyn!
I seriously hope they stat out Bel. My main go to character to play is one of his sons that got banished from Baator and got his infernal rank stripped for trying to go against Zariel.
I've got stats for Zariel, now I need stats for dear old dad!
I'm curious to see whether or not Tiamat is still camping out in Avernus. Of course, that might only be 2nd ed. lore.
She most definitely is. Or at the very least her servant Arhkan the Cruel is camped out there. Joe Manganiello mentioned it during the live event.
I thought that was in Exandria (Matthew mercer’s homebrew setting)
@@johnlavery3433 yeah. Joe Manganiello played him on critical role. But Arhkan was Joe's character for a long time. When he collaborated for the setting they added his character to lore
Tiamat is still officially down there. It would probably be best not to go anywhere near her domain.
Looks like we need to write in a Mortals Appreciation Day and a Devils Appreciation Day.
Devils: Let's experiment on humans...
Demons: ..With BBQ Sauce
So Devils are practicing MLM?
that's absolutely correct. very accurate description. works same way.
MLM?
"Multi-level Marketing"
I always felt to distinguish them more, I would want devils to be fallen angels touched with infernal magic. There are natural devils and there's a few fallen angels as devils, but I think them being former angels would distinguish them more. Not to mention, I would like it if devils looked more like angels and less monstrous like demons, to further distinguish them, and them being former angels would explain why they are still lawful, even though they are evil.
Lawful is wanting to stabilize reality, chaotic is wanting to change it.
The devil is in the details
The Devils did not like my chaotic good sorcerer.
You don't have to get far under an arch devel's skin before he will squish you..... or just tell you that he will be happy to let you die without his help.
I don't think you could play as a devil in dnd, but I would love to play as a Chaotic Good devil who thinks his actions are Lawful Evil but everyone either plays along with his delusions or rock his world in.
I need this book
Devils like to torture and enslave.
Demons like to kill and destroy.
From these videos, I figured out that the DM could return as a Devil and slay my brother
What exactly makes it so that demons so outnumber the devils?
Devils come from corrupted souls of humanoid beings from the prime materialplant, while demons spawn from I believe, the dark shard which created the abyss and continuously spews demons randomly all the time.
Devils swell ranks by using corrupted souls, which are a finite resource they get from making deals. Demons will continually spawn from the abyss no matter what due to the presence of the dark shard.
Also I don’t know about Devils, but if a demon is killed outside of the abyss, it’s soul will be brought back to its home plane and it will regenerate its body. The only way to truly destroy a demon is by killing it in the abyss.
the D&D gods created Order out of Chaos, thus making the prime material and everything in it - including humans. The demons are the counter force of equal power pushing back. Keeping order out of chaos is constant effort, so the gods assigned a special task force for this, which became the devils.
In simple terms Demons prefer quantity, while Devils prefer quality.
The Abyss can make demons with or without souls, while the Nine Hells need souls to make devils.
I think the shard mentioned by Ryder Igo and JJwP is strictly fourth-edition Nentir Vale lore.
And yes, the only way to permanently slay a devil is to do so in the Nine Hells.
No idea where A Aron got what they said from.
Devils want your mind
Demons want your body
1:28 -written by Dr. J.Peterson
All devils want is to rise to the top of the dominance hierarchy, which just so happens to actually be a competence hierarchy. And it's no joke, man. The Nine Hells are a dark place.
The nine hells: a multiverse equivalent MLM
I can't wait to play my lawful good Paladin.
Do us a favour and tell us how long it takes until he goes blackguard
Is the door in every video?
Hasn't been that long ago that people were accusing D&D as being a gateway into devil worship. Seems kind of odd for them to go there willingly right as the game is experiencing a surge in popularity.
40 years ago is not that long?
The difference between an imp and demon?
devil don't care about harming you himself, he wants to make you harm yourself.
What’s the sauce for the thumbnail pic?
Oathbreakers are at home in Avernus
Brains vs Brawn
Demons are chaotic evil and devils are lawful evil.
Often the paladin & their order are amidst evil concerning evil.
Choose, Devil or Demon
Hell is like an MLM. Think Amway, but more evil.
So lot's of "Boss Bitches" in hell then?
So basically demons are worse than devils
You mean better
demons are just way of god showing the devil what happen without balance, like hell.
Did somebody say Demons?!?
My brother is trying to destroy my friends campain by TRANSFORMING the DM into a creature and killing him. Is it possible?
In short, devils are the good guys 😂
But the question is who is more powerful?
Like in 1 to 1 fight?
Well there are many types of demons and devils, with various powers and challenge ratings. We can't really make estimates using the Monster's manual, because we don't know how many of a given sort there is. A 1 to 1 fight could be won by either, depending of their types and their luck.
The thing is, demons are more numerous than devils, so they should be able to outnumber them. But devils are very organised while demons don't care about what their allies are doing and could even stab them in the back. So a fight between two groups of equal size would likely lead to a victory of the devils, because they know how to fight together and how to ambush their foes.
What demon lords are in the module
danny devito yeenghou at least. and one more i thibk
Devil is only one
Demons are just a dream of an beholder god....hehehe
Meh... back in my day, devils wanted domination
Demons wanted to corrupt and twist you
And Daemons wanted to eat the multiverse
"Daemons" are now called Yugoloths, they're out for money and personal gain.
Isnt it the Devil? Or is There more than 1 SATAN???
I'd rather see it all burn then control it
A simplified way is. Devils are selfish in a lawful way. Demons are selfish in a chaotic way. Demons arent always completely random. They have agendas it just changes up on you. Devils have a plan but its usually a set in stone agenda. Its always in their favor tho. Hence the selfish way. Demons changes depending on their mood or your usefulness too. Demons dont need you. They want you,desire you. For nothing more than entertainment. Devils need you to further their goals. Again chaos vs law axis. But this vid seems too black n white. There is more complexities in the law vs chaos axis. Like anything.
demons is the way of god showing the devil why it's important that he(god) is around. the way you describe it , seems to me there is something the devil afraid from after all... demons. fighting them is nice word, but fear from them and their random actions and their lack of morals is really what you ment. the devil may hate god's work and he trying to destroy it with his tactics, but he is not afraid from it...but he do afraid from the idea of demons taking over, probably from selfish reasons as he deliver selfish wishes.
why i say selfish?
people who call for him call for him because something they want, they never call him when they want their love ones to be save, for this they call god.
If the devils want souls to make devils to fight off the demons... Im in...
Buuut i dont want to corrupt people...i want to be the devil without selling my soul...
I just want to help... If i have to do evil deeds.... im out
Fascinating. I was raised KJV-only and was recently SHOCKED to realize the KJV does not use the word 'demon'. King James I wrote the book "Demonology" BEFORE he created the KJV, yet the KJV does NOT use the word 'demon'!
Devil: Lawful Evil
Demons: Chaotic Evil
Rip and tear
Demons can fly
Devils can't fly
Horned devil. Pit fiend. Spined devil.
Don't demons serve Devils?
Not in d&d there separate races. Demons are like ted bundy and devils are like Hitler.. both incredibly evil but very different at the same time..
@@darksoulsss2618 well aren't most armies commanded by Devils are filled with Demons?
And Demons rarely rule a realm in Hell correct?
@@Thetailofthetrident in most mythology yes.. but it's different in d&d demons rule over a plan called the abyss and devils rule over hell.. demons just want to destroy at random and devils want to control everything. there similar in a lot of ways yes in appearance and there opposition to everything that is good but its how they want to destroy and cause suffering is what's so different and why they hate each other....
