 +//The charismatic and manipulative Hellspeakers serve Moloch as they slip about the battlefield, coercing enemies into becoming unwitting allies. Moloch rules Styx, the City of Lies, but his reach extends far beyond it . Hell’s greatest politicians and diplomats rise to prominence through Moloch’s subtle manipulations . They follow him with great loyalty, for they know they are nothing without him—and thus his power echoes through all of Hell. \\ Moloch’s illriggers are silver-tongued enchanters, lulling his foes to complacency with sorcery and subterfuge until they wake and find themselves under the command of the Order of Desolation . These Hellspeakers train in the art known as the Red Cant or Hell’s Cant . By understanding their enemy and through weaving subtle sorceries into normal speech, Hellspeakers can make their foes feel, think, or do nearly anything to accelerate Hell’s victory . Across the timescape, Hellspeakers enjoy a reputation as smiling rogues and swashbuckling villains . An asset in any negotiation, Hellspeakers know that in a world of lies, the truth can be as potent a weapon as steel.//

-</WRAP> +//The heavily armored death troopers of Hell, Painkillers serve Dispater, leading from the front of every major infernal battle. Dispater rules Dis, the City of War . When Hell invades another world, Dispater’s army does the f ighting and dying . His Painkillers are master strategists who lead from the front, inspiring terror and awe in their soldiers . The imperious Painkillers are full of pride and hubris, and they often obsess over their personal appearance . \\ Though among the most chivalrous of the illriggers, a Painkiller’s gallantry is twisted . They accept and honor challenges to single combat, and swiftly punish any who try to interfere—but if losing, they don’t hesitate to cheat, and if winning, they arrogantly toy with an enemy before finishing them . In a moment of weakness or desperation, a ruler in another world might see their army facing certain defeat and call on Dispater . Ever eager to sow strife and discord, Dispater often responds to these pleas by sending a Painkiller to lead the desperate ruler’s armies. //

-</WRAP>+//Architects of Ruin are cool and calculating arcane knights who serve Asmodeus, deploying spells, steel, and subterfuge to win at any cost. Asmodeus rules Acheron, the City of Fear . His illriggers scour the timescape, collecting secrets and spells designed to deceive and terrify his opponents . The war he fights against the other archdevils is one of deception and information . His Architects of Ruin work to make Hell’s enemies seem outnumbered and outmaneuvered . These illriggers are skillful spellblades on the battlefield, though some employ tactics such as research, infiltration, and propaganda to play mind games with their quarry . When an Architect of Ruin finally confronts an enemy, the advantage is theirs—they have studied, prepared, and gripped fate within their gauntlet, forcing it to favor them . They hungrily seek the dark arts to arm both themselves and Asmodeus with the impossible.//

 +//The blood-knights of Hell, Sanguine Knights serve Sutekh, Lord of Blood. Their sorceries drain their enemies’ life force, pouring this stolen vitality into infernal rituals to turn the tide of battle. \\ Sutekh rules Naraka, the City of Blood . Recognized as the greatest sorcerer in hell, he carries the title of High Sanguinary and rules from the Temple of Vitality . He is a master of blood magic, and his inner circle of priests and wizards are the Bloodliches, undead spellcasters whose corporeal forms turned to ash centuries ago and whose bodies are crafted from solid blood . Sutekh’s illriggers all belong to a cult known as the Chalice of Vitality . Knights of the Chalice drink deeply of their enemies’ essence, draining it to power their magics . Other members of the Order of Desecration fear that the Sanguine Knights seek more than Sutekh’s mere ascension to the Throne of Hell; some whisper that the Chalice secretly schemes to make Sutekh a god . This would, of course, be treason. //

-</WRAP>+//The hidden assassins of Hell, Shadowmasters serve Belial and excel at stealth and disguise. Belial rules Gehennom, the City of Darkness. He strives to rule Hell through poison, torture, and assassination. \\ His illriggers strike from the shadows or use deception to earn high-ranking positions close to powerful rulers . Many Shadowmasters run networks of spies and assassins who have no idea of the infernal provenance of their leader . Shadowmasters are sworn not to reveal their true allegiance, and if need be, they must take their own lives to fulfill this oath . Many Shadowmasters prepare elaborate plans for their own assassination so that, should they risk discovery, their assassination obscures the truth . Of course, these killers never learn they were hired by their deceased target. //
