Hello everyone!
I'm currently trying to collect as much information on the demon races as I can, and I was wondering where in the game it explicitly states that the Kal'gerion demons are actually infernals. I've searched around, but beyond a vague allusion in Palkeera's memory, I haven't found anything confirming their infernal-ness.
Based on their physical traits and behaviors, I am much more inclined to believe that they are avernic demons, seeing as they share the body structure and general violent culture of avernic demons, and since the massive schism between avernic and chthonian demons would suggest that infernals are also bound to be significantly different than the other two.
Here's what I know:
Avernic Demons
- Brawny build, often very tall, ressemble traditional European "demonic" depictions.
- Culture glorifies war, always very aggressive and destructive.
- They explode on death, likely why Chthonians can't eat them.
- Barbaric tone...
Chthonian Demons
- Bulbous build, lots of tentacles and fleshy bits, Lovecraftian in appearance.
- Culture is decadent and bureaucratic, like the worst parts of Rome.
- Can eat other beings to gain their power - but NOT avernic demons.
- They do NOT explode on death. Instead, they disintegrate calmly.
- Very Latin...
Infernal Demons
- We don't know what they look like...
- We don't know what they think like...
- We don't know their vibe...
Notice that Kal'ger and his associates match the avernic description almost perfectly. They are brawny, glorify violence (to the point of actually annoying Bilrach), they explode on death, and resemble traditional European depictions of demons. Now, granted, I could be miserably wrong about this, so if you do have proof of their infernal lineage, please let me know.
