{{Infobox_character|affilliation=[[The Ten Hells]]|name={{PAGENAME}}|image=Zariel.png|alias=The Dark Angel|species=[[Devil]]|gender=Female (she/her)}}

'''{{PAGENAME}} '''is an [[Archdevil]] and the Second Ruler of [[Duumal]], the First Layer of [[The Ten Hells]].

== History ==
Zariel's documented presence in [[The Quelmar Realm|Quelmar]] began with her as the ruler of Duumal up until 246 [[BR]] when she was dethroned at the end of the [[The Infernal Emergence#The First Emergence (181-246 BR)|First Infernal Emergence]] and imprisoned inside a magma-filled demiplane of [[Carceri]]. She would remain there until 750 BR when [[Leif Gladefel|Leif]], [[Mireille Daphnes Nohansen|Mireille]], [[Verglas]], and Bowz—adventurers from [[Icewind Dale]]—stumbled into a teleportation circle located in the necropolis of [[Ythrin]], which transported them to the demiplane where Zariel had been imprisoned. Upon discovering the intrusion, Zariel sent her winged minions to kidnap Bowz—Verglas' baby [[Dragon Turtle]] ward—and forced the adventurers to watch as she used Bowz as the key in a ritual to escape her imprisonment. The ritual left Bowz with a tattooed glyph on his shoulder and Zariel successfully fled to the [[The Quelmar Realm|Material Plane]].

Following her escape, Zariel began planting the seeds of her plans to raise an army who would fight for her in the ongoing [[The Blood War|Blood War]] between [[Devil|Devils]] and [[Demon|Demons]]—working primarily in [[Pteris]] to corrupt mortal bloodlines with her [[Devil|Infernal]] influence using contracts and blood pacts. Her efforts gave rise to several generations of [[Tiefling|Tieflings]] in Pteris owing their [[Devil|Internal]] heritage to Zariel, due to a relative who made a pact with her at some point in their bloodlines. Many of these Tieflings—revolting against the mortal society which feared and excluded them—joined Zariel's army in The Ten Hells, whereas some—such as [[Maverick]] the social worker—found other callings in life which helped them to persevere in spite of the discrimination they frequently faced.
