''' | '''Nessus '''(also called '''Bolgia''') is characterized by flaming landscapes and rivers of lava emerging from limitless plains of volcanoes. Jagged rocky peaks and steep drops into molten lakes provided a treacherous terrain for any creature without the ability to fly. For this reason, almost every resident of Nessus could fly safely around the flaming land. | ||

[[Asmodeus]], after leaving Nessus to rule Hellmar, built a massive citadel of magma and steel for his new seat as archdevil over the realm. The citadel was built alongside a new type of devil known as an '''Air Siren, '''who''' '''sing a horrid song so unholy that the air in the chamber itself flees, creating an unbreathable vacuum in whatever room the siren sings in. | [[Asmodeus]], after leaving Nessus to rule Hellmar, built a massive citadel of magma and steel for his new seat as archdevil over the realm.
