Graz'zt is a powerful Demon Lord from the Abyss and is the prince of pleasure, decadence, and the perverse corruption of authority. Before becoming a Demon they were a Devil from the Ten Hells, but now they rule multiple layers of the Abyss.

Physical Appearance

Graz'zt is a tall and strikingly handsome Demon Lord. He wears thin and elegant open robes with well built muscles that looked as if they had been carved from stone. On his shoulders he wears a dark pauldron made of abyssal metal that seeps with liquid suffering. His skin shines like polished purple obsidian and his eyes sparkle with a verdant green light. Each hand and each foot hold six digits, and his head is crowned with six horns half hidden in short black hair. His face is angular with pointed elven ears, handsome enough that if it wasn't for the rest of his, one might mistake him for an angel.

Personality

Graz’zt is the embodiment of dark charisma, a creature of silken words and wicked ambition whose every gesture exudes confidence, desire, and control, a demeanor more like a devil compared to any other demon. Over his hordes in the Abyss, he rules through charm and intellect, preferring to twist hearts and minds rather than crush them. He views power as an art form, a game of influence and indulgence where pleasure, pain, and loyalty blur together into one intoxicating mix. Graz’zt’s arrogance is legendary, born from the belief that all beings, mortal or divine, can be swayed by desire if he only learns the right temptation to offer.

He refuses to let himself be ruled by others and will fight ferociously if any try to bind him by force. His ultimate goal is to one day subjugate the Abyss and claim the title of "Prince of Demons" to make sure there are none that can rise above him. But even with all his bravado and his desire for pleasure, for certain unique beings, Graz'zt holds a weakness of the heart. Graz'zt is no stranger to taking on lovers as he is a true curator of the flesh, but on rare instances, there have been cases where Graz'zt has come to care for certain people in ways that are romantic rather then sexual, a true rarity among demons.

History

Graz'zt was one a Devil who commanded vast infernal legions in the everlasting Blood War. But after countless centuries of fighting, Graz'zt tired of taking orders from others, and instead wished to simply indulge in all his sinful desires. Graz'zt would escape into the Abyss and become a Demon Lord, establishing himself as a powerful rival to both Orcus and the Demogorgon.

It is currently unknown when and where Graz'zt emerged during the Demonic Infiltration.

Abyssal Realm

Graz'zt controls multiple levels of the Abyss and has turned them into realms of sin and pleasure. Along with powerful demonic warriors under his command, his realm is populated by many incubi sucubi, Mariliths, Lamias, and Cambions all continually engaging in their most twisted desires. Graz'zt's own palace in an endless raging orgy with the Dark Lord of pleasures at its center.

Languages

It is known that Graz'zt can speak Abyssal, Common, and Infernal, but he may know many more languages beyond that.

Powers and Abilities

He is exceptionally fast and strong, able to keep up with demons and monsters ten times his size and augments himself further with an assortment of magical tools including a cloak of displacement.
