It contrasts devils’ lawful evil politics in Baator with demons’ chaotic evil violence in the Abyss, and explains why an openly fiendish warlock draws hostility from common folk and can escalate danger in taverns or streets. It then details specific patrons, including Mazgin Cultcrusher and Xonogoth, Chief Accountant, with histories and pact goals for destroying cults or advancing wealth.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/","Story & Novel",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/the-pact-of-the-fiend-devils-being-a-fiendish-warlock/513798/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/the-pact-of-the-fiend-devils-being-a-fiendish-warlock/513798.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"The weather in my hometown","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-28","2026-10-06",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",10,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"How do devils differ from demons in alignment and behavior?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"Devils embody lawful evil and operate through cruelty mixed with politics and bureaucracy.

The Nine Hells of Baator, the realm where devils thrive is replete with cruelty, evil, and of course, politics. The cutthroat world of Hell's politics is full of documents and signatures. This is where mortals come in. Through trickery or otherwise, Devils are able to secure aid from mortals. Neither devils nor demons can enter the Material Plane unless they are summoned, so they must find alternatives to push their vile goals forward. Devils pacts are always clear and carefully worded, so that loopholes by the author are always possible. A quick blood signature, and their new mortal servant is off to the races. While all devils dream of power in other realms, they must first deal with the slavering threat on their doorstep; demons.  \nDemons  \nWhile devils exude the alignment of lawful evil, demons display chaotic evil to its highest extent. Where devils coolly back stab each other to get up the bureaucratic hierarchy of the Nine Hells, demons will simply attack one another for raw physical power. Demons reside in the Abyss, a chaotic realm of infinite layers, each ruled over by a cruel and violent demon lord. Demons are typically too preoccupied with the constant Blood War against the devils, but some have higher aims of establishing cults of their own, or creating strongholds on the Prime Material Plane.  \nBeing a fiendish warlock  \nAs is not hard to guess, just about every NPC in the Forgotten Realms despises fiends, and for good reason. An openly fiendish warlock will turn heads in any bar or tavern, and possibly instigate violence. This is ESSENTIAL for players to understand. If they suddenly are attacked in an alleyway and think that the DM is being mean to them, an I-told-you-so must be in order. It is also extremely important for DM's to understand this and refrain from holding back on what dangers may lurk in good civilization for the warlock PC.  \n3  \nThis is unofficial Fan Content permitted under the Fan Content Policy.

He serves Zariel, Archduchess of the layer of Avernus. When not managing his warlocks, Mazgin likes to spend his time slaughtering demon hordes on the frontlines of the Blood War.  \nHistory  \n\n| Mazgin Cultcrusher was a human paladin of Torm in his past life. Mazgin truly believed injustice, but was lethally overzealous and arguably sadistic in his application of justice. Seeing the horror done in his name, Torm removed Mazgin's powers and instructed his priests to prosecute Mazgin for his crimes. Mazgin was soon put to death, and arrived on the hellish plane of Avernus.\u003Cbr>He arrived as a lowly lemure, like all do. His unending zeal allowed him to work up to a pit fiend and gain the notice of Zariel, who noted his combat prowess, and named him a top lieutenant.\u003Cbr>Goals of Mazgin Cultcrusher |\n| --- |\n| Unlike most devil","cbCaidoM3nHtk7MY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidoM3nHtk7MY","pdf",1532874,"English","# The Pact of the Fiend\n## Devils\n## Demons\n## Being a fiendish warlock\n# Mazgin Cultcrusher\n## History\n## Goals of Mazgin Cultcrusher\n## Mazgin Cultcrusher Pact\n# Xonogoth, Chief Accountant\n## History\n## Goals of Xonogoth, Chief Accountant","[{\"question\":\"How do devils differ from demons in alignment and behavior?\",\"answer\":\"Devils embody lawful evil and operate through cruelty mixed with politics and bureaucracy.
