Zuvem Nergalis
'Planter' of the Nergalids (the other two being the Grower and the Harvester); 'Gravedigger', 'Devil
Doom', 'Undertaker';
power focus or talisman: a spade;
devic protectorate: once ruled Grand Elysium, Elysian Fields, the
original Valhalla, in Sedon's stead;
may have co-ruled Satanwyck (Sedon's Temple) alongside Bouncing Belle (Sinistral Lust)
until the Unity of Chaos cathonitized him
(and her) during 'The 1000 Days of Disbelief';
seems to have been blamed for many of Smiler's
misdeeds over the centuries because trying to relocate and properly
kill Devil Doom obsesses Abe Chaos throughout
both 'Coueranna's Curse'
and 'The Volsung Variations';

Pyrame Silverstar
'The Perpetual
Presence', 'The Pauper Priestess', 'Egyptian', 'Sumerian'; Astroarche,
Queen of Courts; Queen Gomorrah to Sedon's King Sodom;
called the Pauper Priestess because she has no taliman to call her own and no protectorate to call her home; if she's priestess it's of Sedon, her forever mate;
after the ruination of the Upper Head in 4825 YD (rendering much of it the Ghostlands) she ceased living at the Grand Elysium pyramid, by far the largest on the Whole Earth;
Can often be found on the Prison Beach of Incain where she lives within, and controls, All the Invincible She-Sphinx;
associated, and for a long time interchangeable, with Primeval
Lilith, the Demon Queen of the Night;
as such the devic half-mother of innumerable mortal sedons or Sed-sons who are required to maintain the Cathonic Dome;
her origin found in 'The Trigregos Gambit';
got hold of Machine-Memory in 19/5908 with the result being the Trigon Triplets;
co-ruled the devic third of Crete as Queen Tanith to Sedon's (actually Smiler's) King Rhadamanthys from roughly
2000-2500 YD (2000-1500 BC) or until Novadev caused Stongyne to blow its heart into the sky;

power focus: sandstorm hourglass;
barren, has no known azuras;
(Appears in 'Helios on the Moon'
and, briefly, in both 'Feeling
Theocidal' and parts of 'The 1000 Days of Disbelief');
when brood sister Pyrame ruled the devic third of Crete as Queen Tanith, Cathune ruled Egypt from a base in Bubastis (hence her surname) as the Cat Queen consort to the Sun God (Ptah?), who might have been Thrygragos Mithras but could also have been Thrygragos Lazareme;
In 'Feeling Theocidal' she's connected to Mars Bellona, the Apocalyptic of War; however, she rejected him due to serial infidelities and became barren instead;
there's a photo essay on her here; there's also a shorter note on her here; |
Tralalorn
'White Dwarf'; Lost Lorna:
no protectorate of her own but, in 5980, she was most often found
on Apple Isle (Sedon's Human Eye-Isle on a map of the Hidden Headworld);
might not be a devil;
origin found in 'The Trigregos Gambit'
but also hinted at in 'Feeling
Theocidal';
quotes from Feel Theo re Trala and her 3-headed Stynx of
a chimera, circa 4376, are preserved here and here;
theory that Trala was, as per here,
the Eden Nightingale Mama Rhea (unless it was the Pyrame/Lilith/Memory Miracle Maenad)
sacrificed in the Totem Pool in April/Antheal 19/5916 has never been
confirmed;
what she did at Pyrame/Lilith's
bidding on the 25th of Tantalar 5921 is preserved here;

his story is told in 'Feeling Theocidal'
and repeated in 'The 1000 Days of Disbelief';

Featured throughout the PHANTACEA comic
book series, except for pH-1, and 'The Trigregos Gambit';
appeared in the Faerie Garden during 'The
War of the Apocalyptics';

Demogorgon (Lamia?)
'The Unnameable', 'The Conglomerate Deva'
a prisoner of All the Invincible Gynosphinx, off the Prison Beach
of Incain, since circa 725 PD (pre-Deluge or pre-Dome);
(Although Lamia probably was one of the as-yet-unnamed Master
Devas who joined Thrygragos Lazareme's Expeditionary Party in 725
YD; Demogorgon might not be a devil any more than Pyrame or Tralalorn;
like them, her origin is found in both versions 'The Trigregos Gambit';
