Default Re: Dominions history?

Kurgi is a name I made up for an unspecified entity originally used for the oathrod description. I intentionaly left the nature of Kurgi unspecified when I wrote it, and was actually a little peeved when Kristoffer made a scenario with a Harvester of Sorrows named Kurgi for dom1.

Most but not all names for demons and Abysians are names dug up from various second hand sources on demonology. If you look around you should be able to dig them up. The attributes of the named devils in dominions correspond to some but not to a great degree to the traits attributed to them. The texts are for the most part not terribly informative on the nature relations or interests of the devils. Often they just state something like "Blah Blah Blah is a great prince that commands 30 legions. He appears as a red peacock or a furious one legged King bearing a crown and riding a serpent. Blah Blag Blah has the power to cure or cause syphilis and is the patron of lewd music and licentious women." Most of it is dull, ridiculous and stupid. Unsuprisingly most of the devils can be called upon to inspire passion in women, I imagine they were the penis enlargment pills of their day.
