Stolas

- - - - -

- - Stolas' Childhood - -

Something you have to note about Hell is that there are two major types of demons: Actual demons and fallen angels. True infernal demons have existed in Hell since it popped into existence. Stolas is one of those true demons. Coming from a rich family of avian demons of the corvidae variety, Stolas was pretty much just your average demon. As a youngster he loved to collect stones and thoroughly enjoyed stargazing. Flowers also caught his eye given how pretty and nice they were. They also attracted butterflies which were simply beautiful. Stolas had a rather uneventful childhood up until Zas and Cynassa entered his life.

Zas was a fallen angel who was new to Hell and Cynassa was a young demon who had befriended him. Stolas was at the park when he noticed the two being loud and rowdy. Fearing for the gardens of the park, he went up to the two and told them to be careful. Zas asked why, so Stolas showed them the gardens full of gorgeous flowers. Having flashbacks to his first childhood in Heaven, Zas accepted this and asked Stolas about what flowers were what flowers. Hell definitely had different flora compared to Heaven. Stolas was delighted to tell Zas everything he knew.

The next time Stolas saw Zas and Cynassa was at the Grand infernal Library. He was returning some books while the two were knee deep in a book about the stones and gems of Hell. What a coincidence as Stolas loved studying mineralogy. Naturally he greeted the two and they just so happened to need his help. Zas was a bit confused as some of the stones and gems of Hell were very similar to ones he had found in Heaven. Stolas actually wasn't too sure about Heaven's rocks, but he was going to help regardless. It was at this point Zas and Cynassa realized they should probably befriend Stolas as he was kind, helpful... and very smart. After getting to the end of the book, the two boys asked if they could be friends. Stolas was elated as no one had been this forward with him. He happily accepted. Naturally Stolas had to bring Zas and Cynassa over to his family's mansion. He got the okay and the three were off.

Stolas' family were thrilled to hear that Stolas had finally made some friends. Of course his mother and father were shocked to see that one of them was Fallen Angel Zas... Zas was actually a bit intimidated as Stolas' parents were very powerful demons, he could sense it. It was like being in the presence of an archangel back in Heaven... except Zas was NOT on equal footing with these demons. Suffice it to say he was on his best behavior, which caught Cynassa a bit off guard. Stolas was insistent that his new friends spend the night and they accepted.

It was a very fun night as Stolas naturally had a lot of toys, video games, board games, and movies. Zas, Cynassa, and Stolas just went together, like they were meant to be friends. This friendship would instill a newfound confidence in Stolas that prompted him to really pursue his interests. He would pursue Astronomy, Mineralogy, and Herbology, becoming an expert in these fields. He envied the confidence of Zas and Cynassa and resolved to be just like them. In his college years, Stolas would enroll in the prestigious Adonai University and would graduate with flying colors. Imagine the surprise of Zas and Cynassa when they were sitting in the audience and hearing their names in Stolas' graduation speech.

- - Adulthood - -

Adulthood proper was interesting for Stolas as he would end up earning his place in the pseudomonarchy of Hell as a prince. He had made several discoveries about how Hell's stars worked that elucidated Hell and even Heaven (for context, Hell exists within its own "universe," but it's a lot different from a standard universe). He would also end up discovering several secrets about certain ores and gems in Hell that allowed Hell to enhance their technology. Of course this level of success attracts attention and that resulted in him being summoned by King Solomon.

Of course Solomon was surprised by how cordial Stolas was and was questioning whether or not he had actually summoned a demon. As was to be expected Ornias was able to confirm that Stolas was indeed a demon. The baron had caught the prince's attention as Stolas realized Ornias was in deep trouble when he got back to Hell. After parting ways with Solomon, Stolas made a note of humanity and decided to shift part of his focus to Earth. He was summoned a handful of times of their millennia, one of the most noteworthy being an Irish wanderer named Ellen, during the medieval era.

- - About Stolas - -

Stolas isn't too spectacular personality-wise. As stated above, he is kind, friendly, and smart. Stolas' parents had instilled in him that treating people well was the way to go. You are nice to people and they will be nice to you. This was hard to understand at first, but Zas and Cynassa allowed Stolas to see what his parents meant. Of course Stolas would learn in time that some people will be mean to you no matter how well you treat them, so he amended his mentality a bit. For those who were foul, he would analyze what their issue was and try to form a solution around that... even if that meant running away. Upon advancing through school, Stolas got very invested in studying, even to the point where he rarely took breaks. In truth he wanted to play, explore, and find all sorts of stones and plants. He knew that education came first, however. How were you supposed to get the most out of existence if you knew nothing?

His education was long and grueling, but worth it in his eyes. Plus it made the rewards all the more sweeter. These days Stolas hasn't changed all that much. Of course he tempers his expectations and keeps his emotions in check. He had a tendency for emotional outburst during his teenage years. While he does look back on his childhood fondly, he doesn't miss every aspect of it. What he could definitely do without is random memories popping back into his head while he is trying to study or sleep. The issue is that it's always the embarrassing memories. To get these to go away, Stolas stops, rights the down memory, and ponders on what he could have done differently. As for social interactions, Stolas is one of the few demons where nobody has any complaints about him, aside from the fact that he's so dang clean cut.

The shadowy tail feathers are a manifestation of his...well... tail feathers. Much like how many demons have tails, Stolas has tail feathers since he is a raven based demon. They cannot be interacted with in human form, only fully manifesting in his demon form. Spectral feathers seem to fall from it and fade into nothing. If you manage to find one of his feathers and it does not vanish on you, consider yourself very lucky. Having these feathers is a great honor and is said to bring good fortune. They can also be a means of summoning Stolas if you procured the feather without stealing it.

Currently Stolas is studying the movement of the fire heart planet cluster, observed from the northern hemisphere of Infernal Terra (Hell Earth). It's quite an interesting batch of living planets and they seem to be very active in recent times.

Stolas Socializing

- - - - -

Something the demons of the pseudomonarchy of Hell love to do is attend social events. Usually these range from conferences to gala's in which the royalty discuss what they have been up to with whomever shows up. The turn-outs are fairly decent and are particularly active when the more famous arch demons show up. It's not mandatory to attend, but demons do look favorably upon those who socialize. Yes, the royalty of Hell like to brag, but they usually have something very interesting to tell people about.

Despite being prone to minor anxiety, Stolas will attend these events if he has something he deems interesting to talk about. Astronomy, herbology, and mineralogy can definitely be interesting, but everybody knows about this stuff. What Stolas prefers to talk about are his escapades. Things like meeting King Solomon, attending a grand event in the north eastern United States, visiting a magic guild within the realm known as The Unlight, and even visiting another timeline... speak of the Devil... Stolas here appears to be discussing another timeline he visited. This isn't unheard of as residents of Hell know how to get around the multiverse. It goes doubly so if they know how to access The Unlight.

As an aside, Stolas does have formal clothing... so-to-speak. These clothes are a manifestation of his power and can change based on what the situation calls for.

Pictured here in simple detail are three types of Demons native to Hell. Demons come in all shapes and colors and these are the three most common types outside of arch demons. Of interesting note as that typically special demons or Arch demons are usually the only ones to take on traditional "human" forms. They also are the most likely to have bizarre "demon" forms. The three types seen here are as follows:

Red Demons: The most common type of demon who have an affinity with Darkness.

Blue Demons: An uncommon type of demon who have an affinity with Light.

Gray Demons: A rare type of demon who have no affinity in particular. They also don't typically lean into Darkness or Light.

Not pictured here is another demon of note: Purple Demons. These are even rarer than Gray demons, so not much is known about them. It is said these demons have an affinity with chaos. It is unclear if an equivalent for Order exists. If they do, they would be even just as rare as the purple demons. Any demon of another/unique color usually fits into a role established by the 5 types listed here. Note that horns and tails are not exclusive to a particular type of demon. A demon's color also doesn't necessarily dictate their affinity. It just means they have an easier time gaining affinity with that alignment.

Aha! Not the Stolas you were expecting, was it? Yes, I have the right to make my own interpretation of the demon. Also mine is actually a raven-based demon... And a refined gentleman.

Anyways, these went through multiple iterations before I finally realized these should probably have backgrounds, especially the second picture. Plus I had to adjust the lore and dialogue. I did have fun designing the character, however. Black eyes like you see above was something new for me, but I wanted something unique.

Dan is Trigon

So! The Teen Titans had been chasing down a Cult lately, and they had finally managed to track down their main bases location.

Unfortunately, they got there just a bit too late and the Summoning Ritual they had been preforming was finished. The Being they had been calling crawled up and out of the Circle drawn in Blood on the floor.

And Raven felt her heart Stop. Because that Being crawling it's way out of the Summoning Circle looked almost exactly like her Father's True Form. But also different.

Where her Father's hair was a White Flame, this one's hair looked like Freshly Fallen Snow. Instead of her Father's Blood Red Skin, this being had Icy Blue Skin. And most strikingly, In place of her Father's Piercing Red Eyes, this being had Lazarus Green Eyes.

But even with all those changes, she could still the similarities in the Bone Structure, the shape of the Jaw, and most importantly the Untold Power radiating off of them.

Before they could react, the Being turned its attention to the Cultists.

"Who Dares Summon, the Ghost King?"

"We do, Out Lord Pariah Dark! We Beseech Thee, take this unclean world and tear it down! Cleanse the World of its Filth!"

"Oh Goddammit, not again." Said the Being, "Look, Pariah hasn't been in Power for Centuries. I, am Phantom. And I don't do the whole 'Destroy all Worlds' thing, you want your own constellation? I'm your guy. Otherwise? Bite it."

"Bu-But my Lord! We summoned you to-"

"Yeah how about no." Said the unimpressed God, "Here, let me send you guys Home. I'll give you guys some riches or something as compensation, but that's it."

And with that, the God snapped its fingers and the cultists disappeared.

"Now, who are you kids?" He turned to them.

Robin stepped forward, "We are the Teen Titans, and originally we came to stop them from Summoning you. Now, I honestly don't know what to do..."

"Oh, you guys are Heroes! That's interesting, I don't come across worlds with Heroes very often." Said the Ghost King, "The last one was the one with those Revengers or whatever they called themselves. The Spider Totem was fun to talk to, and Thor is always..."

As Phantom mumbled to himself, Raven stepped up. "King Phantom, I have a Question. Why do you resemble the true form or Trigon so closely? As his Daughter, I can recognize your similarities easily, and I was curious."

The King stopped dead.

"...daughter?"

"Oh, yes. Trigon is my father, though obviously I haven't talked to him recently." She explained.

"...that asshole." He said, "How could he not tell me I had a NIECE!?"

Wait what?

Disaster puppy checklist:

- Jobless

- Long depression naps

- Living out of car

- Changes hair color in desperate bid to feel SOMETHING

- “What’s the point of it all?”

- Still too scared to tell Azi how he feels because that relationship is literally THE ONLY THING he has left in this world

#guys I think he really is homeless #I hope I’m wrong #but the evidence is heartbreaking at this point #my demon there is a perfectly good bookshop for you to live in #good omens #crowley #aziraphale #ineffable husbands #aziracrow #good omens 2 #the raven’s musings

Prompt 76

Tim has no idea whether to laugh or cry. Bruce sends him away from Gotham to stay safe from Red Hood, yet who is standing there, in the Titan Tower, but the man himself. And if he was attacking or something then fine, he could deal with it. But no, the man is standing there, in the kitchen, cooking like it’s an everyday thing. Like sure he’s cooking angrily and Tim swears he can see some sort of eye glow in the helmet, but it’s not like he’s actually threatening any of them?? The literal crime lord has been hissing about them not having any food and being out of medical supplies and who decided to leave a bunch of teens alone to take care of themselves. Which. Rude, he’s been taking care of himself for years, and both Raven and Beast Boy have too! What type of scheme is this?!

Jason was going to go through with his attack on the Tower, he really was. But seriously, they didn’t even have any medical supplies, their cupboards were practically empty of food, and they didn’t even have any cleaning supplies. For fuck’s sake he’d gotten in so easily and it was a giant tower shaped like a T- everyone knew where it was! Honestly it’s not his fault the pit rage went from being pissed to the literal child- which uh, huh he’ll have to freak out about that later- to raging about how he took better care of the alley kids than the heroes were taking care of their kids so guess whose going to have to fucking step up!

#Jason: Damn you live like this #dc #dcu #prompts #jason is the angriest mother hen ever #No he doesn't know how the fuck he's coparenting with the pit rage #but he is- so fine #i hope you know that the titans are standing in the doorway or sitting awkwardly at the table with no idea who tf RH is #Tim is the only one who knows who tf he is since he's from Gotham and a bat lol #The next time someone attacks the tower they gonna get bullets to the knees and the most feral WTF IS THAT ever #if you wanna make it dcxdp maybe halfa jason #or at least hella liminal #i mean tim is from gotham; raven is half demon; beast boy is literally already ecto green; cyborg has alien tech fused with him #Jason & the pit: Wtf these are literal infants where are their guardians >:U #dcxdp #dpxdc

Trigons Backup Plan

So! Trigon knew from the moment his Daughter was taken in by the Monks of Azarath that it would be difficult to turn her to his will. He wasn't stupid, he knew just how hard it would be to make his daughter turn on everything she has ever known in her (very short) life.

He can't really blame her, even he believed that indiscriminate mass murder was wrong until his mid-200's, he just needs to wait for her to grow out of it.

But until then he still needs a way into the DC Universe. And if his daughter wouldn't help, then he could always just make a 2nd one.

So, he searches and eventually finds a Couple of Scientists who seem to be good targets. They are researching Magic and Ghosts, so he makes a Demonic Pact with them. He will give them the secrets needed to complete their Research, and in exchange all he asks is that they help him bare a child.

They agree, and Danny Fenton is born.

Danny was supposed to become a Hellmouth when he turned 16, unlocking his Demonic Powers and opening the way for Trigon to enter the DC Universe so he could conquer it.

Instead he managed to get himself killed at 14. Then he managed to come back to life as a Halfa, he got himself adopted by Clockwork, and he usurped the Throne of the Infinite Realms in the span of 1 year, therefore putting himself on the same level as his Father on the cosmic scale.

So there goes his Backup Plan.

Dammit.

...

Meanwhile Raven is panicking. She had been messing around with her Friends when they asked about the Spells she could do, and she off-handedly mentioned that she could cast Family Tracking Spells.

One thing led to another, and they all wanted to know if they had secret family. Then they asked if she wanted to try as well, and for some reason she agreed.

And long story short, she has a little brother somehow. A little brother who is only a few weeks away from turning 16, who doesn't know the Azarathian Spells she learned to prevent his own transformation into a Hellmouth.

Oh shit...

#Dpxdc #Dp x dc #Dcxdp #Dc x dp #Danny Phantom #Dc #Dcu #Trigon #Raven #Rachel Roth #Trigon knew that Raven would probably reject him #So he had a 2nd child in secret #Danny was supposed to unlock his powers and let Trigon into their dimension at 16 #But even Demon's aren't immune to Fenton Luck and he ended up dying and coming back as a Halfa #And not only that he overthrew Pariah Dark #Meaning Trigon can't even use him as a Portal anymore #Raven wants to find her little brother to save him #She doesn't know that the problem is solved already #Neither does Danny #“Hey mom and dad who is that Demon looking guy in our old family photos?”#“Oh that's just your Demon Dad! He gave us knowledge in exchange for a chance to have a son! And that's you!”#“What!?”#“If that's surprising just wait till you see Jazz's secret Parent!”
