Lord Xothan's Army

Lord Xothan's Army was an army of fallen demons from the and, led by Xonathan Galanis VII under his alias 'The Devil' or 'Lord Xothan'.

The army was established in the episode 'Fallen Devil' which took place on the 25th May 2017. The army was disbanded on the 19th March 2021 when all of its key members had been captured or killed.

Background
Lord Xothan's Army was founded by Lord Xothan, Bertram Liourdis (a.k.a. 'Lieutenant'), and General Nicholas, when they and various other demons from the 16th and 17th centuries were willingly expelled from the Afterlife. When they and the other demons of the demon army were expelled from the afterlife, all of their souls were dissolved into thin air when they reentered the world of living and landed on their home Brystall in their home  Erais.

The reason for this was because inhabitants of the afterlife are not accustomed to the world of living, so if they are given the opportunity to cheat death, they will do so at a terrible price. As Xothan was much more powerful than his demon followers, instead of his soul dissolving into thin air like the others, it shattered into 16 pieces, becoming what became known as The Devil's Spark.

Trivia

 * As demons and angels are natural enemies, there haven't been any pure angel members of Lord Xothan's Army. But there has been one halfling in the army, with angel ancestry.
 * Gryphon Fotopoulos, a nephalem who is five-eighths human, three-sixteenths demon, and three-sixteenths angel.
 * However Gryphon was never loyal to the army, and only joined at Piercy Provost's persuasion for the safety of his brother Harrison Provost who had pretended to rejoin Lord Xothan's Army after being blackmailed to.
