The Khorumal

Fallen Tsetar of Rebellion

The First Pentacle of Tsetar Fallen

Fallen Tsetar and Alamascan:

These are the Celestials (Tsetar, Alamascan, Nephalim, Sephiroth, Tserai) who become corrupted and fall into Acheron to become Devils (See Devils). Khorumal is a broad name for all of those who embrace and choose to serve the Morning Star and Acheron's denizens as their Lords, or are those who fall or are cast into Acheron's great Pit. Khorumal are all of those who become Devils, also called the forsaken ones. As Tsetar become Khorumal, they cease to be Tsetar and become devils owed to the corruptive forces which reshape and infuse them, often with widely varying forms.

There are three types of devils they can become; Arch Devils, Devils and Angels of the Pit. (Any other devil types are very specific and specialized).

NOTE: Alamascan orders fall to become either Devils or Infernal Seraphs, although 1st Hierarchy Alamascan can under very special circumstances become Arch Devils (with GM guidance).

First Hierarchy
The Dark Fallen: These are the Khorumal who fell with Lucifer to become Arch Devils (see devils). There are nine of them and they are among the highest order of fallen celestials. Some of these arch devils are Primordials.

Second Hierarchy
The Fallen Horsemen: These are the Khorumal Primordial Arch Devils who once served Haman as the pale riders, or the four horsemen of destruction. There are only four of these devils (War, Famine, Death and Pestilence). They were the heralds of Yajmha's wrath. Acheron keeps a tight rein on these devils, whose tempers or judgment can devastate a world.

Third Hierarchy
The Fallen: These are the Arch Devils of the second, third and final rebellion of the 1st and 2nd Heirarchies of Tsetar who were cast out or fell into Acheron after Lucifer was cast down with the Dark Fallen.

Fourth Hierarchy
The Formless Ones (B): Among the Khorumal devils are the Beqidum (beh-kE-dUm) 'Formless Ones', or 'Devils of Ether' who for their extreme disobedience to Yajhma, were cast into the pit without a form. There are nine of these bodiless devils. The greatest power of the Beqidum is possession, and it can do so from spirit, or by touch. Each Beqidum commands its own unique powers (see Devils, Beqidum and Character Cloud, Kingdoms, Acheron Page). By spirit it's possession is far more powerful. The Beqidum can then control its host, and can wreak a great deal of havoc doing so if the formless one is evil, mischievous, or corruptive.

If the host dies, the Beqidum leaves its vessel and seeks another, but can only survive outside of the body or Pit for 10 seconds before perishing if they cannot reach the pit. The host cannot remember being possessed unless the Beqidum wills it.

The Formless ones dwell by the ruins of Abaddon's Fortress among the angels of the pit, as shadows of their former selves, and can only leave the pit if the Morning Star or a Prince of Acheron sets one of them loose. They must possess a body quickly, within 10 seconds, once Acheron is behind them, or risk perishing. Whatever they possess, beit animal or sentient, they become physically, while their spirit commands their host's will and deeds. When they abandon a host, the host has no memory whatsoever of being possessed unless the Beqidum wills them to remember.

Should a formless one perish, the next Maldezar reborn of the pit takes it place. This cruel curse is called The Ten Damned of the Abyss and is an irreversible curse. Always there are ten.

Fifth Hierarcy
Arch Devils: Most Tsetar of the 1st and 2nd heirarchies which fell or were cast into the abyss became powerful devils instead of angels of the pit. Arch Devils are reshaped physically by the abyss but later some of them learned to shift into their former shape, or other forms, including more human, or human ones.

Sixth Hierarcy
Angels of the Pit: these dark Tsetar devils are called Malduzar or Infernal Seraphs but are often referred to as Angels of the Pit. Malduzar can occur from any fallen Tsetar which grows extremely bitter, angry, hostile, or cold hearted. They can also result when Tsetar are cast into the abyss. The crushing black of the abyss embraces and changes these celestials into soul devouring creatures of Acheron; the bitter cold fires of the abyss consuming their body and soul before spitting them back out again on the ruins of a fortress, where once a great keep stood within the depths of the pit. The fortress belonged to the ruler of the Abyss, Abaddon, and is called the Ruins of Abaddon. Abdiel destroyed the fortress when he was cast into the pit in a fit of rage and despair, until Abaddon himself appeared, and soothed him, paying no mind to the ruination of his fortress, as he welcomed the fallen Tsetar as his brother. Seraph of the Pit are marked by The Morning Star's seal of possession as they are reborn out of the Abyss of Acheron. Push come to shove, those marked by him cannot disobey him if he imposes his will on them. The Morning Star alone can remove his mark of souls. The mark is some form of pentagram, at times a Baphomet pentagram, or one entwined with snakes, or dragons. Only Khorumal of True Chaotic or Evil alignments are reborn as Malduzar and devour souls.

Other Forsaken of Acheron

Seventh Hierarchy
Sephiroth: Celestials created in Acheron out of the abyss or the eternal flame by the Morning Star or more rarely by the Beqidum Androalphus who must have the Morning Star's blessing to create these beings. Sephiroth can become unique devils through transition via the abyss, eternal flame or death as orchastrated by their maker. The Astraeus clan of vampires are a type of vampiric Sephiroth who can become devils via death transitions or can produce true born devils.

Eigth Hierarchy
Fallen Swords, Arch Angels and Virtues of the Tsetar Third hierarchy become devils or Angels of the Pit under this hierarchy when they fall into Acheron. Infernal Demons - The antitheses of the Tsetar also fall under this Hierarchy.

Ninth Hierarchy
Fallen True Paragons: Tsetar offspring called Tserai (sehr-rI) born out of a pair of androgynous Tsetar that have not fallen into Acheron whereof the Tserai does fall into Acheron. These Khorumal become either Devils or Angels of the Pit. Extremely rare.

Tenth Hierarchy
Infernal Paragons: Tsetar hybrids called Tseraat (sehr-raht) are born out of androgynous Khorumal and a male demon, devil, vampire, fallen angel, or monster of Acheron, or fallen Tserai of the ninth hierarchy. Infernal Paragons are born devils which can control the paths and abilties of both parents (swap out devil abilities, traits and paths with those of non-Khorumal parent as you choose).

Eleventh Hierarchy
Fallen Paragons: Tsetar hybrids called Tsutaru born out of androgynous first pentacle Tsetar and a male immortal. Fallen Paragons fall into Acheron to become devils, or into the abyss of Acheron to become Angels of the Pit.
