'''Asmodeus''' is a [[demon]] lord who wields the [[Sceptre of Asmodeus]] and is the guardian of the obsidian [[rune]] on the last level of [[Gehenna]]. All tiles adjacent to Asmodeus fill with persistent [[cloud]]s of flame which will trail behind him as he moves, making melee with him painful. However, he's even more dangerous at range, hammering you with Hellfire and summoning endless reinforcements. He can be found in the back room of his castle, usually accompanied by a pair of [[brimstone fiend]]s.

Greatest and most cunning of the Lords of Hell, Asmodeus was born when the twin fires of greed and treachery first sparked to life within a mortal's heart. His hideous body is perpetually wreathed in flame.

It is I who introduced into this world luxury, debauchery, games of chance, and chemistry.

  • Asmodeus has a lot of HP and AC, so killing him will be tough. One strategy is to gain his attention and lure him into one of the smaller vaults nearby. Then, buff yourself, summon a few allies, and once he's in your LOS try to kill him as quickly as possible.

History
