Demon Gods
The Demon Gods appeared in Aetherius at the end of the Age of Desperation, after adventurers opened a rift that allowed Azaoz, Lord of the Demons, to enter the Prime Material Plane. The Demon Gods are infamous for their brutal murders of all the Gods of Imperian.
`The Stavennite Empire rejects those that have slain the Creator, seek the destruction of the Divines, and every living being in the realm. Though you might distrust us, with fair reason, the Empire won't oppose any effort done in the direction of getting rid of them.
— Imperator Mena Farrell, publicly denouncing the Demon Gods (Khandava's leaders would make a similar statement)
In response to the hostilities of the Demon Gods, an alliance between each of the cities and councils of Aetherius was signed in the month of Halitus, 678 AD. This Accord of the Six Nations would be tested and tried by members of almost every organization at some point through the Godsdeath War.
