Whether born into servitude to a cult, seduced by a succubus, a deal made with a devil or perhaps you signed away your life to the King of the Nine Hells, you are now or were at some point a servant to a fiend or devil. Your life was or is held in the hands of hellish creatures, and they have marked you as their territory till the end of your mortal days.
Now you serve your master, or have broken free of their control and must seek to keep that freedom. Either way, you've proven your worth, by entertainment or by abiding by what binds you to your master better than the others Their shadow
- Skill Proficiencies: You know your religion
You might know about being sneaky(Stealth) or about general magicking (Arcana)
- Languages: You know Infernal, common, and one other language
- Equipment: You have a ritual dagger, Dark Cloak, and your Master's mark.
Due to your servitude to a fiend, other fiends may regard you as trusted or at least non-threatening to them as long as you do not attack. They are more likely to give you information or create deals with you, as long as you play your part of still being a servant. How the other fiend reacts to you is based on how powerful your master is compared to them.
Property: Lower CR master by at least 3 compared to the fiend, you are regarded to as nothing more than property to them and they will treat you with little care
Non-hostile/Ally: any fiend master/ one of similar CR to the fiend you are attempting to converse with
Superior: Higher CR by at least 5 compared to the fiend, they treat you with respect and try not to get on your bad side as to avoid potentially upsetting the your superior fiend master
