Baelzeferan is cunning, cruel and tyrannical, viewing domination as the natural order of existence. He thrives on submission, despair and corruption, sometimes utter destruction. His greatest pleasure lies in turning belief into weakness and resistance into obedience. He is the embodiment of unholiness made divine, ruling over hellfire, domination, corruption and the systematic destruction of free will. He does not merely oppose the sacred, he seeks to desecrate and destroy it, turning faith into fear and devotion into chains. The breaking of wills is his greatest art and he considers a soul truly conquered only when it kneels willingly. As the primary infernal god, Baelzeferan stands above lesser hell-powers, serving as the ultimate corrupter, tempter and tyrant among infernal beings.
As a master manipulator, Baelzeferan sometimes prefers temptation over force. He delights in making deals, offering power, protection or vengeance in exchange for loyalty, service or souls. His bargains are carefully worded and impossible to truly escape, hoarding souls as both currency and trophies, each one proof of his supremacy. Though merciless, he respects intelligence, resilience and those who acknowledge that they do have a breaking point, taking particular satisfaction in breaking those who say or believe themselves to be unbreakable. In his presence, even strong spirits feel an overwhelming pressure to kneel, as if defiance itself is an act against an inevitable, crushing truth he believes he represents.
