Devil (Black Clover Supplement)
Devil[edit]
Devils are an ancient race of magical and malevolent beings that dwell in the underworld, a bleak world where the only amusement comes from tormenting each other and toying with the humans of the living world.
Physical Description[edit]
The common defining characteristic of devils are their black horns, which all devils boast. In general, the higher ranking the devil, the longer and more impressive horns they tend to have.
Society[edit]
All Devils reside in the Underworld. The underworld is divided into seven layers and is ruled over by three highest-ranking devils and reside at the lowest level. Each level houses devils of various ranks, with the highest-ranking devils dominating all those on their level. Because the underworld is so bleak and boring, higher-ranked devils keep themselves entertained by torturing those of lower ranks, while the lower ranked devils torment those who are even lower.
Devil Names[edit]
Devil names are based on demonic figures from many sources around the world.
Male: Adramelech, Beelzebub, Lucifero
Female: Lilith, Lucifulgus, Megicula.
Devil Traits[edit]
| Ability Score Increase. One of the following scores increases by 2: Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma. Age. Devils do not age in any way shape or form, and live forever. Devils fully mature at the age of 14 years old. Alignment. Devils all have chaotic ideals, and are always in search of causing destruction. Devils are always Chaotic, though they tend to lean more towards Evil than to Neutral or Good. Size. Devila vary widely in height and build, all depending on their rank. Your size is medium if you are a Highest-Ranking Devil or High-Ranking Devil, your size is large if you are a Mid-Ranking Devil, and your size is Huge if you are a Low-Ranking Devil. Any ranks that allow you to have a size higher than Medium can be changed to Medium if you so choose. Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet. |
| Starting Hit Points. Your hit point maximum is increased by 8. |
| Dark Mana. Devils live in the underworld, and are associated with every negative thing in the world, their mana reflects this. Your mana counts as Dark Mana. Also, you cannot become Berserk from using Dark Mana, unless it's caused by one of your spells. |
| Monstrous Biology. All devils have monstrous bodies, being much warped compared to the creatures outside the Underworld. Your type is Fiend. Also, you gain 4 Biology Points. You can choose how to spend them at character creation, choosing options from the Devil Biology section. |
| Devil Heart. The most important part of a devil's body is their Heart, as long as it lives a Devil can eventually recover itself. Whenever you are reduced to 0 hit points but not killed outright, you are not knocked unconscious but become incapacitated and your movement speed is reduced to 0 instead. You make death saves as normal, but your heart is now exposed. Your heart has an AC equal to 10 + your Constitution modifier, and a number of hit points equal to ¼ of your hit point maximum. Your heart regains hit points whenever you regain hit points (such as on a short or long rest), and if its hit points are reduced to 0 you are killed outright. Even if you fail your death saves three times, you do not die while your heart still has its hit points, regaining 1 hit point after 1 minute has passed. |
| Languages. You can speak, read, and write Common and one other language of your choice. Subrace. The Subrace of a devil is its devil rank. A devil's rank is defined when they are born, and it cannot be changed. You must choose between Low-Ranking Devil, Mid-Ranking Devil or High-Ranking Devil. If you have the Qliphot Devil feat, you can choose the Highest-Ranking Devil subrace. |
