His is a golden beauty, containing cold fire. The whip coiled at his side is also in his step. Feathery, leathery wings are power, the potential for which is also lashed to his back as a tremendous sword, ready to be unleashed at any moment. Smooth bone horns upon his brow and bone spurs at his elbows deny his angelic past.Armor covers him from pointed metal boots to the greaves and gauntlets of his arms. Beneath this metal casing, the body is considerably larger than a Damned's, with appreciatively potent muscles held as tautly as the rest of him. The breastplate bears two sigils at the shoulders: Moloch's and his own - twin lightening bolts around an orb. This demon is a weapon, awaiting a trigger.
Duke Baal, Lord of Thruashi, Commander of the Nephelan Armies, of Moloch's Court
Baal is a talented leader, and an absolute fright on the open field of battle. Often able to go toe-to-toe with a Prince's armies and come out evenly or ahead, Baal is respected as one of the best strategists in all of Hell.
He also acts as a balancing force to Moloch's aggressive stance. Where Moloch is heated, Baal is cool and calculating, allocating forces shrewdly, and having the backbone to stand up to Moloch when he believes a plan is unsound. It is widely believed that Moloch selected him for these very traits.
