BELIAL
God of War, Destruction, and Bloodlust
About Belial
Belial is the Crimson Reaver, the embodiment of unrestrained violence, destruction, and the primal hunger for battle. He revels in the chaos of war, the breaking of bodies, the roar of blood-fury. Unlike Kyte's honorable combat, Belial's domain is slaughter without restraint and dominance through carnage. His loyalists—berserkers, warlords, brutal conquerors—seek strength at any cost. Where Belial walks, peace dies, and only the strongest survive.
