Similar to the Celestial race, after the Law of Shadow and Obscurity descended into the infernal depths of Hell, a new kind of existence clawed its way into being. The Devouts, born not from flesh, but from the festering rebellion and bitter resentment of Hell itself, emerged as its living defiance, molded by darkness, cloaked in shadows. Their skin, strange to behold, carries the eerie texture and appearance of living shadow, ever-shifting and veiled, as though they were ghosts tethered to flesh. Horns, twisted and jagged like remorse itself, crown their heads, symbols of their cursed origin.
Though not titans of brute strength, being only equal to the Immortal race, their spirit of defiance burns hotter than any flame, and their rebellion simmers just beneath the surface like lava waiting to burst. Their very presence challenges order, making even those of higher standing wary of their unpredictable nature. They are not bound by loyalty, they are ruled by grudge and instinct.
