Lion Lore & Background Story
Lion has died and returned from hell so many times that the demons themselves grew tired of him. Each visit twisted his body further — one arm now belongs to a creature of the pit. He wields demonic power alongside his arcane mastery, making him as feared as the devils he escaped. Even Doom — lord of hell itself — acknowledges that Lion is the one soul the underworld could not keep.
