archdevils
Rulers of perdition
Archdevils are the ruling demons of hell in various religious and mythological traditions—the hierarchy of evil, with figures like Satan, Lucifer, Beelzebub, and Asmodeus at the top.
In fantasy games and fiction, archdevils are the most powerful fiends, governing infernal realms and commanding lesser devils: The party wasn't remotely prepared to face an archdevil.
