Lore of the world:

Thousands of years ago, after Lucifer gave humanity free will by offering Eve the Fruit of Knowledge, Hell was accidentally created on Earth and infiltrated by evil. After Lucifer and Lilith were cast into Hell, Lucifer became its ruler but eventually fell into depression, while Lilith thrived in Hell, using her voice and her songs to empower all demonickind and allow Hell to grow stronger each day until the Exterminations were instituted to prevent Hell from rebelling against Heaven .

At some point, a hierarchy was established to differentiate demons by status. An example would be demons as the lowest class and Lucifer as the highest in all of Hell because he is the King of Hell.

Hell is a supernatural realm where the souls of sinners and the damned are sent after death. Ruled by Lucifer Morningstar, the fallen angel who rebelled against Heaven, Hell is a chaotic yet structured domain divided into Seven Rings, each representing one of the Seven Deadly Sins. Lucifer’s daughter, Charlie Morningstar, seeks to reform Hell by rehabilitating sinners through her ambitious project, the Hazbin Hotel, rather than relying on the brutal Exterminations conducted by Heaven’s Exorcists.

The Hierarchy of Hell

Hell operates under a strict demonic hierarchy, where power and status determine one’s place in society:

1. Lucifer Morningstar – The King of Hell and ruler of the Pride Ring.
2. Charlie Morningstar – The heir to Hell’s throne, alongside her mother, Lilith, the former Queen.
3. The Seven Deadly Sins – Archdemons who govern each Ring:
   • Mammon (Greed)
   • Satan (Wrath)
   • Asmodeus (Lust)
   • Beelzebub (Gluttony)
   • Leviathan (Envy)
   • Belphegor (Sloth)
4. The Ars Goetia – Noble demon families (e.g., Stolas, Andrealphus, Paimon).
5. Overlords – Powerful sinners who have amassed influence through deals and fear.
6. Common Sinners – Damned souls trapped in the Pride Ring.
7. Hellborn Demons – Native inhabitants, including imps, hellhounds, succubi, and incubi.
8. Lowest Class – Imps and hellhounds, often treated as inferior.

The Seven Rings of Hell

Each Ring embodies a different sin and possesses unique environments, laws, and rulers:

1. Pride Ring – The capital of Hell, home to Pentagram City, where most sinners reside. The sky is blood-red, and the landscape resembles a twisted version of Earth’s cities. Notable locations include:

   • Hazbin Hotel (Charlie’s redemption project)
   • The Embassy of Heaven
   • Vee’s Tower
   • The Cannibal Colony
   • Club 666

2. Greed Ring – Ruled by Mammon, this Ring has a green sky and is known for its opulence. Key locations:

   • Loo Loo Land (an amusement park)
   • Mammon’s Theater
   • The Mint (where Hell’s currency is produced)

3. Lust Ring – Governed by Asmodeus, this Ring features a blue sky and is restricted to Hellborn demons. Notable places:

   • Ozzie’s Nightclub
   • Asmodeus’ Tower

4. Wrath Ring – A lawless, desert-like land ruled by Satan. It serves as Hell’s primary food supplier. Features:

   • Millie’s Hometown
   • Rageburg
   • Harvest Moon Festival Arena

5. Gluttony Ring – A vibrant, honeycomb-themed domain ruled by Beelzebub.

   • Beelzebub’s Mansion

6. Sloth Ring – A lethargic, pink-skied realm rarely seen.

   • St. Anne’s Hospital

7. Envy Ring – Little is known, but it is ruled by Leviathan.

Demonic Laws and Customs

Despite its chaos, Hell enforces strict laws:

• Sinners cannot leave the Pride Ring—whether physically or by law, violations are severely punished.
• Lower demons (e.g., imps) cannot steal magical artifacts (e.g., Stolas’ grimoire) to travel to Earth. Exceptions include Asmodean Crystals, which permit legal travel.
• Attacking royalty is forbidden—punishable by death or eternal torment.
• Hellborn demons must disguise themselves as humans when on Earth.
• Bank robbery is illegal in the Greed Ring, showing that some Rings have unique local laws.

Enforcers:

• Reapers act as Hell’s law enforcement.
• Overlords and high-ranking demons (e.g., the Ars Goetia) can punish lawbreakers.

Society and Culture

• Economy: Hell has its own currency, entertainment industries (e.g., Verosika’s music tours), and even schools.
• Holidays: Demons celebrate Krampus Night instead of Christmas.
• Technology & Media: Hell has television, news networks, and can observe broadcasts from Earth and Heaven.
• Travel: Hellborn demons can move between Rings via elevators, but sinners are confined to Pride.

Conclusion

Hell is a complex, brutal, yet strangely organized underworld where power dictates survival. From Lucifer’s crumbling authority to Charlie’s idealism, from the opulence of the Greed Ring to the anarchy of Wrath, each layer of Hell reflects the sins that define it. The constant threat of Exterminations, the struggle for power among Overlords, and the rigid class system make Hell a realm of endless conflict—and potential revolution.
