I am hoping to go layer by layer! So our next video will be on The City of Dis in the second layer of Hell.

[asaadrguibi]

wait does this mean we are having a video for every layer of hell
Edit:I wrote this comment immediately as I saw the title of the video when it came out before 20 min of him writing his comment too

[bryandonjohnston]

I'm literally running a one shot in Avernus tomorrow and needed a bit of background. Mr Rhexx knows when we need him most.

[jacobjensen]

Haven’t even started watching, just saw MrRhexx and the title and…..

HE’S

[OliverurFace]

No matter how long i have to wait. No matter how many winters i must endure. One day, when i awake and open my phone, youtube will load, and i will see the title, "What they dont tell you about Bahamut." That day will be a good day.

Zariel Lore:

One interesting detail I often see left out in Zariel's Big Moment attacking devil legions in Avernus, is the fact that she never intended to go to Avernus. She got ready to lead an attack into the Abyss and prepared the then not called Hell Riders for the the dangers of that specific Plane. Yeenoghu tricked her into chasing the demons through a Portal they created which she thought led to the Abyss. Yet it led straight into the then already raging Blood War.

The Hell Riders became what they are on accident and many fled back through the Portal led by one of her Officers (which she later permenantly impaled on an Iron Tree in Undeath)

Zariel was at her lowest moment in her defeat in Avernus. And thats just an open invitation for a manipulator like Asmodeus.

Play Descent into Avernus if you can. Ugh it's so juicy. Great Video!

Guys, you don't have to worry about Zariel in Avernus. My group already redeemed her and now she's pretty chill. You're welcome :D

[Grybster]

I vote for more on The Blood War. Then, going down and describing every layer with denizens, major characters, important places, etc...

[Ninebreaker]

Alas! The D&D Prophet has returned!!

[Raggi]

Sweet, a Hell series. Just what the doctor ordered.

[selntak]

Is it all in my head or there was a series about the lords of the 9 hells? I have faint memory of watching them but i cant find them other than Levistus lord of the 5th layer. Not that I'm complaining. A MrRhexx is always a blessing.

[ronben-ezer]

I think the fireballs are no longer a thing. They were mentioned in every single edition except 5e, but one of these mentions (I think it was "guide to hell"?) gave an explanation to their origin: the manifestations of Zariel's anger and fury at her imprisonment by Bel (as she was briefly supplanted and imprisoned by him for a little while that the former editions of the game happened during). Now she's free, so the fireballs no longer have any reason to exist and it makes sense that they were omitted.

[vesperiadragon]

Anything that goes in depth about each layer is fascinating to me. Knowing the lore about the 9 hells and Asmodeus’ true secret is probably the most engaging lore of all of dnd. Probably the biggest part of it all is that I simply can’t wrap my head around double-speaking and trickery with contracts and such, so hearing all the politics that lead to the hells looking as they do is astounding. I really hope Wizards one day does something with Levistus.

Great video.

A few things I have always wondered about Devils / 9 Hells:
- What does the process look like to rank up, does a higher devil have to do anything and what does it cost them?
- I know time works differently there, is that different for all circles?
- How crowded are the hells? could you find wilderness?
- More info on what it was like before the war.

Honestly I use your Info all the time and you've been a huge help and source of entertainment for me for a long time.
Thank you.

My favorite youtuber doing my favorite setting, on Easter morning, let's gooo!

[urplatz]

Perfect timing too, I started running Descent into Avernus as my first major campaign a little over a month ago, and my players are about to enter Avernus in another session or two. Thanks Rhexx!

[Animogx]

I am deeply pleased to see videos about subjects related to the Lower Planes again, your past ones have always been a great deal of fun!

[otisspunkmeyer]

Blood war sounds great, but I'd love to hear about the other layers too!

[FeedMeSalt]

My body is ready, also who ever did the cute little intro deserves some praise.

[Goblinp]

So happy to see this video. The nine hells are my favorite lore spot in the multiverse with the second being the different layers of the abyss.
