Demons love spreading misinformation to Sorcerors... although occasionally it comes back and bites them. For example, take this exchange between two servitors of Dark Humor, just before one changes Superiors:

"You remember that snot-nosed Calabite over in Belial's crowd?"

"Which one?"

"The one that keeps humming that stupid tune."

"Oh, yeah - Furfur. I told some sorcerers a century ago that he was a Duke of Hell, commanding 33 Legions. They keep summoning the poor schmuck to get military help. Not one of my best jokes, but one that's still good for a laugh."

"Yeah, I know. You mentioned that a few decades ago. Lucifer made Furfur a Prince today."

"No way!"

"Way!"

"If he ever finds out I'm responsible for that rumor..."

"I already told him. Yeah, you're screwed."
