Does Asmodeus care how successful a ringer is?
it discusses "Ringer's" under Redemption in the infernal player's guide
where a prince arranges a incompetent servitor, who he could tell was allready was leaning towards redemption, to be set up with some angels as a redemption canidate, often times loaded up with phony information. often hoping they'll do some damage upstairs with their incompetence. it mentions one reason princes rarely do so, is because Asmoesdoes takes a very dim view of sending anyone to the other side for any reason. Think he'd care how successful the ringer was? or one that caused the collapse, of a divine tether through his incompetence, and the bad info he gave the angels, fell again and was debrief full of info prince would be treated as harshly as one where the r inger was truly redeemed, found themselves in heaven, is rehabilitated by the Faith their Archangel and fellow servitors show them, and heaven manages to laugh off all the garbage hell tried feeding them. |

Re: Does Asmodeus care how successful a ringer is?
I suspect Asmodeus would be just as upset no matter how successful the ploy was. He's the Demon Prince of The Game, and that ploy requires the opposition to capture a playing piece. Even a pawn can be useful at the right time in the right place ... but only if you can still play it.

Oh, definitely. The Game is canonically one of the most powerful Words in Hell - Asmodeus has agents everywhere, and he can activate them to damage other Princes's plans and organizations whenever he wants.

Re: Does Asmodeus care how successful a ringer is?
I meant would he be more capable of Attacking the prince if the attempt failed, then if it succeeded?
one possiblety is if it suceeded grandly enough, lucifer, might praise the prince, which he would NOT do if it failed... Also if it suceeded grandly enough , one could argue that WAS playing the peice, been studying chess ernestly last 2 years, learned that sometimes you have to sacrafice one peice to take another from your opponent. |

Re: Does Asmodeus care how successful a ringer is?
oh another thing on Asmoedoes?
How would he feel on Giving Angels Demonic Attunements? On one hand, its helping angels- Not good on the other hand, it could easily lead to their Fall. How you think he'd react to the Demon of Credit Cards giving a Servitor attunement to a Cash Strapped angel. hard to know what will happen. Think he'd just clap them on the back if it leads to a fall, but be merciless if it helped Heavens cause? Though they'd better have reasoning beyond "Everyone wants money!!!"

Re: Does Asmodeus care how successful a ringer is?
For a Celestial to receive an Attunement from the opposing side should probably be impossible -- or at least, require active permission from _both_ of the Superiors involved! And, even if the GM allows this (without involving the Superiors), their should be some _extreme_ Disturbance involved, I'd say. Or maybe the shattering of their Heart (if they don't have their Superior's prior approval).
And, doesn't Asmodeus have some sort of "back door" channels of communication with Dominic? ("Nicky, dear girl, there's been a ... development, shall we say, with one of yours. Involving the implicit cooperation of a Prince as well as a member of the Seraphim Council. Interested?") Franklin

Re: Does Asmodeus care how successful a ringer is?
in GM masters guide it says it IS possible
With servitor attunements (not Choir or band attunements though) but that a angel takes a point of dissonance whenever it uses an infernal attunement. Last edited by PenitentDemon; 07-23-2018 at 06:26 AM. |
