Diablo
The Diablos, stylized as Diαblo[1] and also known as the Flame Demons,[2] are a "subrace"/tribe of the Sarkaz.
Overview
Diablos have the traits of fiery demons or entities in many legends and fantasy works such as Ifrit in Arabic folklore and Moloch in Canaanite legend, possessing metallic horns and tails, and are famous for their proficiency in pyrokinetic Arts.
The Diablos were one of the Sarkaz subraces that made up the Kazdel Royal Court, belonging to the Punishment/Condemnor Clan,[3] and were among the most powerful of them. They are believed to be extinct, but many Terran factions, including the Columbian military, possess their "shards." These shards however, still retain their original consciousness, and when embedded, they can still communicate with the body owner within their subconsciousness.[4]

| Ifrit is not a true Diablo; she was originally a Savra who was forcibly embedded with a Diablo's body shards through Rhine Lab's genetic engineering experiments, turning her into a Savra-Diablo hybrid.[1] |

- Balor'sača[note 1]: The monarch of the Diablos in the Royal Court of Kazdel and one of the Kings of Sarkaz; said to be the most powerful Diablo to ever live.[5] Alongside the rest of Diablos, he went missing under mysterious circumstances.
Etymology
Diablo literally means "devil" in Spanish and it derives from the Latin diabolus, which also derives from diábolos (διάβολος) in ancient Greek, meaning "slanderer".[6]
Notes
- ↑ Etymology unknown, but Balor likely comes from baʿlu, the Ugaritic prounciation for Baal, which is also the name of a supernatural being in Irish folklore
