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. Be sure to check out my PDF Store! You can support me by heading over to mrrhexx.store/
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
If you can try to get a copy of the descent into avernus module. There's quite a bit of lore in the book and you can always steal or modify some of the events that the book presents to you
I'm DMing a long term homebrew where the players are against agents of one layer, but I'm not going to write down which one it is in case they are spying on me.
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!
I'll chalk that up to this being an Avernus episode, and not a Zariel Episode. We could go from every detail of it every character that's relevant to avernus, but between Taimat, Baal, Zariel, all their allies. Oof
I’ve read and watched a lot of Avernus lore, including the details of Zariel, and while your story makes sense from a logical standpoint, I have never heard it before. Can you give a source for this please?
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.
I covered Levistus as part of a promotion with Wizards of the Coast for the release of Dungeons and Dragons: Dark Alliance. I have also done a few solo videos on Asmodeus. This would be my first time doing a 'series' per se on the Nine Hells.
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.
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.
On your 4th questions - space on the Outer Planes actually very weird thing that deeply ties into the core philosophy of Planescape and is never really well-explained. All Planes are described as infinite many times, but logistics of this become increasingly weird as you think about it For example, it is said that nupperibos can pop up on any place in Avernus, and devils actively search for them. How can a finite amount of devils scour an infinite plane? Of course, there can be infinite devils (considering how there is infinite Prime Material Plane), but how are they able to be outnumbered by demons then? Now, one must remember that Outer Planes are but manifestations of our thoughts and beliefs, so it's very arcane and strange by design. Infinity of the planes makes sense to me and I could explain it, but my finger hurts You can definitely find wilderness in Nine Hells though. Malbolge, Cania and Stygia have them for days
The process for promoting devils is nasty stuff, and varies based on the type. Per Planescape's book on fiends, erinyes are literally carved into their beautiful shape, and gelugons (ice devils) literally cook for a thousand years in a pit of flame to become pit fiends.
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.
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.
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!
"Alas" usually comes with a negative connotation, similar to "unfourtunately". "Alas, he passed away recently". "Rejoice" would have better a better word in this context, IMO. :)
You're back, yay!!! For my 2 cents on what video you should do next, I'd love to see the other layers of hell, and the differences between different devils in each layer
A friend of my wizard was trapped in Cania and now that we're approaching lv 20, we're preparing to invade the nine hells to free his soul. It's not going to be played, but I will write short stories about it, the best part is we can deal with things outside the mechanics. For instance, my wizard is dabbling with shadow weave to have a backup in case there's dead magic zones that still work with that, the fighter is recruiting an army of giants, we have a couple of other retired character who will be there as a final last mission. So it's super cool you're doing this, because avernus aside, the information about the other layers is sparce and it's more enjoyable to listen to you! Thanks!
@@ForceOfUru as mentioned, it's not going to be a campaign, rather fanfiction. They're characters we've played up until LV 19 now and playing them kinds of loses meaning, I basically have to decide how broken do I want my wizard to be. As an update, Elmìna, my wizard, did some research about shadow weave magic with some other archmage, finding out that the best way to use it is to stick to transmutation and evocation schools of magic and using scrolls to cast. Meanwhile there's a bunch of drama of other people not wanting her to go, not always the good kind, it's the same old end justifying the means sharade, you know
Awesome video, as always! I've finally found some folks to play DnD with and have been slowly getting back into the proper Forgotten Realms lore, courtesy mostly to the videos you make, along with a few other sources. I'm sure I can speak for everyone when I say I freaking love these informative deep dives into the lore. PS: If you ever want to continue on with your Dragon specific series, I would LOVE to see you cover the original 'forgotten' Dragons, such as the Yellow, Orange, and my personal favourite, Purple Dragons as originally seen in the Dragon Magazines. You've most likely been asked a lot, so I do apologise in advance if that is the case, but I can't stress enough how cool it would be to get a video from you covering those Dragons, and more. Thanks as always, MrRhexx! 🐉🐉🐉
Just found this channel - didn't know much about D&D outside of baldurs games - but this really tied a beautiful educational story together in a really cool way - thanks for putting in the time and effort into making this!! Couldn't turn it off, haha!
This is such perfect timing! I am starting a campaign where the party will venture into Hell and I was looking through your videos for info a few weeks ago and now this comes out with even more infernal info. Thank you!
This is so perfect! My campaign is building towards a conflict with Asmodeus. The info is much appreciated. I'd love to hear more about how souls are traded and received, and especially how night hags are involved in this!
Currently in an Avernus module campaign. I love listening to lore about Avernus. Doesn't spoil anything for me. Just adds to the enjoyment of the adventure.
Watching MrRhexx videos sends you down the rabbit hole of other videos and information that keeps you bound to his will of Dungeons and Dragons teaching lessons. There is no way back from it. He latches onto you and never lets go. You submit willingly and you might emerge one day more powerful then a...????
The timing for these videos is perfect, I’ve been creating a character for a campaign that was raised in the Nine Hells so I’ve been trying to do research on them
Best dnd lore content on TH-cam, thankyou. As far as what id like to see next I think a deep dive into devils, and the plains they preside over, before covering the blood war, would be better, soo we can truly understand the war to its fullest.
As always, it is a joy to hear from you, oh great loremaster. I suggest that you make videos about each layer (their geography, inhabitants & ruler) and then end the series with the Blood War and how each layer effects the conflict.
Awesome video! I'd love to hear more about the other layers of The Nine Hells and the Archdevils who rule over them, their personality, mandates and schemes.
I did enjoy the video! I feel like you might have touched on the levels of Hell before but I think it would be fun to go in that direction (it's creation, purpose, how it functions, who lives there) and then talk about the blood War.
"I'm really proud of it, and I just want you all to see it." There's a genuineness to the self-insert that is a little too wholesome to ignore. Yah done well, Chief.
I wish i could say go in both directions with this thought train, but since you're making me choose, I'm running a campaign right now that deals partially with Avernus, so learning more about the blood war might be really useful - I pick that one!
I love your videos. They are well researched and amazing narrated. I would love to hear more about the other layers and than about the blood war. Thanks for creating such an amazing content
So glad to see you back with this kind of content! Keep the opening motion stories they are great. Let's get a good video on the blood war now! Take your time though...
My homebrew campaign involves devils heavily. I would benefit greatly from a video detailing how the devils interact with the material plane, what sorts of things might you find them up to, how you might run an interaction with a devil, some examples of deals that might make, and maybe some twists on expectations PCs might find. Thanks for the video!
Good to have you back xD Avernus is a super interesting topic, especially the beaurocratic kind of evil it represents xD love the deep dive into the D&D multiverse cosmology.
Yes indeed Long awaited and well worth the wait. Great Content. Once did a campaign Where Zarell.and The former Duke Who seeks to supplant her wer at war, My People Were Aiding Tiamet to take over While they were busy fighting each other. Can only Imagine two dukes and there armies nealry killing.each other, Only To have a sudden big bang in the sky seeing Tiamet amd thousands of Dragons explode onto the scene. (Aided by an army of shadows, and the chosen Of Shar).Yup good times
I had to pause, hunt down and read that looooong campaign in art form. Beautiful, really do hope that was someone's campaign because it was perfect for Hell.
Love this series so much. Can we get What they don’t tell you about Undermountain? Or maybe about Halaster Blackcloak, Manshoons, or even just Waterdeep in general.
From what I remember in the "Tyrants of the Nine Hells" book, which had some illustrations used here: The soul shells are tortured *first*, to extract their soul energy, and *then* they're tossed into one of the many "maggot pits" to become converted to lemures.
You make great videos about the planes of existence! I vote for continuing the layers of hell if that is something you like. I would also love to see videos about other planes like Acheron.
Would love to know more about the layers of the nine hells! Hoping in the future you have a chance to talk about Gehenna and the Barghests that live there.
Nice video. I would love a "travel guide" to the Nine Hells: ways to get there, how to go between layers, how each layer affects people... I know the general description of the layers but they all seem desolate and empty, except for Dis. I would welcome some detail on Dis and the bureaucracy of Hell, but also... What do devils do in the other layers? In Dante's Divine Comedy each layer was where sinners of a specific kind would be tortured, but I don't see this structure in the 9 Hells.
I hope you're planning to do one for every layer of the hells! (assuming you haven't done any others yet) My campaign is likely to go into Stygia at some point and that would be so helpful because there isn't too much concrete stuff I can find without intense diving into stuff. (Hells, even the Merrenoloth info you mentioned in regards to Styx was unbelievably helpful)
Great vid, as always, and a great help as well. I'm all in for a layer by layer approach for future vids. I'm currently running Descent (my players have just arrived in Avernus) and intend to run Chains ofAsmodeus after.

You are amazing. Welcome back.
Blood war
Can you make a Graz’zt video
Happy Easter! This will be a hell of a series!
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
I hope so! A video for Stygia would be the best thing for my campaign, I'd love to see that stuff
Can't wait for the rest
An endless yt stream that describes all layers of the abyss would be fun
Yes that is what he said
Same thing we had to do for your mother....*shakes head*..here we go again
I'm literally running a one shot in Avernus tomorrow and needed a bit of background. Mr Rhexx knows when we need him most.
If you can try to get a copy of the descent into avernus module. There's quite a bit of lore in the book and you can always steal or modify some of the events that the book presents to you
I hope you included as many hell chickens as physically possible while you played.
I'm DMing a long term homebrew where the players are against agents of one layer, but I'm not going to write down which one it is in case they are spying on me.
Haven’t even started watching, just saw MrRhexx and the title and…..
HE’S BAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!
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.

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!
cant believe he left that out
Tough campaign but loads of fun
I'll chalk that up to this being an Avernus episode, and not a Zariel Episode.
We could go from every detail of it every character that's relevant to avernus, but between Taimat, Baal, Zariel, all their allies.
Oof
I’ve read and watched a lot of Avernus lore, including the details of Zariel, and while your story makes sense from a logical standpoint, I have never heard it before. Can you give a source for this please?
Dad's back with the milk
He's back and brought hell with him.
Told you he would come back
Nah 1 month is short for rhexx
Man always puts his full bussy into it. Gotta love em
@@eliudesantos3237when my dad brings home hell, he just hits us 😢
I vote for more on The Blood War. Then, going down and describing every layer with denizens, major characters, important places, etc...
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
Thank you for your service.
Lol that's awesome. My player's just finished it 2 weeks ago. They had to fight Tiamat's avatar after redeeming Zariel.
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.

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!
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?

I haven't heard anything about the time though. Unless you mean that devils perceive time differently because they live insanely long and barely sleep
@@georgeuferov1497well mathematically speaking certain infinities are bigger than others. For example pi vs regular infinity or pi vs tau.
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.

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.
These extended intros are great! It's also super nice every time you don't open your videos with a three minute ad we have to skip.
Blood war sounds great, but I'd love to hear about the other layers too!
My body is ready, also who ever did the cute little intro deserves some praise.
Shadowheart
Where?
Alas! The D&D Prophet has returned!!
You should maybe Google 'Alas'.
@@rhemorigher lol i was gonna type the same thing
"Alas" usually comes with a negative connotation, similar to "unfourtunately". "Alas, he passed away recently".
"Rejoice" would have better a better word in this context, IMO. :)
Thank you for explaining it to them and not just telling them to google it like a douche. @@ivoryowl

Hell yeah bro I love these outer planes videos, glad to see them being given some attention! Love you bro!
Hell yes!!! Great video and well summarized info. Looking forwards to more!
Holy moly, thank you for making your videos, they are always a blessing to me
I have been watching for a long time. Love ur content. Thought i was already but i am definitely subscribed now
So happy to get a new vid
Fun fact: Set's divine realm is in Stygia. The ice and snow just randomly gives way to an Egyptian-style desert.
Glad to see you back!
would love videos on the rest of the hells/
The Master Sage is BACK!!!!!
Love the video! This is by far my favorite ttrpg lore channel
top notch quality, as always. Keep up the good work
Get it moving brother. I'm loving the coverage.
Sweet, a Hell series. Just what the doctor ordered.
Always good to have a Rhexx video. Awesome.
This is such perfect timing! I am starting a campaign where the party will venture into Hell and I was looking through your videos for info a few weeks ago and now this comes out with even more infernal info. Thank you!
awesome, to see new upload, and returning to the cosmology of dnd, loving it
The Wilhelm screen got me.. i wasn't expecting that nice little touch.
Love your lore videos dude! I always give them a listen before planning my DnD games
I’d like to see videos covering the rest of the layers of the Hells to continue this series. Anyway, great video, as always.
Bro I love your videos so much please upload more if you can. I can only rewatch your older stuff so many times before I remember them all...
This is so perfect! My campaign is building towards a conflict with Asmodeus.
The info is much appreciated.
I'd love to hear more about how souls are traded and received, and especially how night hags are involved in this!
I'd love to hear more about how the Nine Hells work and the differences between it's layers! Love your content, thank you ❤
More layers of the Hells!
Currently in an Avernus module campaign. I love listening to lore about Avernus. Doesn't spoil anything for me. Just adds to the enjoyment of the adventure.
Great content , I've watched other's do it , but not as good as you today.

A video on each layer would be wonderful! Especially if you toych on each of the lords like you did with Zariel. Excited for three mini series here
I would love to see you go in depth more on each layer of the nine hells. that would be facinating
Brooo so glad you posted this video great job
Been running the Descent into Advernus for my players since January. This is a treat this came out 🎉
Would love to learn more about the structure and history of devil society. Great content as always, thanks for all the hard work!
would LOVE vids that cover all nine layers!! hell adventures are some of my favs
I think many people would like to see a sereies focusing on the different nine hells
Specifically what I would like to hear more about, is everything. In the weekly 30m+ format 😜
I did enjoy the video! I feel like you might have touched on the levels of Hell before but I think it would be fun to go in that direction (it's creation, purpose, how it functions, who lives there) and then talk about the blood War.
Excellently entertaining video, as always. Very cool tidbit on Tiamat and the Abishai at the end.
I just finished playing descent into avernus and this drops. The timing is insane.
"I'm really proud of it, and I just want you all to see it."
There's a genuineness to the self-insert that is a little too wholesome to ignore. Yah done well, Chief.
I enjoy learning about the residents, like other deities or realm in these location.

Sooooo happy you are back! For a preference, I'd personally like you to go through each of the levels before going into the Blood Wars.
5:00 DID I HEAR A ROCK AND STONE?
ROCK AND STONE!
ROCK AND STONE EVERYONE!
Perfect timing! I just picked Bauldurs Gate 3 back up.
So glad to see you back with this kind of content! Keep the opening motion stories they are great. Let's get a good video on the blood war now! Take your time though...

I would benefit greatly from a video detailing how the devils interact with the material plane, what sorts of things might you find them up to, how you might run an interaction with a devil, some examples of deals that might make, and maybe some twists on expectations PCs might find.

Definitely time to go deeper. Anything that offers clarity to the remaining eight layers would be outstanding.
DID I HEAR A ROCK AND STONE
Rock
N
Stone!!!
If you don't rock and stone, you ain't comin' home!
ROCK AND STONE TO THE BONE
If you rock and stone, you're never alone.
Last one to ROCK AND STONE pays for the first round!
Good to have you back xD Avernus is a super interesting topic, especially the beaurocratic kind of evil it represents xD love the deep dive into the D&D multiverse cosmology.

You don't run from the Nine Hells!!! The Nine Hells run from you!!! True for Mr. Rhexx and myself!!!
My all time favorite d&d channel is back!
i personally would love to know more about kortalmack. more so than what was stated in the kobold video lol.
Excellent video! I'd love to see videos on each of the other Nine Hells!
I had to pause, hunt down and read that looooong campaign in art form.
Beautiful, really do hope that was someone's campaign because it was perfect for Hell.
We missed you man!
Thanks for the meal and hope you are well.
Psyched for this series 👍

Both directions, all directions, great video
I'm currently running Chains of Asmodeus so I am certainly excited about this video. Even though my players are past Avernus now.
Love this series so much. Can we get What they don’t tell you about Undermountain?
Or maybe about Halaster Blackcloak, Manshoons, or even just Waterdeep in general.
From what I remember in the "Tyrants of the Nine Hells" book, which had some illustrations used here: The soul shells are tortured *first*, to extract their soul energy, and *then* they're tossed into one of the many "maggot pits" to become converted to lemures.
Welcome back🎉 your lore videos were missed.
You make great videos about the planes of existence!
I vote for continuing the layers of hell if that is something you like.
I would also love to see videos about other planes like Acheron.
Would love to know more about the layers of the nine hells! Hoping in the future you have a chance to talk about Gehenna and the Barghests that live there.
Layer by layer with deep dives into major locations and residents
Nice video. I would love a "travel guide" to the Nine Hells: ways to get there, how to go between layers, how each layer affects people... I know the general description of the layers but they all seem desolate and empty, except for Dis.
I would welcome some detail on Dis and the bureaucracy of Hell, but also... What do devils do in the other layers? In Dante's Divine Comedy each layer was where sinners of a specific kind would be tortured, but I don't see this structure in the 9 Hells.
I hope you're planning to do one for every layer of the hells! (assuming you haven't done any others yet) My campaign is likely to go into Stygia at some point and that would be so helpful because there isn't too much concrete stuff I can find without intense diving into stuff. (Hells, even the Merrenoloth info you mentioned in regards to Styx was unbelievably helpful)
Great vid, as always, and a great help as well. I'm all in for a layer by layer approach for future vids. I'm currently running Descent (my players have just arrived in Avernus) and intend to run Chains ofAsmodeus after.
