This page relates to lore, you can find the original lore here.

Inferi are creatures driven only by power. They come in many different corrupted forms, but have commonalities of horns, wings, tails, and other such animalistic features. Most inferi were once mortals, either being brought to Moz Strimoza by being picked of Ebrietaes by Ixli or Ikuras or being turned by black sorcery such as Naztherak, they are corrupted souls by the maleus, the manifestation of chaos in the form of energy.[1]

When inferi perish perish somewhere outside of Moz Strimoza, their corpse is left but their soul returns, manifesting in fertile ash. Malflame can revive this, but only if the ashes are whole. Should ashes scatter, they can be revived as lesser inferi, with less memories and identity of their previous form. Gatrov, while now technically part of the inferi hierarchy, are still infernal beings.

Hierarchy

The hierarchy of the inferi has lesser inferi at its bottom, with greater inferi above that, and Ixris, the Red Prince, Iblees' patron at the top. By feasting on each other, consuming soul essence that is usually corrupted by Maleus in the form of Rakir, they can climb the hierarchy.

Lesser Inferi

Zevn

Zevn, also known as Imps, are the lowest form of sentient Inferi. They can be sized anywhere between sprites and small goblins, their strength matching this. Their intelligence has a similar range, ranging from brutish to cunning.[1]

Properties

Imps typically roam in hordes to make up for their strength, while some find themselves in the possession of higher inferi. Zevn without a pact have a love for bargaining, trickery and taboo exchanges. Almost all intelligent Zevn will try to gather enough maleus to grow up in the Inferi hierarchy.

Subspecies

Striith

Striith are a subspecies of Zevn that align themselves beneath Zar'rokul and Zar'kiel, letting go of their free will to be immortalized in the shape of an animal from the mortal plane to their master's preference. A more common name for Striith among the mortal realm is a familiar. Striith in animal form can retain their sentience and grow beyond their former cognitive capacity.
