Azazel was granted dominion over the power of Darkness by King Gabriel. Originally intended to keep Darkness under control, Azazel eventually embraced it fully.
Having existed since before recorded history, Azazel possesses knowledge of forgotten civilizations, secrets, and supernatural forces long lost to humanity.
Unlike Priest, who relies on brute force, Azazel prefers manipulation, long-term planning, and indirect control. His schemes often unfold over years or centuries.
Azazel commands followers, demons, and organizations that work toward his objectives throughout the modern era.
During the Age of Darkness, King Gabriel the Red arrived to help humanity survive a demonic invasion. Gabriel fought beside his sons: Kronos, Azazel, and Priest. Following humanity's liberation, Gabriel divided the world among them. Azazel was given dominion over the East and entrusted with the power of Darkness.
Over time, Azazel became increasingly cruel and controlling. He allowed demons to torment his people and used gifted powers to manipulate others like puppets. His actions placed him at odds with his brother Kronos.
Azazel and Priest eventually embraced Darkness completely, marking themselves with dark tribal markings to increase their power. Together they defeated Kronos before Gabriel intervened, sacrificing his own life force so Kronos could become the Red Angel.
The resulting conflict became known as the War of the Brothers. Kronos ultimately emerged victorious, banishing Azazel into Darkness.
In modern times, Azazel secretly operates under the identity of Prime Meridian, allowing him to influence world events while remaining hidden from humanity.
Following Eric Roy's transformation into the Enforcer, Azazel begins actively advancing his plans once again. His influence spreads through organizations, followers, and supernatural forces as he prepares for the conflict ahead.
