====[[Baator]]====
Lawful Evil.
'The Nine Hells' of Baator are the domain of the [[baatezu]] (or 'devils'). There are nine layers to the plane, each more terrible than the previous. Avernus, the first layer, is a land of scorched rock, constantly bombarded by fireballs that tumble out of the sky and is a constant battlefield in the [[Blood War]]; especially when the Demons are pushing back the devils. But try as they might, [[Creed|Bel's tactical genius]] prevents them from ever holding onto any territory on Avernus for more than a day. The fact that Devils are immune to fire and thus aren't bothered by the raining fireballs while Demons merely get fire resistance 10 (though balors are totally immune to it) and get loads of pain from them, and the fact that [[Tiamat]], [[Kurtulmak]] and quite a few other lawful evil gods live here and gladly provide their hordes of petitioners and outsider servants in defense of the realm probably has something to do with it too. Whenever Kurtulmak provides help it will come in the form of a swarm of [[kobold]]s so vast that even the Demons are outnumbered fifty billion to one since so many kobolds die every second.
