== Biography ==
=== Background ===
According to verified Valen history, Astaroth was once an immortal being once known as Regane, born from the goddess Arnasia to rule over the realm called Ceyraholt. Ceyraholt was formerly higher plane than the Supreme's first creation, that later known as Nexus Prime itself.
She intended Regane to thrive with an undying love for the realm and a desire to keep the degrading Valenthia safe, and both he and the denizens of his realm came to regard mortality as a curse. Regane knew that he himself was not mortal, and feared the possibility of his beloved people's extinction, leaving him alone in Ceyraholt that housed the rotting nation known as Valenthia.
The Supreme saw the future of this endeavour, that Regane and his people would never cease in their quest, regardless of violence and brutality. Foreseeing that this ambition would someday threaten all creation and that Regane would someday seek to challenge the Father himself, Supreme made Osiris sealed off Ceyraholt from all other realms (Exterior and Heaven), and was thrown to the Underworld, or Hell; Which was verbally ordered by Arnasia in absolute heresy.
Regane saw this act as an unforgivable betrayal by his creator, directing his fury at the barriers that encircled his domain as his trusted people continued to fall to die. He became the Supreme's nemesis, bulking himself so much, and mortified with immeasurable sin and guilt made him a devil, affiliating him with a duo, that became the Evil Trinity; Maintaining an eternal grudge between the Supreme and Arnasia herself. Osiris didn't actually know there was a defector in the immortal race aside from Lucifer Servius.
=== Enforcer of Hell ===
The Devil known as Astaroth, has ruled hell alongside Lucifer Servius and Samael as the Evil Trinity, a faction consisting of three individuals that are ultimately the Devils of the planet Nexus Prime, that has one primary purpose; To serve the place of eternal torment and suffering. Including death. A majority of the captives are under the impression that he is a fire demon, not an entity; Mainly due to him ruthlessly killing and burning them with intense heat.
To all who knows, The Devil was only considered to be a single diabolical figure; They view Samael and Astaroth as masqueraders, though Mephistopheles was in fact the true imposter of the Devil himself. Astaroth was widely portrayed by religions; As a gigantic fire demon who annihilates the innocent mortals with his impeccable strength, ruthlessness and bloodlust. He has no morals except for loyalty to those allied with him; Some say he is the personal enforcer of the Devil.
== Personality ==
Betrayed by his own creator, stripped of most of his power and even name, Regane was imprisoned for millennia which made him swear vengeance against his servants and everything he created. Malevolent and enraged, he willingly transformed himself into a Devil known as Astaroth; Absolutely showing no mercy towards others and is willing to kill billions and destroy entire empires for the sake of revenge and genocide.
As the Enforcer of Hell, Astaroth is well-known for his endlessly brutal and ferocious nature, remorselessly killing opponents a quarter his size and notably enforcing the eternal torture and tenacious murdering of Hell's captive sinners. He is sometimes referred to as "Raging Devil", having an unquenchable bloodlust that he releases through acts of immeasurable violence and rage. Typically short-tempered and never shows any fear of acting on it, since no one on the Underworld is skilled enough to stop him. One of the only people he has ever shown any loyalty or respect toward is his fellow diabolical counterparts, as the Evil Trinity. He is obviously loyal to Samael and Lucifer Servius, following their atrocities on the Underworld. His extremely violent and ruthless personality had even skyrocketed after his betrayal.
