Eblis (Pour la patrie)

Eblis was a demonic entity, and the sworn enemy of god. Aristide Montarval and the Supreme Council of the League of Progress were his servants.
== Biography ==
=== Paris, 1931 ===
Aristide Montarval performed a ritual summoning. Eblis appeared before him, and Montarval asked him for orders. Eblis told him to go to Quebec to destroy the last refuge of the Catholic Church.
=== Ottawa, 1946 ===
While parliamentary debate went on over the bill, Montarval retired to a secret Satanic temple, and called forth Eblis once more. Weakened this time, Eblis was not able to fully manifest, and his voice sounded as though it came from afar. Eblis explained that he was unable to intervene. Montarval would have to carry the day himself.
On Mars 26th, 1946, the government fell after George Vaughan crossed the floor with seven allies. Montarval left parliament, and shot himself in the head in a suicide attempt. It failed, and Montarval was surrounded by Joseph Lamirande and his allies. While Lamirande tried to perform a deathbed conversion to save Montarval's soul, Montarval refused and repudiated God, begging for but not receiving assistance from Eblis, and shortly after died screaming as his soul went to hell.
