Archduke

== The Archduchy ==
Archdukes are rare in Hell. They are the Wordbound nobles who practically command a princedom already, but who have not yet been confirmed by Lucifer and invested with ineffability. The angel Soldekai, Gabriel’s chief lieutenant and Chamberlain of the Legions of Flame would be accorded the respect due to an archduke.
A demon cannot be granted an archduchy, they must seize it by their own efforts and have it recognized by at least one prince (it should be noted that a declaration of war is a form of recognition). A PC with 18 Forces, a 20+ Word Force Word, and a duchy might be eligible.
Unlike other nobles, archdukes are Superiors ~ they’re just closer to ethereal Superiors than celestial ones.
