Namaru

The House of Namaru, also known by thier modern sobriequet Devils, are the former heralds of God in Demon: The Fallen. Becoming the leaders of the rebellion against Him, the Devils began to use humans more than help them. When they fell, they were cast into the Abyss like the other rebelling angels. After the Abyss cracked and the Fallen could escape, the Devils turned to using their former allies in the same way they once manipulated people while still influencing mortals.
Lucifer is the most famous Devil, having lead the rebellion against God. His current wherabouts are unknown.
==Purpose and Curse==
The Namaru were the first Elohim to be created, and were made for one purpose: to serve as the voice and messengers of God by which he would command all others. The Bel served as overseers, leaders, and even punishers for God, while the Nusku controlled both the physical element of fire and the sacred fire of Faith that was placed in humanity.
The Namaru were the last house to present themselves during the Fall. They were represented by Lucifer. A new kind of Namaru, the Qingu, appeared shortly there after to inspire humans to new heights of greatness.
Showing His wrath at their role in the Fall, God did not actually curse the Namaru. Instead, He ignored them completely, showing His complete contempt for them.
==Faction Alignments==
It should serve as no surprise that many Devils choose to follow their former leader and become Luciferans. The least popular option among them is the Ravener; they simply wanted to control creation, not destroy it.
==Weakness==
Devils are frequently reminded of the power they once held in Heaven and are constantly reminded that they are no longer there. They tend to foolish acts of bravery in order to recapture the feeling of importance they had. Additionally, devils suffer from the knowledge that they used to be the heralds, messengers between God and the rest of the angels. Without God or Lucifer, they no longer have any messages but their own to spread, and they fear that the Fallen may realise they do not need the devils in power any longer.
==Background information==
Namaru is the ancient Akkadian language word meaning "to shine".
