Iron Bank

### Summary

An interdimensional bank owned by the Mammon Clan known for its wealth, discretion, and secrecy.

**Iron Bank**, also known as the **Bank of Hell**, is the main bank of the Inferno, the Netherworld, and all demonic creatures. It is considered the most wealthiest bank in the supernatural world and is known for their discretion and secrecy.

## Summary

The Iron Bank was soon after the Great War had ended, though many believed that the bank had been running for thousands of years before it was officially founded. While the exact circumstances behind its founding remain unclear, according to legends, it was found to increase the Mammon Clan's influence and authority after their status as royalty was removed by the second-generation Satans.

Unlike many organizations, facilities, and businesses within the Netherworld, which only provide service to devils and daemon, the Iron Bank does not discriminate against who they work with, whether they are gods, monsters, or even humans, provided that they have proven themselves to be profitable clients.

While there are multiple banks across the supernatural world, with each mythological faction having a bank affiliated with their own faction and pantheon, the Iron Bank is richer and more powerful than the others combined and has a fearsome reputation when collecting debts.

When kings and lords default on their debts or are foolish enough not to honor their agreements with the Iron Bank, the Iron Bank supports new kings and lords to appear, who shall then honor the previous debt along with paying back the money the bank loaned them in claiming their new power, lest they suffer the same fate as their predecessors.

## Appearance

The Iron Bank is an imposing building built of ivory and gold in the shape of a grand cathedral, and before the main entrance is a statue of the original Mammon sitting on a throne made out of skulls and melting gold.

Decorating the bank are enchanted trees made out of Orichalcum, rustling leaves made out of Mithril, and bearing fruits made of Adamantine.

## Organization

Many powerful individuals from multiple factions own shares in the bank. They sit on its secret councils and have a voice in selecting the men who lead it. Officials of the bank proudly display their ceremonial keys on formal occasions as a symbol of prestige, as well as wearing intricate robes of black and gold during meetings.

However, according to Zeus, this is nothing more than mummery, as the true authority within the Iron Bank belonged to the Mammon Clan, especially to their current Head, who is Lord Lorath Mammon, though his siblings, Lys and Myr Mammon, also hold immense influence and authority over the bank.

## Security

The Iron Bank is protected by the personal armies of the Mammon Clan, which consisted of over 50,000 legions of devils and daemon, in addition to the hundreds of mercenaries and magicians employed by the bank to protect its clients. In the money vaults, there are dozens of demonic dragons protecting the valuables inside, each of which estimated to be at least Ultimate-class in terms of power, as well as numerous deadly traps, secret passages, curses, and wards.

Because of the number of immense protections placed upon the bank, both militaristic and magical protections, many have taken to described the bank as "an impenetrable fortress" and "the most secure place in Creation”. According to Euclid, anyone with more than a brain cell in their head will think of literally anything else but to attack the bank.
