Samigina Clan

## Samigina

The **Samigina Clan** is one of the 72 Pillars of the Netherworld. Ranked at the fourth of the pentagram, the house holds the title of [Marquis] in the infernal hierarchy.

## Summary

The Samigina Clan is one of the original 72 Pillars of the Netherworld. They are descendants of the original Samigina, the fourth demon summoned by Solomon and was bestowed the title of [Marquis] by the wise prophet-king.

Unlike other noble houses who are always in-fighting to raise their influence and authority, the Samigina has always been neutral in all the inter-houses conflicts between the 72 Pillars, only interfering into the fight if they are directly provoked or the fate of their house is involved.

The only conflicts they willingly participated in are the Great War, in which they fought in the demons' name, and the Devil Civil War, in which they joined the Anti-Satan Faction after their head was publicly humiliated by the Second Satan Asmodeus. However, after the Devil Civil War, they joined the Kings' Right Hand due to personal favors from the Sitri Clan and the Astaroth Clan.

## Emblem

The Samigina Clan's royal emblem consists of a two-headed horse on an eagle body, a golden crown laid on each head, while their talons clutched a whisp-like ball representing the soul. On formal documents, a wax emblem of the noble house features two horse heads with a small crown in between.

## Hereditary Abilities

### King of Souls

**King of Souls**, also called **Soul Eater**, is the Samigina Clan's signature housecarl, which allows them to consume shades and life-force of the living to empower themselves. They can absorb the natural spiritual energy found in the environment, thus granting them a near-unlimited source of power in the mortal world, as they can easily convert it into infernal energy through this special housecarl.

It is described as the [Power of Passion] as it manifests differently based on a Samigina's characteristics and personal hobbies. For example, both Naud Gamigin and his bastard son Luka can manipulate the shades of the dead through their music, whereas Naud's older brother Ryvell and his oldest sons, Ayrdos and Yrves, can imbue life-force into handmade objects they personally created to give them semi-sentient and supernatural abilities.

## Locations

### Ancestral Seat

**Palace of Gamygyn** is the ancestral seat of the Samigina Clan, located north from the capital of the Samigina Clan's Territory. It is a large palace estimated to be one-fifth the size of Paris, or about 21,08 km² in size, and heavily resembles the Palace of Versaille in terms of architectural designs. It is considered the center of political affairs in their territory.

Located in the Palace of Gamygyn is the **Court of White Mirrors**, a great chamber famous for its mirror-covered walls. Prior to her sealing, the original Samigina would hold trials and judge the souls of artists and musicians who have sold their souls for demons in exchange for their unnatural talents.

### Samigina Territory

**Samigina Territory**, also called **Checkersfield** by the Netherworld natives, is the Netherworld territory ruled by the Samigina Clan. It is famous for being one of the devils' centers for the fine arts, having the largest number of art galleries located in the Netherworld, as well as being the home for the [Gamigin Institute of Design], an art school funded by the Samigina Clan known for having one of the the best art programs in the entire supernatural world.
