## Overview

Allocer, also known as Alloces, is a demon whose title is Great Duke of Hell, and who has thirty-six legions of demons under his command. He induces people to immorality and teaches arts and all mysteries of the sky.

He is described as appearing in the shape of a knight mounted on an enormous horse. His face has leonine characteristics; he has a ruddy complexion and burning eyes; and he speaks with much gravity. He is said to provide good familiars, and to teach astronomy and liberal arts. Allocer is often depicted riding a horse with dragon legs.

## Appearance

Despite being eons of years old, Alloces has the appearance of a handsome young man in his early to mid 20s. He has midnight-blue skin, golden eyes, and long and layered white hair. His skin gets darker in color across his torso and down his arms before lightening once more. He also possesses antler-like horns protruding from the top of his head, which twinkle like glittering stars in the dark of night.

He has a black star marking on his chest, as well as star markings across his face and hands. These star markings are broken up into two layers of design: diamond patterns just below his eyes and a splash of smaller markings that give him the appearance of being freckled, further enhancing his youthful appearance.

Unlike regular Archdaemon, whose eyes an eerily gold whenever they use their demonic power, his eyes turn into a pure white. He sometimes wears a dark cloak with a star symbol on its hood. In the past, whenever he was summoned by mortal invokers, he would wear an intricate armor with a lion-shaped helmet dyed with fresh blood.

As an Archdemon, he possesses a total of four feathered-wings which are dark-blue - the color of the midnight sky - and painted with numerous illuminating stars across them. The tips of his feathers faded into a jet-black as if all colors have been completely drained from it. There are countless number of eyes located on his wings, each being an eerie-looking gold when he use his demonic power.

## Personality

Alloces is mysterious and secretive, but also charming and charismatic. He also claims that he never tells a lie. He is an exceptionally intelligent, cunning, and manipulative individual. He knows when to back down from a fight that cannot be won and is very adept at staying several steps ahead of both his allies and enemies. Unlike his allies and servants, he sees the bigger picture of things and doesn't lie to himself about his intentions.

However, he has also shown a hint of arrogance when he revealed his belief on individuals who cannot be reasoned with, saying that they were simple animals who deserve to be moltivated by fear. Despite thiis, he has shown a dislike of those he considered arrogant, such Tymarsial Bael - the current Lord Bael - who he considered to be "all bites without barks" and only relied on his family's background and power to assert his authority over others. He is also shown to be at least somewhat sadistic, as he happily revealed to Magdaran of his mother's death, even laughing when the young Bael's broke down in tears.

He could be playful, teasing the other Archdaemon during every meeting and his descendant Ajuka whenever they meet. Despite him withholding of information, Alloces switches from playful to quietly furious at the mere mention of King Solomon, indicating that he is quite capable of holding a grudge.

He is often very casual in his body language and mannerisms. From resting on the back of his spectral horse in his projection to communicate with Team DxD in Underworld to his often circular and airy hand gestures, it appears that he is a very casual individual when attempting to gain the favor and loyalty of an ally. Even when committing the act of murder, his body language remains fluid, relaxed, and radiates confidence.

## History

Alloces was originally a Principality-ranked Angel named Arlsiphios whose duty was to design and create the numerous constellations on the sky. During the Heavenly War, he joined the side of Lucifer as he couldn't accept living in the rigid hierarchy on Heaven and thus became an Archdemon after his banishment. In the Abrahamic Underworld, he began to rise up the infernal hierarchy and gain the rank of Duke and served underneth the Emperor of Hell.

He is most known in biblical and occult texts as one of the Ars Goetia - the original 72 Pillars who were summoned and forced into servitute by King Solomon through a divine artifact created by his creator, the Abrahamic God. Under his command, he was forced to teach Solomon's Court Magicians of liberal sciences and astronomy, as well as giving them the knowledge of how to tame beasts, both magical and mundane, and turn them into Familiars.

Sometimes before the Great War, he and the other Progenitor Demons came to the Empress of Hell Lilith and gained a piece of flesh from her to create their own clan and progeny. Alloces became the Progenitor and original Head of the Alocer Clan, named after one of the variations of his name.

Several decades after the Great War, he passed down his title to his child and entered retirement. Despite this, he and the other Archdaemon still control and rule over the Devils and the Netherworld from the shadow, manipulating their descendants and use the Great King Faction as a front, especially after the sealing of the Abrahamic Underworld.

Around 400 years after he entered retirement, his clan came to extinction due to a civil war happening between them and the Caim Clan, Murmur Clan, and Orobas Clan, with the only survivor being his great-granddaughter Mirasfyne Alocer. In secrecy, he took her in as a 'foster daughter', claiming her to be the offspring of a Witch formerly under his employment.

When Mirasfyne married into the branch house of the Astaroth Clan and bore her first and only child, Ajuka, she brought him to Alloces to be raised into a Super Devil, whose power exceed that of a Maou-Class Devil and borderlined Ultimate-Class Cardinal Devil. He then manipulated events behind the scences to allow him to become one of the heroes of the Netherworld Civil War and chosen as one of the new Seven Great Satans, bearing the title of Beelzebub.

According to Ajuka, he found out about this sometimes in his 300s and had cut off his ties with his great-great-grandfather since then.

## Powers and Abilities

**Immense Demonic Power:** Alloces has an immense amount of demonic power beyond that of a Maou-Class Devil. He could generate an amethyst-colored aura around himself that he could cover his attacks and weapons with to increase their overall destructive power.

* **Startouch Crown** (星の王冠, *Hoshi no Ōkan*): The signature power of the Alocer Clan, which allows him to manipulate all aspects of the stars - Self-luminous celestial bodies consisting of a mass of super-heated gas held together by their own gravity in which the energy generated by nuclear reactions in the interior is balanced by the outflow of energy to the surface, and the inward-directed gravitational forces are balanced by the outward-directed gas and radiation pressures. According to Ajuka, following the extinction of the Alocer Clan, all information about this ability was purposefully destroyed by Alloces himself.
	+ **Hamartia Asterie** (ハーマッティア・アスターリー, *Hāmattia Asutārī*): His most powerful technique, which is said to be capable of destroying the solar system and all the beings living within it seven continuous times. He concentrates his authority over the stars and constellations that he had personally constructed as an Angel before disintegrate them, turning them into enormous waves of pure demonic-stellar energy before shaping it into a giant discus of infernal light. The discus will then spinning non-stop, creating a pseudo-vortex with it as the center and devour everything and anything near it, from physical to spiritual to conceptual. After gaining a specific amount of power, it will turn into a giant 'holy lance' and automatically launch itself toward the designated target. Once it hit, it will explode into a supernova comparable to 100 suns combined. According to him, due to the Great War having crippled him like many other Archdaemon, he could only perform this once per 1,000 years. The stars and constellations will also reform by themselves shortly afterward, around 500 years or so.

* **Demonic Constructs:** He could turn energy into tools, objects, weapons and other items, create semi-living constructs and/or creature structures/buildings of varying permanence. His mastery over shaping his demonic energy allows him to use it for almost any situation, creating nearly anything he need.
* **Telekinesis:** He could passively manipulate his demonic energy to control/influence/manipulate/move matter and objects using the power of his mind. He could freely move objects he summons, such as making his chair levitate, flying a rice cup in the air, and more.

* **Inferni-Umbrakinesis:** Mephisto could generate and manipulate pure darkness that is imbued with his own demonic essence, thus making it extremely more effective toward light or divine beings, such as gods and Fallen Angels.
	+ **Darkness Solidification:** He could solidify or give solid-like properties to the infernal darkness he generated with the level of solidity going from loose jelly to metal-like hardness or beyond.
		- **Infernal Darkness Constructs:** He could turn infernal darkness into tools, objects, weapons and other items, and semi-living constructs of varying permanence. In Demon Arc, he was able to create a giant dome surrounding the Satanachia Stadium with a single wave of his hand.
	+ **Infernal Portal Manipulation:** He could create infernal portals out of demonic darkness that lead to different worlds and realities.
* **Shapeshifting:** Alloces could shapeshift his corporeal form, transforming and reshaping it down to the genetic and cellular structure. He could impersonate others or enhance his own body for combat, either by turning into animals, humanoids, monsters, etc. or by making the body stronger. In Chapter XXX, he transformed himself into a fire-breathing, lion-headed, centaur-like monster with griffin wings behind his back.
* **Soul Absorption:** Alloces could absorb the souls of those he killed or gained through contracts to increase his powers and status within the infernal hierarchy. Often, by doing this, his victims will be left in a persistent vegetive state: empty shells that are still alive but irretrievably "gone".
* **Immortality:** Alloces is an immortal being who could live infinitely unless he's either killed or faded.
	+ **Nigh-Invulnerability:** He could not be harmed or killed by unconventional means, as only Enochian or Faustian weapons and magic could be able to harm or kill her. He is also immuned to all curses, poisons, and diseases that aren't angelic or demonic in origins.
	+ **Regeneration:** He possesses an immensely powerful regenerative ability which allows him to instaneously regenerate every and any wound he received on his corporeal form that aren't caused by holy/light weapons and magic. He could easily regenerate himself down to every single cell in mere seconds.

**Immense Strength:** Alloces is an immensely powerful Duke of Hell, being the Progenitor of the Alocer Clan and one of the original 72 Pillars, known in occult texts as the Ars Goetia. His powers exceed the standard Maou-Class used by modern Devils, only being able to be ranked based on the estimation based on the abilities he had demonstrated. He is vastly more powerful than his great-great-grandson Ajuka, one of the current Seven Great Satans and a Super Devil, as shown through his easy victory against him in Underworld, even claiming that none of the current leaders of the Netherworld could defeat him, with the exception of his fellow Archdaemon. According to Ddraig, he is one of the examples of why the supernatural world didn't have any figures from Abrahamic Mythology in the "Top 50 Most Powerful Beings in the Abrahamic Pantheon".

**Master Sorcerer:** Alloces is a Master Sorcerer, possessing immense knowledge of witchcraft and millennia of experience under his belt. According to Azazel, he was the inspiration for many evil wizard figures in humans' fairy tales. He is mentioned as one of the Archdaemon whose fighting styles focused on the combination of witchcraft and demonic power. Despite this, he is still less skilled than other Archdaemon and Devils within Lilith's court when it comes to witchery, such as Naamah or Agrat bat Mahlat.

* **Hex Fire** (六角火, *Rokkaku Hi*): A spell that creates a circle of demonic blue fire capable of burning away traits of mortality and humanity alike.

It could also actively seek out its designated targets and differs from friends and foes.
* **Faerie Metamorphosis** (妖精化, *Yōsei-ka*): An ancient witchcraft ritual created by Alloces that turned pagan deities into natural spirits known as fairies, robbing away their power and divinity, and denouncing their authority. However, despite him being the creator of the spell, he himself had claimed to never personally use it, only making in exchange for the soul of a god.
* **Familiar Creation:** Alloces could create great and powerful Familiars perfectly suited to those who sought after them. In the past, invokers would summon him to be granted familiars, as well as the knowledge of capturing and taming them. In the Great War, his and several other Archdaemon's blood was spilled onto the ground of the Netherworld and created the Familiar Forest. He was the one who instructed Ajuka how to summom a Falak from the Seventh Hell and tame it, turning it into his Familiar.

**Master Manipulator:** Alloces is a Master Manipulator with eons of experience under his belt. Similar to his fellow Archdaemon, he has effectively turned manipulation, scheming, and politics into a form of high-class art. He is one of the true leaders of the Great King Faction, having tricked Zekram Bael into thinking of himself as the shadow leader of the faction while, in actuality, he was nothing more than a mere puppet. According to Mephisto, his consort Viren Katolis and his two stepchildren were once human royalty before they fell under his manipulation and turned into Devils in servitude to him.

**Witch's Pact:** Alloces is the Contracted Demon of multiple witches throughout history, being the main source of power behind many ancient witches in mythology. He is also one of the few Archdemon still creating new Contracted Witches in the modern times. In Netherworld, it was revealed that he was the one who created the witches and demonic beings from the Boiling Isles, as well as the Contracted Demon of its ruler - Emperor Belos.
