Rex / Regina Daemon

Rex & Regina Daemons are a type of hellspawn within the novel ''Dark Blaze. ''They are the most powerful form of daemon within the novel. The vast power difference between these daemons and their legates speaks to a fact that the rexes and reginas must have consumed infinitely more souls than them to remain in their position of power in such a place as Hell.

Background:
Darryl M. Finch-Ellis wanted various forms of daemons with differing waves of powers. He made the rex and regina daemons the most powerful daemons that reside in Hell and are oft secluded to the Domain of the Damned. With the immense library of daemons at his hands, Finch-Ellis decided to classify which daemons would be rulers of portions of Hell which they had carved out for themselves and which daemons were subservient to them as either iustos or legates.

Amongst the names Finch-Ellis knew would be nothing less than rexes and reginas were Azazel, Balam, Beezlebub and Lilith. He has also hinted that certain Polytheist deities that were connected to the Underworld could also be rex or regina daemons in their own right.

Origins:
Being the original rulers of Hell since the dawn of time until the fallen angels arrived and Lucifer took charge of this chaotic realm, the rex and regina daemons have only increased in power from their centuries of consuming souls and twisting them into their own personal servants and slaves under their immense power.

Characteristics:
Not much is known about rexes and reginas, except that they are the most powerful of the daemonic species.
