Viralesmalum
(viral evil)
Viralesmalum's horns spread infinitely in all directions.
Viralesmalum is one of the smartest demons and that's saying a lot considering the high intelligence in a large portion of the demon population. With it's clever and manipulative abilities, you would not want to deal with Viralesmalum in person.
Fortunately for humanity, Viralesmalum is one of the slowest demons when it comes to the possession process. In addition to being slow, sometimes the possession process doesn't take hold and their apparent next "vehicle" can simply walk away with their soul intact.
The fascinating and defining feature of Viralesmalum is it's ability to possess multiple people at once. Some speculate that it can potentially possess an unlimited number. In the dark ages, Viralesmalum is said to have possessed thousands of people at once (It's estimated between 250,000 and 500,000 possessed individuals). At this high level of possession, it begins to spread like a virus because what it lacks in speed it makes up for in sheer bulk.
Viralesmalum will continue to possess human forms in order to create an army of demon-beings to protect the unborn devil child. Viralesmalum will build a possessed army. While consisting of thousands of people, this group is in essence still a single entity. Therefore the group functions with a hive mind or group mind. This is a single, conscious, intelligence inhabiting many bodies. Communication between the possessed entities is almost telepathic and functions through eye contact.
Viralesmalum has the amazing ability to utilize the memories, skills, emotions and physical abilities of the host body. This is the key to Viralesmalum's manipulative nature. By not "seeming possessed" to those around, it can remain unnoticed as it's slow possession process takes hold. A famous example is the Salem Witch Trials. The power class from government officials, clergy and wealthy land owners were possessed and convinced the masses to murder their only hope - the witches.
A possessed female will need to copulate with a non-possessed human male in order to conceive the devil child. The Devil must be born on Earth in human form in order to open the gates of Hell on Earth. Evil wants to be alive in the world of form.
Viralesmalum likes to have fun messing with humans and other demons. But ultimately, it has one core mission. It wants to bring the Devil into the Earthly plain. This of course, would usher in the end times by quite literally making Earth a living Hell.
