** [[{{Asmodeus}} Ashmedai]] is a demon who [[SoulEating consumes souls]] to make himself more powerful. Previously, Ashmedai had abducted several people and left them catatonic, subsequently having decapitated several "Anti-Davidians" and [[DecapitationPresentation piled their heads in a heap]], leaving them for Chris Dundee and Detective Alexis Rohm to discover. [[DemonicPossession Possessing a local businessman]] who had captured Dundee, Rohm, and Rohm's partner, Lucretius Jackson, Ashmedai switches to Jackson's body when his host is killed. As "Jackson", Ashmedai builds the Babylon Casino in order to continue consuming souls. When Dundee, Rohm, and a surviving priest venture out to find a dagger that will defeat him, Ashmedai kills the military personnel holding them at gunpoint before interrogating the party about the whereabouts of an artifact, attempting to kill them when the artifact is revealed to be destroyed. Forty years later, using his surviving abductees as [[CannonFodder disposable manpower]], Ashmedai attempts to possess Dundee, but is thwarted due to Dundee poisoning himself.
