Army of the Damned

"None will escape the coming darkness"

~motto of the AOD

The Army of the Damned is a prominant antagonist race/group in Jaredthefox92's Sonic fan series, Flawed Deities, as well as his original series, Unholy Crusade. It is the personal fighting force of the Demon Prince known as Arnzarel. It is a nightmarish horde of not only undead legions of zombies consisting of various Mobian species, but also demonic horrors and flat out monsters as well. The goal of the Army of the Damned is to rebel against the gods and the Mobians who worship them, thus to intact revenge from being shunned by their creators.

Policies
The Army of the Damned acts in many ways accustomed to what one would expect for a nightmarish horde of monsters. While there is obvious command structure via Arnzarel and his "children" members of the AOD are known to commit various and unspeakable atrocities all while under the sanction of Arnzarel.It is believed however that Arnzarel is ironically a fair and just leader, (for a demon prince anyway) that is very democratic in his command.If a member proves itself competent and useful Arnzarel ensures that said individual gets well rewarded and stays loyal to him.

Religion
The Army of the Damned follow heretical, demonic, and pseudo-religious practices that defy or even denounce the gods themselves.Various religious practices are allowed by it's members as long as the forces under Arnzarel remain loyal to him.This includes witchcraft,rat tribes, and even Jotnar, (frost giant) religions.

Base of Operations
"The coldest places of Hell are the safest sanctuary from the gods." Ever since their founding Arnzarel and his children has migrated his forces to the cold and isolated country of Uralia. There he has set up his own demonic fortress within the Uralian Mountains. This citadel permeates with demonic energy and it is known that countless horrors,(including Arnzarel's undead legions) reside in this fortress.

Habitat
The Frigid and snow glassed mountains of Uralia have actually provided a safe-haven for these undead and demonic forces of Arnzarel, (many of whom are actually accustomed to and even thrive within cold temperatures and icy covered terrain.) Various members of the AOD require specific living conditions, spells, and environments to rest and rejuvenate so the chambers of Arnzarel's castle houses specific environments suitable for the garrisoning of his forces.

History
After Arnzarel's transformation from an echidna shaman into a hideous and revolting demon prince he has sought to gain allies for a crusade against the mortal forces and the same gods who have turned him into a monster. Throughout the ages he has been studying and learning how to not only increase his own power, but others as well. Eventually he used this knowledge to bolster his own ranks and create his personalized fighting force that would one day be capable of bringing down the very heavens.With his first offensive in Soumerica faltering, Arnzarel decided to head east to the mountainous peaks of Uralia in order to amass his own personal fighting force.

Eventually Arnzarel and his children settled down in this area and with a few years work and a hefty amount of magic,(with the help of their undead and frost giant allies) they were able to construct a massive and well kept fortess deep within the Uralian Mountains.
