Not even considered worthy of the name “devil,” these lowly creatures are forced to make their own way through Hell. The Ears of Hell are those imps who have managed to find a powerful patron among the Courtiers of Perdition, and they strive to make their wretched lives somehow worthwhile to that master, in the hopes of great reward.
The Ears of Hell are in constant competition with devils, which have the advantage of being devils true. Even so, the Ears often manage to make themselves useful. Since they are not bound by the same laws that govern actual devils, they can make their abusive presence known on the Prime much easier. Many an Ear of Hell has become an infernal spy upon a foolhardy mage that desired a familiar. And so, the Ears shuttle information back to their dread masters in Perdition, keeping them informed of the happenings of the Prime Material.
