Devil, Rosier, the Duchess of Witchcraft

Rosier, the Duchess of Witchcraft
Create (midjourney.com)

Rosier, the Duchess of Witchcraft, is a tall, strikingly beautiful figure with pale, moonlit skin and short white hair. Her piercing eyes, sunken beneath dark brows, glow with cruel intent, and her generous, pouting lips mask a deep, husky voice. Draped in regal, sensual burgundy gowns, she floats slightly off the ground, adorned with luxurious jewelry that signifies her power.

In behavior, Rosier is calculating, seductive, and manipulative, wielding sex as a weapon to control and dominate those around her. She empowers her female servants, known as Witches of Flame, to infiltrate positions of power by manipulating the sexual weaknesses of those in control. Preferring political influence over direct confrontation, she plays a long game of influence, always seeking to turn the tables on those who believe they have the upper hand.

Rosier’s domain lies in the fiery layers of Hell, specifically in Phlegethos, where she is a low-profile Courtier. She rarely engages directly with the infernal hierarchy, preferring to manipulate mortals where her influence can be felt most potently.

Her modus operandi revolves around debasement and corruption, using sexual deviance as a tool to corrupt souls and gain power over individuals. Through her notorious Black Rituals, she binds her followers in a cycle of sexual dominance and soul corruption. Rosier’s ultimate motivation is to strip power from those who wield it sexually and condemn their souls to Hell, cementing her influence both in mortal realms and in the infernal hierarchy.

  • Debilitating Effects: She utilizes her Debased Aura and Infernal Presence to incapacitate key opponents, allowing her allies to capitalize on their vulnerabilities.

Regional Effects of Rosier’s Domain

  1. Seductive Whispers:
    Subtle, alluring whispers echo through the region, tempting individuals to indulge in debauchery. Creatures within 1 mile must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw at the start of each hour or become charmed, feeling an overwhelming urge to seek out pleasure, often leading them to act against their better judgment.
  2. Warped Time:
    Time flows differently in her presence. Creatures that spend more than 24 hours within this region feel as though they have aged a year for every day spent there, affecting their mental and emotional states. Additionally, they must succeed on a DC 18 Wisdom saving throw or develop a long-term fixation on hedonistic pursuits.
  3. Aura of Desire:
    The air becomes charged with an overwhelming sense of longing. Creatures within this area have disadvantage on saving throws against being charmed, and creatures attempting to charm others gain advantage on their checks.

These effects create a compelling atmosphere, reinforcing Rosier’s influence and enhancing the challenges adventurers face in her domain.

Rosier, the Duchess of Witchcraft

In Hell, there is no such thing as love expressed in the act of sex. Indeed, there are few cases of sex as an act of mutual satisfaction for both participants. In Hell, sex is simply another tool to demonstrate power and this is especially the case in the sadistic circle of Phlegethon (Phlegethos), the Fourth Hell. Here, pain and suffering know no bounds, and some of the preferred means of torture revolve around sexual acts. It is within Phlegethon (Phlegethos) that the most practiced manipulators of physical expression and subjugation can be found and near the forefront of these actors is the Duchess of Debauchery, foul Rosier.

Rosier, like most of Phlegethon (Phlegetho’s) Courtiers, counts among those who were cast out of the Realms Above during The Great Fall. Prior to The Great Fall, Rosier was a great patron of love and the expression of love during acts of sex. She oversaw the weddings of great paragons of goodness and offered blessings to those who, despite all manner of hardship, overcame adversity to be with those they loved. During this time, Rosier was truly beautiful, possibly the most beautiful angel in the ophanim choir after bright Belial, perfect Beelzebul, and glorious Tifereth. It was this beauty that brought Rosier into Perdition.

Rosier was bitter. Like many angels, Rosier avoided liaisons with mortals. For a long time, Rosier honored this tradition, in no small part due to her growing contempt for the ugly creatures she was required to look after. Indeed, Rosier viewed acts of “love” among mortals as lies. Such interactions, although blessed by expressions of true love and devotion, were often shallow infatuations when initiated by mortals who beheld only the visual appeal. She witnessed numerous marriages established for political gain, often times with women forced to marry much older men who tended to have numerous mistresses while they themselves were condemned to being trinkets for their husbands. Rosier became convinced that mortals could not achieve the true love angelic beings exhibited and simply used the word “love” as a ploy to promote their own ends.

Rosier’s jaded attitude initially prompted her to simply accomplish her established duties, but eventually she sought to investigate her beliefs, her disgust transforming into intrigue. Rosier was pleased to find that her opinions were often justified, particularly among the nobility and those in power. But, despite the numerous examples of true love and commitment she witnessed, Rosier was convinced of her position regarding mortal love. To prove her hypothesis, Rosier began to tempt mortal women to give their bodies to those in positions of power in return for greater influence. Stunning, and condemning, results bolstered Rosier’s beliefs and she could well have turned away from pursuing her darkening road. Instead, Rosier promoted ever greater obscene acts, granting personal power to those women (and few men) who aided her in her cause. Indirectly, Rosier found herself controlling entire countries through her servants and their sex. Rosier’s hatred for her initial task and her newfound proof of mortal lowliness made her easy prey for Eblis and Beelzebul when they instigated The Great Fall.

Rosier was among the first to join with the rebel angels, believing that the Sarim were fools coddling to gods and mortals. Although it is a certainty that her obscene acts would have eventually come to light, the casting out of the rebel angels expedited Rosier’s decent into perdition. Rosier found herself, along with the majority of the Fallen, in the Nine Hells of Perdition. Initially in shock at her new station, Rosier was drawn to Phlegethon (Phlegethos) and the banner of Belial. In Belial, Rosier believed she found true love for he took her under his wing as she cowered in fear. It is known that for a long time, Rosier was a favorite of Belial as he rose through the ranks of Phlegethon (Phlegethos)’ Court. Up until the moment he overthrew the previous Lord of the Fourth, Belial kept Rosier at his side, using her and numerous other Fallen to bolster his own strength. Upon his ascension as the Lord of Pains and Suffering, Belial revealed to Rosier and the others his infidelities and forced them under his yolk. Betrayed even by another of her kind, Rosier abandoned any remaining vestige of morality and became the first of Belial’s Dukes of Hell.

Rosier is dedicated to using sex in the pursuit of power. To Rosier, no act is too heinous in the pursuit of control over one’s destiny, and acts of sexual deviance, more than any other, truly reveal just how much an individual is willing to sacrifice in pursuit of power. Rosier tends to prefer female servants, often referred to as Witches of Flame, since women are often viewed as weaker than men in most humanoid cultures and, therefore, wield less power. Women, often sexually objectified, are empowered by Rosier to use their sex to manipulate those in power. Thus, these Witches soon become the true powers behind the crowns of major civilizations. More to the point, Rosier seeks to strip the power from those who thought they were in control sexually and condemn their souls to Hell.

In Hell, Rosier is a relatively low-profile Courtier in spite of her background with Belial. She finds a great deal more pleasure with mortals, a stark contrast to her attitudes when she was an angel. When she does appear in the Court of Phlegethon (Phlegethos), Rosier is known to have only one ally among the Courtiers: Carniveau. While Rosier seeks to use sex to gain political power, Carniveau seeks to encourage a tightening of sexuality, turning sex into a sinful, deplorable aspect of existence. This attitude works well for Rosier since it allows her Witches to accuse those in their way of debauchery. In spite of their complementary goals and alliance, both Carniveau and Rosier are eager to subsume the other’s responsibilities as soon as possible. Aside from Carniveau, Rosier deals well with Fierana, the Arch-Devil of Passion. Although incalculably older than Belial’s daughter, Rosier has learned much from Fierana. Unlike her relationship with Fierana, Rosier does not have a healthy relationship with Lilith, the Lord of the Sixth. Lilith and Rosier both heavily rely on female servants, although for different ends. While Rosier simply seeks to insert women into positions of power through their sex, Lilith seeks to rob women of their natural make-up regardless of whether or not they attain greater power. Lilith would like nothing better than to subsume Rosier and become the Goddess of Witches. To date, only Belial’s support has kept Lilith from destroying Rosier. Belial himself routinely seeks to bed Rosier in order to remind her of her servitude. However, Rosier believes that by allowing her Lord to use her in such a fashion that she grows ever more powerful. Indeed, Belial has yet to tire of her and continues to support and protect her, so perhaps Rosier’s ploy is working. Interestingly, Rosier seems to have no clear stance regarding the Demon Lady of Lust, Babylona, instructing her servants to avoid the Demon’s followers. The reason behind Rosier’s attitude is unclear, although it is possible that the Duchess of Witchcraft is either hoping to forge a truly unholy alliance with Babylona or hopes to lull the Demon into a false sense of security before striking against her.

Rosier appears as a tall, very handsome, slender woman with short white hair and pale skin. Her eyes, like twin moons, are sunken under dark brows, and she has a generous, pouting mouth. Rosier tends to wear stately, yet sensual, burgundy gowns, and is often bedecked with classy jewelry. Although she has long since lost her wings, Rosier floats about 3 feet off the ground (apparently, she can still fall and cannot rise any higher without aid). Rosier always carries the Wand of the Chaste, and speaks in a surprisingly deep, husky voice.

Combat

Rosier is not much of a melee fighter, and always seeks to position herself as far away from physical combat as possible. In such situations, Rosier will usually begin combat by surrounding herself with her Infernal Presence and her Debased Aura. She will then seek to mass charm her opponents before summoning reinforcements. She will then turn to her Wand of the Chaste and Rites of the Flesh.

Assassin Spells known (5/5/4/1; base DC 17 + spell level, 19 + spell level for Evil spells. Caster level 22 nd ):

  1. detect poison, feather fall, obscuring mist, true strike;
  2. cat’s grace, pass without trace, spider climb, undetectable alignment;
  3. deep slumber, false life, nondetection;
  4. freedom of movement, modify memory.

Black Ritual (Su): To Rosier, sex is simply a tool solely to be used in the acquisition of power, especially for those who are among the political minority within a social system. Through sexual favors, Rosier believes that a power-hungry individual can acquire whatever she seeks and that no act is too obscene or extreme in order to ensure greater puissance. Many, particularly women and courtesans of either gender, are drawn to Rosier, believing that the Mistress of Favors can grant them power over those with a weakness for the pleasures of the flesh.

Once per day, Rosier may oversee a Black Ritual. When a Black Ritual is called, Rosier’s servants gather together, often with enthralled servants, to engage in sexual acts. Many of these acts are quite obscene. Everything from children to animals are used in these Rituals, marking them as truly vile. Although there are many trappings associated with the Black Ritual, what really matters is that either Rosier and/or at least three couples engage in some manner of sexual activity for at least nine minutes. Celebrants hoping to gain power from Rosier must engage in sexual activity with either an uninitiated person or with an unwilling individual (for the purposes of Black Ritual, an enchanted being is considered unwilling). At the moment of sexual release, Rosier unleashes her power to the celebrants sworn to her within 90 feet. What power the celebrant receives depends upon the nature of the being with whom she has copulated as detailed below (these benefits stack and last for nine days):

Bestiality/Pedophilia: The celebrant receives a +1 bonus to DCs for enchantment spells and a +2 bonus to all Charisma based skill checks. animals are treated on a two-for-one basis for HD to levels for higher Ritual benefits. Thus, a brown bear (6HD) would only provide the bonuses of coupling with a 3 HD creature. Those who are forced to participate in a Black Ritual suffer the effects of Rites of the Flesh (described below). In spite of its benefits, the power released by Black Ritual does not come without a price. Once the celebrant tastes the sweetness of the Black Ritual, she is driven to sexually dominate a new person at least once every 9 days in another Black Ritual. If she cannot accomplish this, she must make a Will save DC 30. If she fails the save, she suffers 2 points of Charisma damage; if she succeeds, she must make another save 9 days later unless she succeeds in corrupting another in a Black Ritual. Second, the decrepitude of a soul who engages in this heinous ritual is such that the forces of good automatically sense a wrongness in the character. Good-aligned, divine spellcasters receive a +2 bonus on Sense Motive checks per each level of Black Ritual through which the celebrant participated. A paladin automatically detects evil when within 20 feet of a celebrant who participated in Black Ritual over the past three months (although she cannot pin point the evil precisely, the paladin detects evil as if the celebrant were a cleric).

Once a person partakes in ‘Black Ritual, the only way to cleanse the soul is for an Atonement to be cast by a 21 st level cleric of good alignment. After which, the penitent must complete a goodly quest within nine days. Those who fail are immediately struck with Rites of the Flesh.

There are persistent rumors that Rosier has taught a few very powerful witches the secret to casting Black Ritual. If so, this is sure to be an epic level spell. Less powerful versions of the Black Ritual can be emulated by means of a wish or miracle spell (as revealed by Rosier); in such a case the Will save DC for any effects is 18.

Benefits of a Black Ritual by Hit Dice of Associated Creature
HD/Level of Uninitiated/Unwilling CreatureBenefit
1-5The celebrant gains the ability to cast charm person 1/ day as a 5th level sorcerer
6-10The celebrant gains the ability to cast suggestion 1/day as a 10th level sorcerer

16-20The celebrant gains the ability to cast dominate person 1/ day as a 20th level sorcerer
21+The celebrant gains the ability to cast dominate monster 1/day as a 21st level sorcerer

Call Devils (Sp): Once per day, Rosier can automatically call 12 lemures, 8 barbazu or erinyes, 6 hamatulas or osyluths, 4 cornugons or gelugons, or 2 pit fiends. Since these devils are called rather than summoned, they have the ability to summon their own reinforcements if so ordered. Conversely, 3/day Rosier may summon 12 lemures, 8 barbazu or erinyes, 6 hamatulas or osyluths, 4 cornugons or gelugons, or 2 pit fiends. Rosier may either call or summon in a day; she may not do both. Rosier hates calling devils, finding them repellent. If she must, Rosier will try to call only erinyes, but if truly threatened, she will not hesitate to summon pit fiends.

Debased Aura (Su): Rosier is perhaps one of the most heinous Courtiers of Perdition in the minds of most clerics and other good-aligned, divine spellcasters. Her dedication to perverting acts of love and procreation into something to acquire power and manipulate the weak make her especially despised. It is said that Rosier simultaneously exudes a sensuality mixed with the highest degrees of offense. Her very presence is a blight against the souls of good-aligned spellcasters.

Rosier is surrounded by a Debased Aura, adversely affecting any spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities cast by good-aligned divine spellcasters or angelic beings. All such effects cast within 90 feet of Rosier require that the caster succeed in a Concentration check DC 30. Even if the check succeeds, all effects (like duration, damage, etc.) are only half as effective as they would otherwise be. If Rosier is confronted within one hour after conducting a Black Ritual, the Concentration check is made at a -3 penalty and the effects are only one-quarter effective.

Furthermore, any good-aligned creature within 10 feet of Rosier must make a Fortitude save DC 30 each round or become nauseated by the seductive evil that wafts, from her person.

Infernal Presence (Su): Rosier’s Infernal Presence has a Will save DC of 31. Her caster level is 39th .

Rites of the Flesh (Su): Rosier may affect a powerful curse known as Rites of the Flesh. This terrible curse effectively makes all acts of pleasure, from eating to a massage to sex, an act of turmoil and pain.

Once per day, Rosier can infect any creature she selects within 30 feet of her person when he calls on the Rites of the Flesh. Targets receive a Will save DC 30. Those who fail immediately suffer 2 points of Constitution and Charisma damage. Otherwise, there seems to be no adverse impact. However, each day, the victim receives another Will saving throw. If he fails, the victim is affected by Rites of the Flesh. Not only does he suffer another 2 points of Constitution and Charisma, he finds that any act of physical pleasure (including, but not limited to, eating or sex) results in pain and anguish that lasts for one day as per symbol of pain cast by a 39th level caster. Simultaneously, the victim becomes obsessed with the need to seek out a witch or other servant of Rosier, if not Rosier herself in order to receive succor for the pain. The victim receives a Will save DC 30 to ignore this call. Those who succumb find themselves doing anything to find the appropriate person. In most cases, the victim must carry out some kind of favor for the witch, which may or may not include selling one’s soul to Rosier or attempting to blackmail a person in authority through sex. It is unknown how the victim tracks down a witch. Each day that the victim either ignores the call to seek succor from a witch or does not receive it, another save must be made; if failed, the victim suffers another 2 points of Constitution and Charisma damage that cannot be healed unless the curse is removed.

Perhaps most chilling about this curse is the fact that those suffering from Rites of the Flesh can “infect” others with its power. If the victim engages in sexual relations with another, that new individual must make a Will save DC 30 or suffer Rites of the Flesh. In short order, an entire cross-section of a population can be wracked with Rites of the Flesh and subservient to the will of Rosier. Furthermore, those who suffer from Rites of the Flesh as victims of a Black Ritual may well find their souls consigned to Hell under the auspices of Rosier in the event that they die during the course of the affliction.

Those suffering from Rites of the Flesh must seek out a powerful good-aligned spellcaster dedicated to a god of love in order to overcome this dreadful curse. The cleric must be of at least 21 st level and must cast atonement, remove curse, and greater restoration in immediate succession. The victim must then remain chaste for at least seven days; if she fails, Rites of the Flesh returns where it was initially stalled.

Witch Spells known (6/9/9/8/8/8/8/7/6/4; base DC 20 + spell level, 22 + spell level for Evil spells. Caster level 38 th ):

Wand of the Chaste: In witches covens and other occult circles, Rosier’s Wand of the Chaste is an infamous totem of power. The Wand of the Chaste was initially a gift given to Rosier by the Seven Virtues. When she was cast out of Heaven during The Great Fall, the Wand, initially used to uphold acts of true love and commitment, was spoiled into an evil, minor artifact.

The Wand of the Chaste strikes as a large +5 unholy heavy mace; in addition, a strike from the Wand also deals 2 points of Charisma damage to an opponent (as if a double strength humiliating enhancement had been placed on the wand). On a successful critical hit, the Charisma damage is permanent. Thrice per day, Rosier may call on the Wand to cast eagle’s splendor as a 20 th level caster. Once per day, the Wand may be used to cast mass eagle’s splendor as a 20th level caster. Rosier may cause the Wand to cause a Charisma penalty rather than provide bonuses when using its eagle’s splendor powers at double potency; a Will save DC 29 negates this effect.

The Wand of the Chaste is more accurately described as a rod. Bearing the general shape of a large phallus, the Wand seems to be carved from ivory. Intricate designs and runes run along the surface. The head of the Wand is adorned with a stylized, androgynous dualface. On one side, the face is decidedly fiendish, but still attractive, while the other side is horrific in appearance. Rosier has been known to loan the Wand to servants who have pleased her, although she seems capable of recalling it to her hands in such cases at a whim and across the Realities. In the event that the Wand is stolen, Rosier must track it down through mundane means. Any good-aligned being that holds or attempts to wield the Wand suffer 2 negative levels; furthermore, any being that touches the Wand without Rosier’s express permission must make a Fortitude save DC 29 or suffer Rites of the Flesh.

Possessions: Rosier always carries the Wand of the Chaste. She also wears an amulet of the planes, +8 bracers of armor, and a +5 ring
of protection
. As a Duchess of Hell, she is known to have access to a great deal more wealth.

Summoning Rosier

Rosier demands that sexual acts occur as a somatic component of any spell used to summon her; furthermore, fully half the participants must be unwilling (charmed or dominated creatures count as unwilling). These acts of debauchery must continue throughout the summoning, and all but the chief summoner must continue in this fashion throughout the audience with Rosier. Moans of ecstasy herald Rosier’s arrival, as a lotus blossom of huge proportions breaks free of the soil, with Rosier rising from the midst of it. Her every action as she speaks with the summoner is seductive and inviting.

Rosier will almost always offer to perform a Black Ritual for the summoner; indeed, if the price is right (e.g. the summoner is willing to swear his soul to her), she participates with the summoner in a very personal manner. Upon making any agreements, or the summoning expiring, Rosier descends back into the lotus blossom, which then sinks back into the ground. The soil or rock from whence the lotus blossom rose thereafter bears a symbol representing Rosier unclad; any intelligent creature which looks on the symbol is targeted by a suggestion that they bed the nearest creature (Will save DC 14 negates). The symbol disappears after 4 days.
