Some of the choices are Devils and not Demons...
Belial, Archdevil and Lord of the Fourth Hell, would be fun and interesting.

"The very best possible post-fourteenth-century Realms lets down those who love the specific, detailed social, political and magical situation, with its thousands of characters, developed over forty years, and want to learn more about it; and those who'd be open to a new one with equal depth, which there just isn't time to re-produce; and those repelled, some past the point of no return, by the bad-taste-and-plausibility gap of things done to the world when its guardianship was less careful."

Graz'zt. He's a handsome devil  and he's got good genes - chances of turning into a demipower are above average? |

| Levistus is my favorite, but he's not on your list, so I chose Pazuzu. |

Given Pazuzu's particularly perverse enjoyment in tempting mortals, he does make an interesting choice. |

I just had a random thought - what would happen if Lolth's female and male avatar got hooked up? |

I think Lolth could spawn a child with divine power. In real world mythologies deities spawn children
without actually having sex. Aren't there tieflings that are descended from Beshaba? I wouldn't personally
consider archfiends deities, however.
Graz'zt because i'd want to be sexy = D Graz'zt seems like the most attractive demon to me.
(like many of you have said already) I'd also prefer to then be living in the realms or some prime world.
Or possibly Sigil where I wouldn't get discriminated against for being a cambion or tiefling.
NOT in hell, the Abyss, or whatever.
Although the Asmodeous is also attractive...the Asmodeous would keep tabs on me and I wouldn't like that : [ I'd want my sire's eyes not to be on me. |

I wouldn't mind, for it is but temporary. In due time, it will I who's going to control him. |

Laraie or Mastiphal I like as a father because of their primal hunter like qualities. Malcanthet or Glassya I'd like as my mother, because of their cunning.
Chose Pazuzu, he's awesome and flight is aswell. Always handy to be able to summon him at a whim. |

-If they cut down on the contrived "He's Satan!" and "Angels vs. Demons" concepts, I'd be able to stomach it more. My girlfriend and I were reading that particular graphic novel the other day, and I noticed that it dated Mystique meeting with Azazel and giving birth to Nightcrawler as '20 years ago', and I am assuming they meant from the present date. That's either an error, or a retcon making Nightcrawler only 20! It was nice to seeing Abyss again, though, even if it was very obviously not his Age of Apocalypse version. |
