Dagon was created to lead the demonic army against the forces of [[Heaven]], at some point in time Dagon and her siblings [[Asmodeus]] and [[Ramiel]] abdicated their rank in [[Hell]] and took to living quiet lives on Earth, with the demon hierarchy spreading the rumor that the Princes of Hell were all killed off to keep anyone from searching for them. |
