Diabolus

Diabolus, also known as the dying lands, is the place where the dead souls come to rest. Depending on the acts of the soul during its life will depend on its resting place in Diabolus. Many of the lands of eternal punishment are known by beings as stories are told to strike fear into those who would sin but the lands of eternal paradise are more mysterious as if to leave some surprise to those that arrive there.

Structure
Diabolus, similarly to the rest of the galaxies in the metaphysical universe, it lacks planets and instead has lands of which are only separated by seas of water. The border of the lands of eternal paradise and eternal punishment the tides flow in opposite directions, the two types of sea never combining much like oil and water wouldn't.

Judgement
Upon the death of a soul they pass to the dying lands of Diabolus and this is were their judgement begins. A Watcher will present a book to a court of Tribunal, whom listen to the doings of the soul throughout their lifetime and either deem them to eternal paradise or eternal punishment. The specific location depends on multiple factors; including the level of sin or virtue committed and the Gods they worshipped.

Those deemed to eternal punishment are individuals whom have committed sins during life. Sometimes these distinctions are specific, with damned souls suffering for each sin committed, but sometimes they are general, with condemned sinners suffering regardless.

In a rare occasion it is possible that the court of Tribunal will judge that the soul should be rebirthed maybe because they have not fulfilled a purpose.

The Sea of Diabolus
The seas of Diabolus between the lands of eternal paradise are bright and clean, they are ever peaceful and gorgeous to behold connecting the lands of eternal reward. Ever warm to the perfect temperature of the individual's preference and anyone whom may consume these waters are blessed with the best taste they could ever experience. However, the seas that separate the lands of eternal punishment are black and cruel, ever shrouded in rain, killing any whom consume or bathe in it. The water is ice cold, the bottom of boats freeze and those within the transports feel the painful coldness. It consumes anything that is dropped onto it except blessed items such as the boats used to traverse it.

Angels
The race of Angels are the creations of the Gods that aid throughout the lands of eternal paradise, They are all on an equal level apart from the few Archangels that work directly below the Gods of eternal paradise. Angels all exhibit wings of some form, which they use to fly. There are four different types of Angels below the Archangels; Agathion, Devas, Planetar and Solar.

Devils
Devils are a race created by the Gods to help control and watch over the lands of eternal punishment. They are locked into a strict hierarchy which culminates with the ruling Devils and the Gods of Eternal punishment. However, individual devils can progress up or down the hierarchy through the death of others, pleasing their superiors or other dastardly deeds.

Demons

Demons have no true rulers, though powerful demon lords and deities are able to gain enough power and influence to gain control over sizable armies of demonic creatures.
