Rangda, the Queen of Dark Magic, is the Archfiend of the fourth layer of Mictlān - and one of the three Arch-Fiends whose blood runs in the tieflings.

Divine Domain

Rangda’s domain is dark magic and the hunger for power. Her realm, the Obsidian Wind (Itztéecuahuitl), is a shadowy, cursed forest lashed by winds of obsidian shards, where shadow sorcerers and cursed beasts roam. Her necromantic power strips souls of their mortal attachments, and her environment constantly threatens to consume spiritual essence through forbidden magic.

Worshippers & Cults

Rangda sired a line of tieflings with a natural affinity for the dark arts - descendants drawn to forbidden knowledge and the manipulation of mind and magic.

Relationships

One of the nine Archfiends of the Mictlān Pantheon; with Mara and Asmodeus, a progenitor of the tiefling bloodlines.
