The Demon Lord's original plan - to cast a grand sorcery that enabled humans and monsters to interbreed - was only partially successful. Together with her human husband (the chosen hero of the time and now even more powerful as an incubus), she drove off the Chief God (who had come down to kill both of them) in battle and began to focus on expanding her influence on the world. Motion a plan to end their eons-long conflict forever, by transforming monsters into monster girls and trying to fuse the two species into what would in effect be one united "human" species (incubi as the males, and monster girls as the females). While most monsters in former ages literally ate humans for breakfast due to instincts instilled by the gods, the Demon Lord was instead motivated by a deep love of those creatures that were supposed to be her enemy (she was an example of the rare monsters that were able to resist the human killing instinct, and even come to love humans), and so she set in For reasons that are not completely known (there were many factors at play), the present Demon Lord was able to short-circuit this process, gaining the title by acclamation from the other monsters (though she did fight for it as well). In the previous era, usually, Demon Lords came to power over many years by butchering their way to the top of the pile of slavering inhuman monstrosities, with the tacit approval of the Chief God, with their function being to organize the monsters and lead them on campaigns of such massive scale that humanity as a whole is culled and falls in numbers substantially. Nevertheless, the Demon Lord's metaphysical sovereignty over the monsters does affect their behavior: just as her succubus nature influences their bodies, so too her personality influences their minds, giving all monsters a preference for monogamous relationships and not stealing other girls' husbands (though their own cultural and species norms have some influence too). For example, while the monsters of Zipangu appreciate and respect her for giving them female forms, they are in practice almost completely autonomous. Also, the story on the punishment of the Tentacle Forest probably relates to an adventure she personally embarked on early in her reign (although the " white-haired succubus" to which it refers could conceivably be one of her daughters instead, its unlikely given how it seems to have happened not long after monsters became monster girls, and thus there was probably not enough time for any lilim to have been born and matured yet).Īlthough all monsters would agree that the Demon Lord is, at least in a nebulous sense, their "leader", the degree of control she exerts over different factions and species varies considerably. Appearance-wise, " have pale skin and pure white hair, which they share in common with the Demon Lord and red eyes full of demonic energy". She is at least mentioned to deeply love her husband, and the human species in general. Other details on her personality and interests (beyond sex) are sketchy, in spite of her central role in the Monster Girl Encyclopedia. The current Demon Lord is responsible for transforming monsters into the human-loving creatures we know of today, and is the mother of all the lilim. Previous holders have been bloodthirsty anthrocidal killers in the classical "monster" tradition, but the current incumbent, a succubus, is rather more a lover than a fighter. There have been multiple Demon Lords, and the title may have been held by very many monsters since the creation of the world. The Demon Lord, alternatively translated Monster Lord, Mamono Lord, Overlord or sometimes Maou (Kenkou Cross considers the "demon lord" translation misleading, as the position is not meant to imply that the ruler is necessarily a demon type monster or only rules over demons), is the leader of all the monsters in the Monster Girl Encyclopedia world.
