Overview

Demon Summoning is a primary powerset for Masterminds.

Conjures demons from the depths of the netherworld and beyond. These demonic servitors wield hellfire and serve you through some dark compact. You are capable of summoning a variety of infernal minions each with it's own strengths and weaknesses.

The Demon Summoning power set imbues Masterminds the ability to tap into the abyss and conjure seven different types of elemental demons, each with its own unique themed attacks. Demon Summoning lets a Mastermind wade into the thick of the fight with elemental demon henchmen instead of hanging back and attacking at range. Demon Summoning is a primary power choice for Masterminds and is the power set of choice for Desdemona, one of the City of Heroes Going Rogue™ signature characters.

The hellfire whip and the seven elemental demons--Fiery Demonling, Cold Demonling, Hellfire Demonling, Ember Demon, Hellfire Gargoyle, Demon Prince, and Living Hellfire--are what sets Demon Summoning apart from other Mastermind primary power sets. The hellfire whip, dealing fire and toxic damage, reduces its target's resistance with searing, torturous hellfire. Unlike typical Mastermind attacks, hellfire whip attacks (except Corruption) have a much shorter range. Crack Whip and Lash with a hellfire whip have a longer range than melee attacks, but much shorter range than ranged attacks. The fire-, cold-, and hellfire-based attacks of the demons provide a variety of secondary effects.

This premium powerset is available on the Paragon Market, as part of the Going Rogue expansion, or free for VIP Players while subscribed.

Demon Princes are the infernal ruling class within the cold depths of the abyss. They are bound by only the most powerful conjurors, as they are tremendously dangerous to bring to the material plane.

Call forth up to three demonlings (depending on your level) to do your bidding. The first demonling is adept at manipulating fire, the second blasts your foes with cold attacks and the third is able to wield hellfire to deal fire/toxic damage. You may only have three demonlings under your command at any given time. If you attempt to summon more demonlings, you can only replace those that have been lost in battle. If you already have your maximum allowed amount, the power will fail.

These infernal single minded creatures born of the Abyss seek only to cause mayhem, destruction and suffering on the material plane.
