*''Calamity'': {{Asmodeus}}, the [[Characters/CriticalRoleGods Lord]] of Hells, was once a celestial who was imprisoned alongside the other Betrayer Gods for trying to [[KillAllHumans exterminate mortalkind]]. When the mage Vespin Chloras tried to usurp him, Asmodeus reduced Vespin to a mindless, flayed, enslaved puppet who he then used to release himself and the other Betrayer Gods from their prison. Around the same time, Asmodeus began to appear to the paladin Zerxus Ilerez in dreams and visions, [[WoundedGazelleGambit presenting himself to Zerxus as a wounded and misunderstood victim of circumstance]] in order to play to the paladin's own belief in redemption and feelings of alienation and mistrust and [[ManipulativeBastard manipulating]] Zerxus into bringing him all the way into the Material Plane. Once Asmodeus is freed, he kills Zerxus three times within the span of one second while delivering a blistering monologue about how he has always hated mortals and his intent to imprison and torment all mortalkind and the other gods for eternity, then threatens Zerxus's son unless the paladin agrees to become his champion. During the later days of the Calamity, Asmodeus repeated the same trick on the goddess Raei, convincing her that he was redeemable and setting up a meeting between the two that resulted in him and his followers massacring all of her worshippers, to the point that her faith is only just starting to recover centuries later in [[WebVideo/CriticalRoleCampaignOne Campaign 1]].
