The Proteans did it.

And it was just the start.

Expect to click on the forums and end up in the sleazy part of craiglist, or 4chan.

Or whatever you write will be shouted by a train as it collides with a river of rice in mid-air.

Words like "Baatezu" or "Tanar'ri" or "Yugoloth" seem awkward and silly to me, since they lack the tradition and real-world resonance of words like devil or daemon or demon.

Speak for yourself mortal! :P

He's right Foxface. ;P

He's one of those people who joins a group, doesn't quite get it (the misunderstandings are deceptively small, but really fatal on the long run) and goes in with a fervour a regular member finds disturbing.

It's like some guy joining a bunch of people who are against slaughtering animals for food, who will start killing meat eaters and blow up farms with all their animals still in it (so no one can eat them).

The other option would have been to put him in the Abyss, and since he's not a demon lord and not evil, that's even weirder to me. There's ample precedent for CN deities living in the CG plane, I guess, but not as much for CN deities in the Abyss.

We creatures from the Void really despise the Abyss.

Don't expect a completely sensible answer to this, because there is none (at least, nothing a non-protean would find sensible), but some reasons that might be true:

They give chaos a bad name. We've noticed that opposition on the law/chaos axis is a lot stronger if we talk about evil creatures, and that good creatures often work together. Thus, our Imenteshs thought it best to make a show of opposing the Abyss to be perceived as more good - and thus, worthy of cooperation - than evil.

So far it worked out quite well.

Thinking hard about this didn't help, so I wrote here physically.

We could do this a lot longer if we had a psi interface. A psinterface, so to speak.
