Asmodeus, Zon-Kuthon - who is the Dark Prince??


Advice


There can't be two!
But they are both called this in pathfinder wiki and even new Divine Mysteries. Though Zon-Kuthon is called so only later in the text while for Asmodeus it's in the first line.


Asmodeus is one of the two "big bads" of the setting (the other being Rovagug). So all the titles for "being awful" go to him in a tiebreak scenario.

Although Asmodeus is the "Dark Prince" in the sense of "evil; iniquitous; wicked" and Zon-Kuthon is the "Dark Prince" in the sense of "having very little or no light."

I re-read Zon-Kuthon's article yesterday and can say confidently that he is very much evil, iniquitous and wicked. He isn't even about darkness mostly, he is about pain and twisted perception of it and about it.

Yes, Asmodeus is probably a bigger figure, but is it enough?

Sure there can. You're thinking of kings, not princes.
