Adam finds a permanent visitor in his life. She, unlike him, is portrayed weaker in a physical sense but is more beautiful on the outside. She doesn't sit in on all the meetings he has with the angels, so she is not as informed as he is but she will ultimately play a role in both their downfalls from grace.

Moloch, who advocates strongly war against God, Mammon, who suggests that the devils make the best of their situations, and Beelzebub, Satan's chief lieutenant and chief supporter, gather the fallen angels to form a place of their own, Pandemonium.
