The Death Parade

Group Description
The Death Parade is a group of high-ranking demon soldiers from Xorin's own army, as well as Gods who have joined him and became Demonized. The Death Parade consists of 5 Admins, and one Leader; The Admins being (in order of rank): Flare, Taozahl, Roxy, Envy, and Freeze. Their one leader is Xorin, King of Demons. The Death Parade has more than one-hundred thousand foot-soldiers, which include normal demons, as well as demonized townspeople of towns taken over by the parade. Some of these townspeople include former punk 'admins' such as Bacchus, Xander, and Kieran.

How was this Group Formed?
The Death Parade was formed by Xorin when he discovered the power of Demonization, or the process of taking most, if not all, of a person's light out of them, turning them into a demon. He experimented by using this newfound power on kidnapped townspeople, until he wanted to try it on something more powerful than a human. Flare had just been put in jail, with no way to get out, so Xorin embarked on a quest to free him, which was successful. Xorin then proceeded to test Flare's normal abilities by sending him to strike fear in The Godly City, to which the Group of Gods responded. After failing, Flare and Xorin went back to Xorin's Castle in Oblivion, to fix his issues. Xorin then Demonized Flare, making him much more powerful, and much less likely to crack under pressure. Flare had already kidnapped Envy who joined the Parade without a choice. The Death Parade had began its march to world destruction.

Significance To The Story
The Death Parade is very significant to the story, as they are the main villains of the third arc, titled "The Death Parade." Many main characters become a part of the army throughout the story, such as Flare, Freeze, as well as the newly introduced Roxanne Calinda. For this reason, it gives the Group of Gods more of a drive to defeat them, as they were betrayed by their friends, leaving them vulnerable. Since Xorin has been the main antagonist of Group of Gods since the beginning, it is right to assume that The Death Parade is very important.
