ABFA – American Board of Forensic Anthropology". theabfa.org. Archived from the original on October 7, 2011. Osyluths tower over lesser devils at 9 feet tall—though their tails and fearsome but useless wings make them appear much larger—and weigh upward of 400 pounds. Creatures in "Devil" Category Name Below these are the devil races themselves, from the lordly and malevolent pit fiends all the way down to the lowly, malformed lemure. The Infernal Hierarchy Listed here, from the absolute weakest devils to the lords of Hell, is the most basic hierarchy of the infernal realm's best-known denizens. We found no signs of different or harmful tooth wear in captive devils, and they showed much the same patterns and types of wear as wild devils. From teaching FBI agents how to detect and recover human remains, to separating and identifying commingled body parts in her Montreal lab, as one of only seventy-seven forensic anthropologists ever certified by the American Board of Forensic Anthropology, Dr Kathy Reichs has brought her own dramatic work experience to her mesmerising forensic thrillers. For years she consulted to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in North Carolina, and continues to do so for the Laboratoire de Sciences Judiciaires et de Médecine Légale for the province of Québec. Kathy Reichs has travelled to Rwanda to testify at the UN Tribunal on Genocide, and helped exhume a mass grave in Guatemala. As part of her work at JPAC she aided in the identification of war dead from World War II, Korea, and Southeast Asia.

This in most cases ends up creating a Fiend, though in rare cases it can end up creating a Hybrid instead under certain circumstances. The personality of the Fiend may mirror that of the corpse if the brain is still intact, as evident by the Violence Fiend's polite and gentle attitude. [19] In these scenarios, the Devil may also retain some memories from the body they took over. In rare instances, Devils deliberately would like to retain the personality of the possessed corpse, effectively reviving them, and take over their personalities from time to time. The only known instance of this happening is with the War Devil, who took over Asa Mitaka's body while keeping her ego intact. Reichs has appeared in Tanzania to testify at the United Nations's International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. [6] She has assisted Clyde Snow and the Foundation for Guatemalan Forensic Anthropology in an exhumation in the area of Lake Atitlan in the highlands of southwest Guatemala. She was a member of the Disaster Mortuary Operational Response Team assigned to assist at the World Trade Center disaster. [4]

The "name" for a Devil would more accurately be the concept(s) for a Devil rather than an actual "name" as the names for concepts will not be the same or mean the same thing in different languages and vice versa. A Devil who is one of the more notable examples of this is the first horseman whose name is "Shihai" in Japanese, which is meant to be a wordplay on multiple similar but different concepts in one umbrella term in that language, but does not have the same effect in other languages, hence it will get different words as its translation such as Conquest, Control or Domination, to name a few. In Montreal, three elderly women are found murdered, their bodies brutally discarded. Even though the clues don’t add up, Tempe is certain of a link between their deaths and that of the heiress. Some Devils also have a "near-death" state where their appearance changes to a weaker form. So far, only two near-death states have been shown: Pochita, the dog-like weakened form of the Chainsaw Devil, and the War Devil's weakened bird-like form. Both of these are known to have been incredibly powerful Devils before being weakened, so it is unknown if all Devils are able to assume a weakened state.
