Noble titles and concubines

It’s like expecting an average Joe from the street to be able to perform brain surgery, with a title he got from an store that sells costumes.
No experience, lack of knowledge, not to say they’re stupid just they dont have the knowledge a King would possess, our human brains can only hold and process so much information. They dont have respect of the citizens. Furthermore there’s the issue of what territory they would govern.

From what I remember and feel instinctually in the infernal, your either born into royalty, marry into royalty, get adopted, or you work your way through the ranks and earn a Kingship with blood, sweat and tears.
They still have a long road ahead of them.

yeah. Too much responsibility

I agree with you Velenos, they need to earn it, however getting adopted into a noble or royal family in the infernal, can cut down slightly the work they put in. It’s still hundreds of years at the least, most likely thousands years of work.

It’s easier though as you don’t have to worry about things like poverty and hunger there as they can manifest their own food through energy work or just eat energy.

I will tell you the model that is currently in fashion for becoming demonic royalty. You can break it down into four easy steps.

Step one: Choose a demon king. The more popular and prestigious, the better.
Step two: Have sex with him.
Step three: Instant royalty.
Step four: Tell everyone on the internet. Because a crown is no good unless everyone knows you have one.

I doubt demonic “love lives” bear much on the hierarchy of the pseudomonarchia. Demons tend to be smarter and less sentimental critters about that sort of thing IME.

I agree, but based on the number of crowned heads I’ve seen the last couple of years, you will never convince anyone of that

Are we actually learning anything useful from this discussion?

The OP might be as they asked the question, so whether or not “we” learned anything is kind of irrelevant. When people make threads asking questions it’s usually the OP that wants to learn something. Unless it’s about the OP teaching something or sharing something they know.
