Invincible Villain: Difference between revisions

* The Dark Eight from [[Dungeons and Dragons]], the cabal of pit fiends that command the armies of the Nine Hells; they'd like mortals to ''believe'' they fit this Trope, as they and other powerful devils claim they have ruled for thousands of years, immune to the betrayals and machinations of underlings so common in a race of [[Social Darwinist]]s. In truth, [[Subverted Trope| it is a ruse]] done to ensure the cabal's authority, and only ''one'' of the original Dark Eight still remain. Dark Eight members are killed rather often, an underling taking the slain members name and position when it does. Whether this is a tightly kept secret or an [[Open Secret|badly kept one]] is [[Depending on the Writer]].
