This did not mean that they were lazy, however, as the primary personality trait for any devil was ambition.
ĭevils often delegated their work to others. For example, the grandson or granddaughter of a dead being who was indirectly involved in the demotion of devil was an eligible target for the demoted devil, even after it managed to be re-promoted. Devils had an instinct to look for others to blame when they suffered setbacks and had the drive to exact vengeance against whomever they held responsible, even when they were demoted to a weaker station. This led to another trait of devils, their extreme vindictiveness combined with a lack of ability to accept their mistakes. However, they hated being the target of misery themselves. Devils were vicious creatures who were capable of attacking and killing others for essentially no reason.
