Inizo

Inizo the Monkey Demon of Eldham
It is narrated in the Jacob Liberatus's Codex Infernach that in his journey to the Outer Gate of Hell, Liberatus encountered Inizo, a colossal demon often revered as the Monkey King. Known in some realms as the God of the Ancestral Order.

Inizo, the guardian of the gate, agreed to let Liberatus in, as he allowed souls to enter but never leave. As he guided Liberatus through the dense jungle, he asked about Liberatus's true motives, suspecting Liberatus might be aiding an escape. Liberatus conveyed his mission to delve into the depths of hell as part of his apostolic test, all while preserving his faith, and expressed his anguish over the distorted scriptures of other faiths. Amused, Inizo laughed at the shenanigans of his fellow demons, claiming such trickeries were routine. Swelling with pride, he then shared a secret that would be one of the first demonic secret in the Jacob's Codex Infernach, revealing he had once crafted his own religion, the Ancestral Order.

Inizo exploited the people's innate curiosity about their origins. By eavesdropping two angels discussing the stages of creation and evolution, he synthesized a version where he was the central figure, cunningly presenting himself as the catalyst for humanity's evolution from monkeys. By doing so, he not only placed monkeys at the pinnacle of evolution, but attributed the All-maker's multi-staged creation to himself, leading people to worship him as a God.

Over time, Inizo's tales became entrenched in the collective psyche of the population. They believed that they were the direct descendants of the monkeys, and the formation of the Religious States of the Peoples Ancestors (RSPA) and subsequently the Ancestral Order was a natural progression. The capital city of Inizo was named in honor of this great Monkey King, paying homage to the deity who had bestowed upon them the "gift" of evolution.
