Legion is an ancient demonic entity made up of countless other beings controlled by a main "core". It functions similarly a colony of insects and its one goal is to absorb as many beings into its hive mind as possible. It adds to itself by attacking its targets with weapons imbued with the dark energy that flows throughout the collective. Individuals "killed" by the weapons become connected to Legion. After being linked the individuals are processed to fit into the collective. Their personality and emotions are discarded, any useful knowledge or skills they had are shared throughout the hive mind, their energy is converted into that of the collective and if necessary their physiology will be changed in order to maximize their usefulness. The immunity it possesses to the changes made to the monster population by the Demon Lord as a result of its powerful collective mind and energy pool, its ability to reverse these changes in any monster absorbed into it, and its nature of destroying individuality and free will has made it a glaring threat to everything the Demon Lord stands for and as a result she lives in constant uncertainty, fearing that the Legion will destroy her work. The forces of the Order are equally unsettled by the collective's power and relentlessness making it a common enemy between the two. For reasons unknown the Legion's activity in this world has been uncharacteristically low for quite some time but this odd period of calm does little to ease the anxiety caused by it in both monsters and humans alike.
