Do you think Lord Diavolo's animal motif (assuming he has one) could be a moth? He has two sets of wings like a moth does and kind of has that big fluffy area that some moths have around his shoulders. A quick Google search also tells me that moths are symbolic of change and transformation which I guess could have to do with his dream of improving the relationship between the three realms

I just happened to think of this while looking at him in lessons 13 and 14 of Nightbringer so I could be wrong, but it's still interesting to think about

#obey me #obey me nightbringer #obey me diavolo #obey me rambles #obey me theory #you could also say that his demon form is just supposed to be like... a bat #since his wings look more like bat wings and some bats are pretty fuzzy #and he is wearing additional bat-like wings on him too #although idk if any bat symbolism matches him #and demon wings in general tend to look like bat wings #playing this game has me surprising myself with the amount of questions i find myself asking #espec about the lore and how the universe works #which i guess is a side effect of the game being about a cast of demons and angels #stuff revolving around those things and the afterlife realms and other similar topics tends to really get my brain going sometimes #bc i had a big fantasy afterlife worldbuilding project i was working on a little while back where i had to consider similar questions #the om universe is very different from what i was doing so i suppose my curiosity partly stems from comparing it to my own lore #nightbringer spoilers
