Okeedok. first some quick questions!

(a) What do you think I should make the map with! xD
  I'm thinking either ASCII or pixels (as in, really pixels. Just pixels), as really good maps are a pain to keep up.

(b) Is everyone's character sheet in?
(c) Some things you should always do per post:
   (i) Always post your related modifiers. For example, if you are taking the action "Look around", post your Spot and or Search modifier. Or if you are fighting, post your AC and your related modifiers, so I can roll the dice. Alternatively, you can just post the link to your character sheet every post. That's also better for me.

My sheet is pending. Probably a a divination/abjuration wizard, since I will probably be crushed by rocks if I use my favorite build.

(a) I vote for a pixel background witg ASCII features/people/enemies/etc., but that's just me. Just do whatever's easier for you.
(b) Character sheet is in: http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=393183
(c) I'll just link to the sheet when possible.

Just a minor correction: D&D's multiverse has a few common planes which never change, two of these being the 9 Hells and the Abyss. Devils, who inhabitate the first, and Demons, who reside in the Abyss, have been going at each other for a long, long time, in what is known as the Blood War; the conflict has ended in 4e thanks to Asmodeus, but we are 3.5e bound. The real deal is that the Abyss is ruled by warring Demon Princes, whereas the Hells are ruled by 9 Archdevils, among which only Asmodeus is a deity... Hence, there are no "Hell Lords", either you worship Asmodeus or those among the Demon Princes which qualify as deities, such as Orcus.

Alternatively, screw lore and go with whatever you want.

This morning I found myself looking at the numberplates of the cars on my drive in to work and seeing them as tileset characters in ASCII... a silver Renault I was behind had an interesting scene of a Human wrestling a Minotaur near a bin.

@Azthor:
I try to ignore the DDG rules on what counts as a "real" god and what doesn't - it's far more interesting from an RP prespective for your character to have a theology instead of a god. In this case, Hans is a member of a greek-style polytheistic assassin cult that worships all nine of the Lords of Baator as gods, with Asmoedus being the Zeus and Dispater and Levistus and all the other big name devils being analogous to Hermes and Demeter and the other lesser greek gods.

Was anyone here actually on their way to paradise? Except for me obviously, I died heroically trying to stop a band of thugs who went around to remote hermitages murdering and/or vandalising all they found within...

And, well, the villages were supporting those villains!
