In 1495, there once live a woman named Hope living in Sweden. Her mother died when she was young, so she only lived with her father. Her father was a war monger who drafts men to fight for him. However, little did Hope know was that her father was a descendant of a fallen angel and all the men he had drafted were being sent to the realms of Hell. The villagers discover what he was doing, however he escaped into Hell before being captured, leaving Hope behind. The villagers accused her as a witch for being the daughter of a devil worshiper and sentenced her to death. Upon the day Hope was to be burnt at the stake, she chanted the words that she overheard her father chanting in front of an alter. A demon was summoned and gave Hope a choice; either to abandon her humanity and live in Hell or die. Hope reluctantly chose to abandon her humanity and the demon granted her wish. She was then taken to Hell, and found that her father had been trying to overthrow Lucifer. She escaped the wrath of Lucifer and met up with the blacksmith of Hell named Cremator who helped her in training with a sword. Changes became noticeable, both her hair and skin turning white. Cremator gave her a new outfit to replace her prison rags- a black, two-piece bikini and a black cape with a pair of boots and arm sleeves. She battled against Lucifer and succeeded in defeating him. Upon his dying breath he warned her that if she killed him she would be cursed, becoming unable to leave Hell unless all humans (or his allies still walk) on Earth were killed. Hope disregarded the warning, and killed him, accepting the consequences. She then announced herself as the Queen of Hell and Lady Death.
