Maraxiform

Maraxiform is a demon in the lore of Dota 2.

Personality and Mannerisms

 * Possibly like most demons, Maraxiform must've had some (if not all or most or a few) of the general aspects that compose a demon's dark personality.

Heroes
is renowned for saving the Hoven from Maraxiform when he slew the demon in battle, but this noble deed has given him an eternity of torment by the demon's last breath. appreciates what Maraxiform did to Clinkz, believing his tortured existence is the demon's best work of art. He regrets his decision to end him and his suffering.
 * Even though Maraxiform was slain, the demon still lurks in the Sixth-Hell, always dragging down Clinkz when he dies. Yet Clinkz evades him every time, but a time will come when his loss will beget his doom as he despairs when he sees a hole to the sixth level of Hell yawn wide for him.
 * Clinkz compliments his outstanding archery skills with the power of Maraxiform's soulfire, imbuing some of his abilities with agonizing flames.
 * Each is dipped in the reservoir of his tortured soul where Maraxiform's fire burns eternal. Clinkz reserves these arrows for those who threaten the Hoven.
 * To perform his, Clinkz cloaks himself with the hellfire of Maraxiform. A puff of smoke followed a burst of flame, and the archer walks with the wind.
 * Clinkz would not have his were it not for the demon putting him on the brink of death. His army may consist of fallen beings who resemble Maraxiform.
 * Maraxiform's decapitated head makes a fine bow that Clinkz uses to share with the demon a witness to the indignities of his eternal suffering.

seems to know Maraxiform and the fate the demon reserves for Clinkz in death.

Aware of Maraxiform's final deed, thinks that the demon “botched the job” for some reason. This may imply the following speculation:
 * Perhaps Maraxiform worked for the Shadow Demon in his Second Dominion, which involved mastering the material plane. Maybe this is why Maraxiform tried to claim the Hoven.
 * It's possible the job that Maraxiform botched is what the demon did to Clinkz's form when Maraxiform made him FUBAR when the demon's fire reduced him to a skeleton.

Characters
Sutherex learned Maraxiform's invasion of the Hoven and responded to the threat by attempting to rally defenders via decreeing a spell of immortality as a motivation and a reward to those who kill the demon. Clinkz unwittingly earned the spell, which combined with Maraxiform's last breath to preserve him as the hellfire torments him forever.

World
Maraxiform rose to the Hoven from a gate to the Sixth Hell with the intention of claiming the forest. This demon attacked the arboreal kingdom until Clinkz battled the beast in mortal combat, driven back to the threshold of the fiery gates, where this demon died to his last arrow, but not without letting out one last blast of hellfire that incinerated Clinkz and ignited the Hoven's tar pools.

Abode
Maraxiform is a demon of the sixth level of the Seven Hells, whence he rises from into the mortal plane through fiery gates.

Powers
As a demon, Maraxiform had the natural ability to breathe hellfire. Hellfire can cremate lesser beings in mere seconds and is eternal with its ability to burn and torture the soul.

Besides a power over hellfire, Maraxiform must've had the other general powers of a demon, such as the heat of Hell in their veins and an immortal rage.

An interesting thing to notice is that Maraxiform had this power to travel to the mortal plane from the Sixth Hell through fiery gates, something that only the Demon Lords are capable of doing with their explicit access to this plane. This implies that Maraxiform must've been a very powerful demon, unless someone else helped the demon enter this world...
