Stolas/History

Much of Stolas's past remains shrouded in mystery, as all that is known he is part of an order of royalty called the Ars Goetia, within which he holds the rank of Prince.

He possesses a book that grants him access to the living world, which he states is meant to help him perform his various duties.

Stolas has also commented that he made contact with several denizens of Earth, establishing them as connections on the planet.

Many years ago, Stolas met an avian demon named Stella and the two later married, having a daughter named Octavia. As the years went by, Stolas's family life started to fall apart, despite his sincere efforts to make things work for his daughter.

Stolas began seeking solace elsewhere and one day, he came across an Imp named Blitzo, who was looking to start up a company and required a means to access Earth. He was intrigued by the proposition made by Blitzo and agreed to give him access to his grimoire in exchange for having sex with him.

Even though Blitzo abandoned him in the middle of the night with the book, Stolas greatly enjoyed the experience and began to lust after the Imp.

Later, Stolas called in a favor to Blitzo and commissioned him to assassinate a political candidate on Earth.

"Murder Family"
Stolas, in the middle of a bath, makes a call to Blitzo while hiding from Martha, and unaware of Blitzo's current situation, asks for his grimoire back, as he needed it to perform his duties. Stolas then offers to let Blitzo keep the book as an exchange of services, requesting he and Blitzo regularly have sex on the full moon of every month, and in return, Blitzo can keep the book for the rest of the time. Blitzo hastily agrees to the deal, and Stolas goes off on an elated and obscene rant about his sexual fantasies with Blitzo, which continues long after Blitzo loses the phone.

"Loo Loo Land"
Stella finds out about Stolas' affair with Blitzo and has an emotional lashing out at Stolas; Stolas himself does not express any regrets or apologize over the incident, making things even more tumultuous. After Stella storms out of the room furious, Stolas decides to get himself and Octavia out of the house by visiting Loo Loo Land. He calls Blitzo again and hires his group as bodyguards to guard himself and Octavia during their visit to the park. However, despite trying to bond with Octavia, Stolas starts flirting with Blitzo and even allows other imps to attempt kidnapping him just so Blitzo can save him. Things take a turn for the worse when they visit the FizzaRolli 'n Friends attraction Octavia despised as a child, which aggravates her even more. Eventually, Octavia can no longer tolerate it, and she runs off to the fun house with Stolas chasing her.

During the ride, Stolas and Octavia talk about their current situation. Stolas finally realizes that Octavia was not having a fun time, being upset at him for ruining their family. Stolas tries to tell Octavia why he cheated on Stella, but can't find the right words.

Once he finds out that Octavia is afraid of her father abandoning her, Stolas reassures her that he would never do that, and their relationship is reconciled. Departing the ride together, Stolas and Octavia exit the park, where the park is in flames due to the antics of the IMP. Stolas asks Octavia what she would like to do, and she requests if he can take her to Stylish Occult. Stolas is perplexed about initially, but agrees, and Octavia tells him he's not so bad at times.

"The Harvest Moon Festival"
After a night of sex with Blitzo, Stolas takes back the Grimoire so that he could summon the Harvest Moon and fulfill his hosting duties at The Harvest Moon Festival. He also invites Blitzo and IMP as special guests at the festival, which Blitzo accepts. During the festival, however, he is targeted by Striker, an imp hired to kill him. Blitzo and Moxxie intercept Striker before he can assassinate the prince and thwart his attempt on Stolas' life, despite Striker managing to escape.

What Stolas doesn't know is that he was being targeted by Striker on Stella's behalf, as revenge for his infidelity. Stolas can be seen eating dinner with the rest of his family while Stella is on the phone with Striker, apparently unaware of her or not paying attention to the phone call, before turning his head briefly when he notices her glaring at him.

"Truth Seekers"
A short time after, Stolas appears, in his full demonic form, at D.H.O.R.K.S. Headquarters in the human realm to rescue the members of I.M.P. after they were captured by Agent One and Agent Two.

Stolas lets the two agents live, dismissing them as kooks who weren't to be believed by the public.

"Ozzie's"
Later on, Stolas was spending a depressing evening alone at home, eating cereal and binge-watching telenovelas due to Octavia being with her mother for the weekend. Then he receives a call from Blitzo inviting him out to Ozzie's, much to Stolas's surprise. Unaware that Blitzo was really only using Stolas to get through the door and spy on Moxxie and Millie, Stolas excitedly agrees and prepares for what he believed was he and Blitzo's first date.

Stolas arrives in the Lust Ring through a portal to where Blitzo is. Once seated inside Ozzie's, Stolas attempts to make small talk with Blitzo, but the latter is distracted by his spying on the couple. Stolas briefly becomes concerned upon Fizzarolli mentioning Asmodeus was in the audience. Later, he watches Moxxie perform onstage, but when Fizzarolli and Asmodeus interrupt Moxxie's song for Millie and turn to humiliating Blitzo instead, Asmodeus recognizes Stolas as Blitzo's date and calls him out for sleeping with Blitzo instead of focusing on Stella and Octavia, causing Stolas to become greatly embarrassed. Blitzo also feels embarrassment and although Stolas tries to comfort him, Blitzo decides to leave the club, taking Stolas with him.

Blitzo drives Stolas back to his mansion, and when Stolas tries to invite Blitzo to stay awhile, Blitzo frustratedly refuses, stating that their relationship was nothing more than Stolas wanting to have sex with him. Upset but conceding to his request, Stolas bids Blitzo goodnight, and as Blitzo pulls away, Stolas sheds tears and sits on his front steps in a lonely depression.
