Scriptodemonology #2...

2. Sloth

Description:
A mighty demon indeed, Sloth takes a much longer view than most. It knows that as puny mortals, we only have a very short time before death or dementia takes us. And either will end the writer's travails. A thousand masterpieces may wait buried within us all and as every one passes that we now won't have time to write before the end, Sloth chuckles and gloats. How many hours spent in front of the television, how much time spent in banal conversations, how many eons spent enmeshed in the arms of sweet Somnus? If I end up going to Hell, (and the oddsmakers would most likely classify it as a sure thing) this would be the last demon I'd want to have meet me at the gates.

Powers:
Unlimited. Can make air around one thick and immovable, couches ridiculously comfortable, and eyelids impossibly weighty. Distorts time sense to hide its effects.

Vulnerabilities:
Ruthless ambition, deadlines, caffeine.

Instructions for killing:
Unknown.

P.S. Actually, I've been to Hell. They're gonna gave me a suite!!! }:)
