[notes, headcanons, and extra facts]
~ Josephi Blackwood created a whole new realm all on his own using his demonic power. He created the Red Valley Circus all on his own with no help from a higher being and can manipulate every tiny aspect of it.
~ In Red Valley, you only have power if Josephi allows it since this is his personal domain; his reality. In here he is absolute; he is the god of this realm and nothing he doesn't allow will happen.
~ Josephi is a master bladesmith and metalsmith. He makes all of his own weapons and torture tools himself, absolutely refusing to steal or buy any weapons. They need to be made by him in order for him to use it.
~ Red Valley is one of the many dimensions located in Hell, except most souls, spirits, and even demons fear it.
~ It is impossible to go die, go unconscious, go into a coma, or even sleep while in Red Valley because of the incredibly powerful demonic magic located in it. He can do absolutely anything to you and you can't escape it. Ever. However, if you leave Red Valley and are full of mortal injuries, they will start affecting you instantly, as you are in the real world.
~ There is a massive, open topped tent in Red Valley that Josephi will take his victims and will put on a horrific show. It entails being tortured, maimed, and ripped apart in an arena while dark and sadistic entities watch with amusement from the benches.
~ If Josephi enjoys you too much, he won't put on a show. No... You have a worse fate. You are put into his own personal torture dungeon located in his bedroom, where he will hurt you any chance he gets in ways you can't even begin to imagine. He may do horrible things to you for shows, but he is so much work when he has his victims alone.
~ Red Valley is filled with insane and sadistic demonic clowns that loyally and eternally serve as Josephi's lackies happily. They get to watch torture shows for free, have their alone time with certain prisoners, and they are upgraded to be much more powerful than your average demon. So, turning them against Josephi? Impossible; will never happen.
~ Josephi creates his own Hellhounds. They are bigger, stronger, faster, and more intelligent than any other Hellhounds in existence, able to rip through victims faster than the eye can see, or as slow and painful that should be possible.
~ Josephi holds auctions in Red Valley where he sells the victims he has thoroughly broken to the point that they are no fun anymore, or ones that are too weak. You can imagine what kind of clientele this entity attracts, so most likely you'll be sold to someone just as bad as Josephi.
~ Josephi's crimes don't just include torture, no sir. He captures certain beings that he uses as his own personal slaves that are sent to clean up the arena, feed the Hellhounds, clean up feces, clean up vomit, etc. The treatment of them is absolutely awful and they are often forced to eat the things that they clean up.
~ Hunger, thirst, fatigue, sickness, and infection all still exist in Red Valley, the only difference is that you aren't able to rest it off or die to escape them.
~ Gateways to Red Valley will oftentimes teleport to earth or other realms and from the outside, it has the façade of being a normal circus with pretty lights, laughter, a Ferris wheel, and more! However, when you enter and realize the truth... it's too late. The exit will disappear the moment you enter and you'll be trapped forever.
~ There are dark and rather dirty circus wagons made of demonic metals all across Red Valley, so Josephi can move and transport prisoners as he wishes.
~ There are special collars that Josephi puts on the neck of every victim that comes into Red Valley that is a tracking device, power dampener, shocking device, and face melting device all in one.
