Experimental, Demon Tribal/Demonic-Themed Deck. Currently looking for recommendations on flavor and viability more than optimization, but any thoughts help.

For reference in this, I primarily want the playstyle to feel like being a demon or devil or something. I want to make other players make horrible decisions, let everyone reap massive rewards for no apparent reason or for a steep price, be a dealbroker for the board state, and of course die only to my own vices and under no circumstances someone else's actions. I want the people to become sheeple to my contracts. I want to watch the world burn around me, or burn with me inside it. I want to make the board to be unable to determine if I should be hated or loved. I want my deck to be so thoroughly evil and confusing that I may as well be a ticking nuclear warhead with a 30% chance to actually turn on the thrusters never mind "aim". I want to truly get revenge on that one time Nymphrodell stole that chocolate chip cookie off my plate, even if I need to sell my soul to the heart of the cards.

And to answer your question, imaginary commenter, yes I really am tempted to put things like Razorjaw Oni and Sire Of Insanity into the deck, but as funny as some of the other "oh god screw this what did I just cast" cards are (like the currently-included Archfiend of the Dross and maybeboarded Abyssal Persecutor), for now I'm putting a limit to my masochism. Yeah, imagine that. But if you think one of the cards I omitted is worth it for the meme anyways, by all means harass me about it. I'll genuinely hear you out, and probably already agree but found it hard to justify.

Also note that there are some real powerhouse cards like Liliana's Contract. Sure they're good, and they fit thematically, but...they feel a bit cheap, and may end up cut if I can't justify the chaos they would cause or if they're too likely to invalidate the games as a whole.

All jokes aside, thank you for any and all time you may choose waste on this project, I truly appreciate and love you for it.
