Appearances[]

MADNESS: Project Nexus[]

Stygian appears in the game's Story Mode during the post-credit scene, alongside the rest of the Employers. Of the group, Stygian talks the most, berating Christoff and informing him that the Nexus Charter has been revoked.

In Arena Mode, Stygian is referenced several times in relation to the mission The Haunting of Nevada House. The inhabitants of Nevada House worship Stygian due to their connection to The Other Place, and hope to summon them so they can unleash Armageddon using otherworldly creatures. Stygian will only physically appear if the Player fails the stage by allowing the Demoniac Circle to be fully activated, after which they will burst from the floor and make the screen cut to black.

Trivia[]

  • It is also implied that the Offering origin was a creation of the Demoniacs, created to worship Stygian, but was rejected by the Higher Powers.
  • Stygian is described by Krinkels to have similar work with Charon from Greek mythology. Stygian also was stated to be concept of death
