I get the feeling that there’s scope to make up your own rules for a Revenant Remnants warband of humans. A handful of the suicide army commited to destroying the portal that against all the odds have survived. They are desperately trying to keep their souls and continue tactical guerilla missions, causing decent and fueling hatred between the demon schools of philosophy to keep Hell broken. The trouble is… Some of them know how they broke the portal and thus… Could give the Earthbound some clues on how to reopen it.

The warband could be easily set up like the Cabals are created but reflect somehow that they are squishier than their demon enemy. The army clearly were skilled enough in martial disciplines and dedicated enough to beat the directorate and smash the portal, so we can believe that this particular set of killer commandos could still fight a cabal of demons and survive. Maybe Samurai with Templars and warrior bishops and barbarians. You might even be able to tie in a touch of ranged attack to keep them out of the risk of destruction in hand to hand combat with twenty foot demons? They could still be collecting souls of the damned like the Cabals to fuel the runes in their demon smiting blades. They need not be nice people at this stage. The horrors of Hell and trauma of battle could have warped them to not feel any compassion when it comes to reaping human souls to keep their magical weapons honed. This could all be awkward to balance and keep plausible and there is plenty to learn about the game without putting in all the work required to add The Last of the Humans expansion yourself, but it certainly sounds like a fun concept to me.

Oh, what I meant to say was… I got my dice and started priming my opposing cabal.
