Linda died, and with no Noriel around her will was enacted. That authorised Grayven to use her body for 'fucked up' magic.

If I remember correctly, the only reason her parents allowed this is because the Renegade told them that letting Gloria possess Linda's body lets Linda's soul out of Hell.

Historically his actions are less likely to blow up in his face than to wonder off then come back to bite him in the arse later.

So he just connected Luthor's soul, specifically the part that's trying to be better, to a demon.

She rub awkwardly at her neck where the 'nicotine patch' is stuck. The problem with being a demon is that… Well, you're a demon. Basic thaumatics requires them to fuel themselves on vice and suffering, and while being plumbed into a living human body cuts down her energy expenditure, she still has needs that can't be indulged in normal human society. So Sunset came up with a minor 'suffering tap' to draw upon ambient suffering and she hasn't tortured a guinea pig to death in about a year.

"Demons are never truly happy, just less miserable. Their highest form of pleasure is schadenfreude. This is a fundamental limit to your nature. If you will not change your nature, then… This uncertainty, this nervousness, will remain with you until your fears are finally proven true."

That's not quite true. There are many different kinds of demons in DC cosmology that work in different ways, and many of them have shown the ability to reform and live happy lives without making people suffer.

In other words, demons aren't evil because their nature dictates them to be, they're evil if they they choose to be dicks.

I don't recall any actual Hell demon (as opposed to other things that are also called demons) that lived a 'good' life without a constant ongoing struggle against their nature.

In fact thats usually one of the major core plot elements of demon\half-demon character's story arcs; the struggle to not be what they are.

I want to see if she can manipulate the matter of the Earth's moon. Moonrock golems, magical moonrock defenses that spring up from beneath Colorado if a spaceship takes aim... I don't really know how practical moon powers are without space travel, but I hope she got something.

I never actually watched the cartoon.
