Sorrows of the Seventh Gate
The Sorrows have been with Sahdiopenzith since before she had ever left Avernus. They were given by Tiamat herself as a gift for Sahdiopenzith's actions defending the Cave of Greed against demonic thieves looking to plunder the hoard of the Dragon Queen. While the demons were likely destined for death regardless, Tiamat was grateful to not have had to deal with the problem herself and gave a contingent of Abishai. These warriors had been guarding the Seventh Gate, which had collapsed nearly a century before. It's possible that Tiamat was just trying to keep them busy, though the extremely generous reward did motivate her courtiers and send Sahdiopenzith onto a carousel of backstabbing and politicking.
Structure
The Archon has roughly a dozen Abishai under his direct command. These men each have six elite Abishai commandoes under their command. This seven warrior unit is known as a Slaughter, and is comprised of one red, blue, green, yellow, white, black, and purple Abishai. Which one is in charge is a matter usually settled by violence. They are supported by summoned Baatezu and war magic.
Culture
The Sorrows are a brutal military outfit which brook no cowardice in either themselves or their enemies. They are fanatically loyal to their mission, which in this case is serving Sahdiopenzith as a reward for her actions in the Blood War. While they have a blind spot to their queen's blashpemies, any blasphemy or disloyalty among the Kenir Duppidvoup is met with horrific finality.
