The bishops (The Nine)

Status: Antagonist
Currently: Alive

The city of Dema is run by 9 bishops, each representing one of Tyler's insecurities. The bishop Nico although represented as a bishop IS Blurryface. The Bishops are the ones holding Dema's citizens captive and enforcing the religion known as "Vialism" within the city.The bishops have the ability to put people in a trance like state in which they are able to control them. They do this to Tyler by smearing black paint onto his neck which then slowly engulfs his throat and hands.Each bishops name corresponds to the Blurryface album cover and is pulled from the particular songs lyrics:

The Blurryface album cover contains dots with different patterns that represent certain songs on the album.

This image is taken from the map of Dema given to us. When turned so that east is up (clockwise), the names match up to lyrics on the corresponding song to the album cover
