They might not. Canon is VERY VERY twisty. They've even got Chronos having sided with the gods eventually and joining them as advisor.
The one thing they mention is that the different demons are represented by jewels. Beal's was the sapphire that Fiona wears on occasion. Lucifer's is (waits for Karla to bust out laughing but it works differently in this verse ^_^) diamond.
For all we know, Lucifer was power behind the throne. The Infernals all agree that he is definitely the most dangerous of their lot.
Also, as mentioned, there's always Amberflaxus, Louis's cat who is an unknown variable but he was willing to bargain away a very powerful weapon for him by the end of the book.

True. But there are times when I let him sit on my shelf and just give him a friendly pat now and again so he doesn't get lonely (clearly a risk :-)), and times when I am randomly rereading Anansi Boys and Death: The High Cost of Living and grumbling about where my other Death mini got to. This? One of the latter.
Ooooh what if we go with some kind of ancient mystery of the island? Something that ties in with the mythology/history that's already been established.
Maybe some of the wolf-types could find bones in the preserve and that pulls in Brennan and the other cop types to try to solve the mystery of what happened.
Oooh yes! Or something like the small plot we did way back when with Chris, Wyatt and Cally losing their hearing, sight and voice (which was an adapted Charmed canon plot)? So different people would lose different senses and only be able to communicate with some people?

Oh, I guess I should throw this out while she's on the island. Veronica is a nosy little bitch. So if your character has a secret that you want revealed, we can probably work something out to have that happen.
From this post (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomtownies/4046575.html#comments), I have an idea of an invasion of singing Tesla coils (search on Youtube), triggered when Jack (finally) convinces an adult-type-person to purchase the device for him and they turn it on.
