The lore held within the mimir about the demon general, Alamanda, a marilith tanar'ri:
General Taramanda beheld her twin sister die in the fall of Malevolus. Taramanda now remains cloistered in her fortress, Gallowshill, on the 13th layer of the Abyss. So great was the loss of the demon general Alamanda to the hordes of tanar'ri involved in the Blood War, that many other marilith generals took up her banner in a show of defiance against her slayers. The banner of Alamanda at first became a sort of rogue gang of military tanar'ri generals and their underlings, skirmishing for their own causes against those who brought down Alamanda. Now however, they operate as a sort of mercenary organization numbering in the hundreds of thousands of demons, having served a myriad of demon lords--sometimes to further the cause of the Blood War against the baatezu, but often functioning as elite military for special operations.
The marilith atop this particular mound of dead fiends bears a tattoo-name on her should: Asaz-Aszix--a virtually unknown marilith, possibly taking on the banner of Alamanda in a bid to strengthen her own reputation among the tanar'ri.

So the minions think Melino is Alamanda or they were just saying Alamanda to show allegiance?
Not sure if it was clear or not but I posted the Unknown comment. Thought it would include my google account info.
Panix wants to rescue General Taramanda. Why are these twins so easily able to be impersonated? I wonder if information is by word of mouth, and signs, rather than pictures.
