Ok so Glory is a hell god she was so powerful that her buddies (two other hellgods) threw her out of there dimension which before that point they had ruled equally. They both FEARED glory cause of her power, two hell gods feared the power of one and thus had to combine to take her out. They could not or would not take her immorality which we dont know. because technically they did take her immortality because she did become mortal when her human half came out. So perhaps they did this as a punishment? Who knows we have little in history when it comes to Glory before her depowerment what we do know is that even after being depowered. 
 
Glory's powers and feats that i can remember were as follows: 
 
Super Strength and Invunrability: Glory was after a monk who knew the identity of the key he was holed up in an old building with a giant metal door keeping others out, glory punched through this knocking it down. She tortured the monk but he didnt reveal what she wanted. Buffy showed up and tried to fight Glory to her suprise when Glory hit her just once it sent her across the room and into a wall that broke. Buffy was stunned and tried fighting back Glory kept on beating on her effortlessly, till buffy got the monk and left, Glory was pissed and stomped her foot the stomping caused the building to fall on her which only slowed her down. During the show Glory was, hit by lightning by dark magic willow, she was hit with knives wihch she blocked using only her hands, she was droped right above the city of sunnydale, she was hit by a mack truck, she was also attacked by an army (seriously an army) of armed knights. She was unharmed by any of these things the only thing that did manage ot harm her was when Willow cast a spell to drain glorys stamina, they also had the buffy bot fight with glory, they hit her with a wrecking ball, they also used a troll gods hammer. After all this all she got was a bloody nose, she also was in contact with some weird orb that would hurt her for some reason. Eventually she got to weak to fight on probably due to the god hammer, she became human again and the human part was killed.  
 
VS 
 
Illyria 
 
Illyria is one of the OLD ONES. A race of beings that were pure demon and lived before humans but after the powers that be (Jasmine) Illyria was feared even amoung the old ones and became there king and as she says "a god to a god" she was killed by other old ones. She planned though in case this would happen. Even while dorment (not really dead) Her coffin was teleported to a pre ordained location. The Coffin was opened by Fred and she was taken over slowly and painfully by Illyria int he episode Hole in the world which is one of the saddest episodes you can watch. Her vessel which was Fred was to weak to contain all her power and thus she was later depowered by a special gun that drained her energies into another dimension. Anyway in the next season which was in comics called Angel After the Fall by IDW publishing. She seemed to have all her powers back at least till LA went back to earth but we dont know if she's got all her powers back she has really impressive feats after Angel After the Fall which makes us wonder if she has regained her powers.  
Magic powers: she was able to cast a spell that made everyone forget who her human half was, She also did a spell to make some snake into a giant monster that was able to seek out the key, the snake was also able to see the key. Giles said it took ALOT of power to do this and Glory didnt seem to be bothered by it.
 
Her powers and feats are as follows 

Invunrability: Wesley hit her with a battle ax to the head, she didnt look like she even felt it, the ax shattered. Spike punched her and she didnt really wince or anything just punched him back. During the mini series Angel Only Human, Illyria fought another old one who was in earlier eons her "pet" this pet had most of illyrias powers since a cult of demons stole the generator that was used to drain illyria, and shot the powers into this dorment old one, the pet and illyria fought, the pet commented on how she couldnt hope of beating her cause it had all her powers or most. None the less the battle continued with Illyria seeming not to undergo any damage. the pet was freaked, and stunned saying something like how isnt i havent killed you! or how is it i havent hurt you! In angel after the fall she beat up angels pet dragon cordelia
Super Strength VERY ABOVE AVERAGE and super human speed and fighting skills, perhaps the strongest in the buffyverse but we dont know cause other beings like Glory, and The First Evil exist: Her first feat of strength was when she back handed Harmony right across the room. She threw angel through two windows and down many floors, Later she fought both Spike and Angel, Wesley was there as backup, She dodged most of there attacks, angel did get in at least one punch which knocked her down which is pretty dumb condering her other fears of invunrability. Very inconstistant. But she did dodge gunfire from wesley pretty easy, she also dodged spike and angels combined attacks she manhandled both of them throwing both of them away like insects very easily she commented that she was "unimpressed" When Gunn was in the Wolfram and Harts hell dimension he was tortured by a very large demon, Illyria went up to the demon and back handed him defeating him easily then put on a pendant that made him torture himself since everyone in the hell dimension wears one so that the demon knows who to torture. Later on when her powers were malfunctioning and time was going back and forth in a crazy fashion, she fought angel, wesley, and spike killing all of them and lorne
Power over time and space: in her first appearnce she showed little bits of these powers. she slowed down time for one, she could also open portals easily to any dimension she chosed we can assume that. When her powers were messing up on her time was going back and forth like crazy, During Angel After The Fall the same thing happend going back and forth sept she was doing it on purpose i think, she was able to change back into her original form at times. She was tired of existance and suffering or whatever and then started to collapse everything nobody was able to stop her sept some nonsense writing about someone appealing to her emotions.

Illyria, Glory will never stand a chance. Willow's lightning attack harmed Glory. Illyria took out all the competent members of team Angel in no time flat.

Even depowered Illyria would stomp Glory.  Illyria in her true, demonic form, in her own words, was considered a god by other gods.

Glory. She super speeds and puts her first through Illyria's head.  Willow only hurt her for like a second and she came to the fight prepared.

Illyria would stomp all over Glory. You use the speed tacit. This won't work against someone who can slow down time almost to the point of it stopping. And even by some miracle Glory did lay a hand on her Illyria's durability is more than enough to take it.

That's assuming she could stop time before glory got her. Also if this was glory in her true fourm she would crush illyria. we only saw her trapped as a human and constranly strained by sharing a body with ben. she was so powerful and fearded she was kicked out of hell!

She can stop it with the wave of her hand. I don't think she would have any trouble.

How can you say that? We've never seen Glory's body. However we've seen Illyria's true body.

Yes she was kicked out of her hell. Illyria pre-dates her hell. The only reason Glory acted the way she did was solely because she wanted to return home. Illyria on the other hand can go to any dimension of her pleasing. Which btw is another way she could win this match.

@EpitomeofCool:  Not out of hell, a hell dimension there's multiple. Illyrias has more raw strength and durability in a human form then Glory, so doesn't it stand to reason that Illyria's true form would be stronger and more durable then Glorys. Also im pretty sure activating her time power is very quick in her mind, her hands just for effect i believe, so she'd activate before glory was even close, and glory would end up just like Cyrus Vail.

Ok what im saying is Glory in her weak (as stated by her) shared human body form, Illyria would win. But if this was Glory in her true form as a real hell GOD, she would easily crush her.

Sure, if Illyria in Fred's body, fought Glory in her true form, Glory would win swiftly.  Illyria in her true form > Glory in her true form, according to everything we know about them.  The word "god" means absolutely nothing here.  Illyria was called "god" by other "gods".  Illyria is far older than Glory and possibly her entire dimension.  Illyria was the most powerful being they ever showed on either TV show.

How could a pure breed demon be a god, let alone a god to a god??? Use your common sense. If Illyria were a "god to a god" , she would be relatively omnipotent. Which clearly is not the case here. Illyria at full power was killed off by her rivals, Glory at full power was BANISHED by her rivals because she was too powerful and unkillable. See the difference??? A true God is greater than a pure breed demon. Get over it and deal with it.  
 
Mayor Wilkens transformed into an Old One. Do some of you here think that he's a God? I don't think so. The Old Ones are nothing more than the first pure bred demons to ever exist. Nothing more. Illyria couldn't even control an entire dimension, let alone rule one with an iron fist(tentacle). Illyria never projected herself to me as a God, let alone "a god to a god" which in of itself is just her ridiculous false sense of superiority. She is worshipped as a god. Doesn't mean she is one. At best, you can make a case that she is a godlike demon.      
 
This "god to a god" phrase is just a figure of speech. She has a bloated over inflated ego.

Glory was also just worshipped as a god.  That's how you define a "god".  Illyria actually ruled over many dimensions, and she could move between dimensions freely and effortlessly, even in Fred's body.  She also stated she lived thousands of lives at once.  Pure blooded demons (IE the Mayor) are not the same as "old ones".  The old ones existed before anything else.   Illyria was more of an entity than a physical being.

@EmperorVulcan:
Re-watch the first couple of episodes about Glory. The Leader of the Watcher's Council clearly and specifically differentiated what level of threat Glory truly was to Buffy and her team by saying and I quote " not demon, GOD".  Glory is a God by her RACE, not because she is worshipped as one. She is a born GOD. She once possessed the power of a god. She is far older than the written word. far older than the key itself.  She described her age as "this side of forever". Her two fellow hellgods feared her power, they couldn't even begin to comprehend her level of godly powers that the best they could do was to banish her into a mortal body that was specifically created to hold her as a living shell.
 
Again Illyria was slayed at full power in her true form. Why are some of you so impressed by the Blue Smurf? She is not a god to a god. SHE IS AN EXTREMELY POWERFUL DEMON. She had rivals that were capable of slaying her which they did. To be a god to a god you have to be relatively omnipotent. Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva are true gods to gods because the Hindu trinity are truly relatively omnipotent. They displayed the power of what it is to be a god to a god. They are multiversal. Illyria is just a godlike demon.  The powers that be predated the Old Ones. She's not that ancient compared to Glory she can't be. PURE DEMONS DON"T PREDATE PURE GODS.
 
Where do you get this notion that she is a god to a god??? Just because she says so??? So what??? This is beyond ridiculous. Demons don't predate gods. And they certainly can't be a god to a god. They are DEMONS. At best they can be godlike, and that's just about it. Anything above that then they are not demons, they are something else entirely. Illyria and the Old Ones are clearly classified as A RACE OF EXTREMELY POWERFUL PURE DEMONS.

@LordFalcon: Well I seem to recall Illyria mentioning that it wasn't just one old- one imprisoning her. Illyria was the strongest, and the reason the old ones are gone is the fact that they were constantly at war with each other. Which is part of the reason the old ones are no longer here, and some left the dimension and weren't killed off, so im assuming those were the stronger ones leaving.

@nightwing91:
So what's your point? This is a fact not my opinion: Illyria at full power was slayed physically and buried along with the rest of her kind in the deeper well. This projects godness to you??? Can't argue against this. Here is another fact: in order to be a god to a god, you have to be literally higher up at the top of the cosmic food chain. You have to be relatively omnipotent, at least universal in power if not multiversal. you must be a full fledged all powerful true God and nothing less. Illyria doesn't fit any of this description - She was killed, she is a demon. she had rivals capable of and succeeded in slaying her, and she couldn't even control the earth realm. She fails utterly miserably to hold up to that title. It is just a haughty, arrogant bold claim. demons can't be gods to gods. That's beyond absurd. At her best she is a godlike demon, but not a true god, nearly as powerful as one. The Old Ones are incredibly powerful demons. That's it, nothing more.

here is the exchange between Quentin the Head Watcher and Buffy: 
 

Buffy: Just tell me what kind of demon I'm fighting.
Quentin: Well, that's the thing, you see. Glory isn't a demon.
Buffy: What is she?
Quentin: She's a god.
Buffy (after a moment of shocked silence): Oh.

@EmperorVulcan:  honest to god, i saw this thread like 5 times and each time i decided not to say anything, but good god just hush. 98% of the crap you said is just absolute non sense. Complete and utter lies. Illyria was worshiped as a god by other demons..she was never called a God by other Gods. She gave herself that title as she considered herself a god and so did other pure breed demons. Not once was it mentioned how old Glory was. Illyria ruled over one dimension...earth..more specifically California. Before you even open your mouth to talk about her army...her army was put out of sync with time..not another dimension. Not only was illyria murdered by a bunch of her enemies..but she was also murdered by wolfram and hart demons...both times at full power. Illyria was nothing more than a especially powerful demon. Glory was a God. Not just a god. A god who was feared by other Gods. Even when they teamed up against her they barely won after they fought for a thousand years. They couldn't even kill her only banish her from their dimension. Stop babbling on about old ones existing before anything else..old ones are called old ones because they were on EARTH before humans. In fact the powers that be..came before the old ones.Illyria was a being..that got bumped off twice..while at full power. And anyone can move between dimensions..a bunch of lawyers at wolfram and hart can do it..willow can do it.. vengeance demons etc etc etc. Glory could not go back home because she was banished by gods...and the only thing powerful enough to get her back was the key..which pretty much said open sesame to every dimensions in existence.You can think whoever you like wins..i could care less. but for once...just once..when you enter a buffy/angel thread..know what you're talking about..please

I thought about this question too!  
So yay, I'm happy, happy, happy.  [: 
 
 Characterwise,I personally liked Glory better than Illyria, Glory was more entertaining and had more depth to her IMO. [:  
but as far as a fight goes, I have no idea.

 Because no one on team Buffy (or the truck) had enough strength to hurt her.
 
Illyria has "killed" both Angel and Spike(who has killed a slayer or two).
Also the Turok-han(pre series finally) did the same thing. As well as many of her other foes.
The only time Illyria was ever even threatened was after she had been drained of her power because it was too great for Fred's body to contain.

I know the forum rules Spike. But people also seem to be under the assumption that it was a more powerful version of Illyria then what we've seen recently.

No because having a building dropped on her, hitting her with a wrecking ball, daggers, glass, speeding mac track and teleporting her into the troposphere and then dropping her did no damage, but willow magic to a small degree caused her pain, and then later magic used by the monks to specifically cause here pain which was used in the season finale...and a god hammer were the only things that hurt her. 
 
Wow illyria managed to kill both spike and angel by using time manipulation...cool. Funny seeing as buffy had the chance to do the same until they you know...ran away..or she let them live... minus time slowing of course. Are you seriously bringing up the uber vamp killing a bunch of inexperienced teenage girls who were literally slayers for...a minute? Any-who....Slayer > Vampire
 
Uhmm no..illyria was threatened...and then murdered...at full power which is how she got in freds body in the first place. And then she gained full power again....and was then murdered again. No body threatened her because all she did was stop time. not that it matters anyway as her current version is post generator

She's a "god" if these things did do any damage to her then I actually would be suspicious.

If and I mean IF Illyria ACTUALLY wanted to kill them(without manipulating time) she had MORE than enough strength and skill to do it. As she them both on simultaneously and destroyed them.
Nope. I'm bringing up the one who almost took out Buffy(which she thankfully killed later. They needed the moral boost).

 

Uhmm no..illyria was threatened...and then murdered...at full power which is how she got in freds body in the first place. 

By the same gods who's power lvl is completely unknown as well as the method they used. 
 

And then she gained full power again....and was then murdered again.
 

You mean when she exploded?
 

No body threatened her because all she did was stop time

  Marcus Hamilton begs to differ.

 not that it matters anyway as her current version is post generator 

Then her chances are lowered significantly.

 true story

and you think glory doesn't? 

Oh you mean the one who was stronger than a normal vampire.. it's chest was steel like and could go into homes uninvited...the one buffy still managed to kill...i'm sorry but your point is what exactly..oh are you trying to say Ubervamp=regular vamp because LOL

Gods? Old ones are not gods. In fact the only enemy that they showed of illerias was the type of old one demon that the mayor became..you know...the one the slayer killed.
 
No i mean when she was sent to hell and got gang banged by rockets and such to the face by wolfram and harts demons.
 
You mean marcus hamilton who was powered by wolfram and hart. You mean marcus hamilton who only fought her after she was depowered when you clearily stated you were talking about her before then. =/

Cool story bro.

No. Here we go again as in you start doing what you always do. Ignoring points and blowing little mistakes. So the old ones were technically never called "gods" so what? It's obvious they had power like one.

No. Here we go again as in you start doing what you always do. Ignoring points and blowing little mistakes. So the old ones were technically never called "gods" so what? It's obvious they had power like one.
LOL. You are REALLY one to talk about making leaps in logic that makes little sense. And misinformed comments......
"


You made no points. Mentioning the uber vamp as if it was in Glory's league isn't making a point.. It's called making me laugh. Mentioning Illyrias killing of spike and angel and saying it as if it meant anything..like glory couldn't do the same? Uhmm yeah pretty sure Glory beat down buffy and spike at the same time. Calling Illyria a god. Calling other old ones gods. Bringing up Marcus hamiltons beat down on de-powered illyria when talking about a pre de-powered illyria. Not knowing she had been killed by wolfram and hart demons while she was full powered all out demon mode. The only point you made was that you are misinformed, don't know what you're talking about and easily confuse yourself. 
 
Old ones aren't called Gods because they aren't Gods. There are gods in the buffyverse and she was not one. She (illyria) is a demon. She is an old one demon. The demon the mayor turned into and was killed by buffy is an old one. The demon that attacked buffy when the master was trying to escape, and was later killed in one of my favorite episodes of buffy (the zeppo) was an old one. Neauth who was also killed by fray was an old one. The slayer scythe was used to kill old ones. Sephrilian, who bent realty and had it "buckle around him" could see the past future and make his own reality was killed by buffy with one clean swipe. Starting to see the pattern here?  If she was a god they would have called her a god. Osiris is a god. Glory is a god. The group of entities willow hung out with when warren was doing his thing were Gods. Old ones are not gods...which is why they are not called gods. So spare me your so whats. Old ones are ancient very killable demons. Gods are all powerful, immortal entities that exist on higher planes. As glory so poetically put it she "could crap a better plane of existence"
 
I'm done with you..as you already know i have no patience to deal with people like you. You can sit there going NOOOOO YOU. All you like. You have fun with that.

A god is simply a being who is worshiped by lesser beings.  To say that Glory is a god, but Illyria isn't, makes absolutely no sense at all.  Feats matter more than your speculation, and Illyria has far better fats than anything Glory has.  This is incontestable.  Illyria could effortlessly bend time and space, travel between dimensions (I doubt Illyria would even need a key to travel to Glory's dimension), had physical strength on par with Glory if not greater, and seemed genuinely smarter.  Being the God of a hell dimension isn't even that impressive;  It just means she was the most powerful being in that one dimension.  Illyria was known as the most powerful being in most dimensions when she was alive and in her true form.That is the definition of a god, and Illyria most certainly was (and still is, because she cannot truly die) one.  There are infinite dimensions.  Connor survived the majority of his life in a hell dimension (Quortoth), which is said to be the most hellish of the hell dimensions.
 
Also, Illyria was never at full power.  She stated herself, in the very first episode she appeared in, that Fred's body could not contain her power, and the vast majority of her power was lost upon entering her.  Illyria was at a fraction of her power when she almost blew up and wiped out the western seaboard.  I don't know why people assume she was at full power before the Wolfram & Hart device drained her.  She wasn't.
 
Another interesting point, if Fred's body is incapable of containing Illyria, why is Glory's body also able to contain Ben?  That's 2 beings in a single body.
 
Yet another interesting point, old ones were contained in the deeper well because their essence cannot be destroyed, proving my point that Illyria, and beings like her, are far more than physical beings. 
 
BTW, you call Olaf the Troll a god, and argue when I call Illyria a god?  Are you kidding me?

I couldn't care less.  I don't care to change your opinion, but others will read it and you will look like a fool for replying merely to tell me you didn't read my post.

Oh trust me, you are the last person on this site that will be changing my opinion. As i said, when i get bored i'll actually read your post and then explain to you how everything you said was wrong. I know what you're thinking, But Cole..how could you possibly know that i got something wrong? Well you're you...nuff said. Sir if what you wrote was anything like what you wrote before then trust me..it will be you who still looks like a fool...again. I mean if you don't want to wait for me to get done watching 30 rock to make you look like a fool, just go over my last post to you and read how i did it then..mkay.

@Louisiana Bob: So if you are not going to actually post about the battle at hand. Why continue to reply with quirks. Leave it alone and reply when it actually matters instead of instigating a fight.

He instigates a fight in darn near every thread he posts in.  His first response when somebody disagrees with him is hostility.  Every single time.

 I'm not even going to bother explaining why your definition of a god is stupid. I'm just going to skip right past it if you don't mind. Glory is a God because that's what she is. Illyria isn't a god, because she is a demon. Again because apparently it didn't sink in the first time. There are actual Gods in the buffyverse. The gods willow chilled with. Osiris who willow summoned to bring tara back to life. And Full powered Glory. Old ones...are demons...ancient pure blood demons. She is not a god. I Cant make it any simpler than that. It has nothing to do with speculation and everything to do with established facts. I mean i don't expect you to know the difference as you not once but twice ran off at the mouth basically making up your own history of events in the buffyverse. Old ones were the first creatures born..illyria is older than glory..blah blah blah. I cant even call what you were talking about speculation. Just you making things up and not knowing what you were talking about. Glory was depowered and she could only gain her true form by entering her own dimension again...which 2 other Gods banished her from depowered illyrias feats over a  depowered glory has no barring on the fact that Illyria is a demon and glory is a god. Jonathan could bend time and space  and even warp reality. Is he a god too? Willow before she became powerful could send people into other dimensions..did that mean she was a god back then? Marcus hamilton had greater strength than Illyria..does that make him a God? Oh and angel when drinking his blood..became stronger...does that mean Angel became a god? Your logic is as astounding as ever.  There were old ones who created there own pocket dimensions inside cabins that pulled a TARDIS (small on the outside big on the inside). And buffy smashed said old one in 2 seconds. I could care less about your doubts. Glory was a high level magician according to Giles if she couldn't open a portal to get home that way then there was a reason for it....say idk a bunch of hell gods saying nah not gonna happen perhaps. Illeria couldn't even open a portal to get to her army in the time displacement she created herself.. when wolfram and hart put a lock on it...she needed knox to help her. But right Illeria > The key...sure I'm enjoying myself by the way. God everytime you post...right being a hell God isn't that impressive..true story. Did Quor'toth have Gods? Pylea...no Oh that's right Glory's dimension was the only dimension ruled by gods....nice. Also again with this most dimensions crap. Illyria was ruler of california..one dimension..and she was later murdered. So here you are yet again..making something up from nothing. Awesome Illyria was said to be one of the most powerful yes...how'd that work out for her? Oh yes thats right her fellow rulers ganged up on her and killed her. Nice. What happened to glory..oh well she couldn't die being immortal and all and was instead banished.

Illyria has been full power twice..once before she was killed..and then other when LA was sent to hell...and then killed again. By demons who were not old ones i might add, So there you go..being wrong again.
 
 Gee idk..maybe it was because ben was created by Gods for the soul purpose of being Glory's vessel.....unlike fred. Yeah i think that might be it.

No not yet another interesting point..just yet another thing you don't know what you're talking about. The deeper well contained the dead bodies of old ones so people did not resurrect them..you know..like illyria was.Like buffy was..like kennedy..and many others. Which is why it had a powerful warrior of good protecting the entrance (drogyn) 

No..Joss whedon calls Olaf a troll god. Because he you know created him. And he called Illyria a Demon because thats what she is. And as i told you before Olafs "godily power" was in his hammer.

Please actually know what you're talking about for once - Louisiana Bob

@EmperorVulcan: you are a saint for lasting this long man.
 
@Louisiana Bob: It's as simple as this, we don't know Glorys true form, level of strength, durability, or even what it looks like. Your arguing Glorys stronger, based on 2 words God, and demon. You can't compare Glorys true form to illyria's cause we've actually seen illyrias, we haven't seen Glorys. So in my book Illyria wins.

No it's as simple as this. You keep going on about true forms when this is a battle of most current forms. It does not matter what glorys true form looks like. Glory is a God. God's in the buffyverse >>>> demons. Old ones can be killed by humans. IIlyria herself was killed twice in her true form. Like Giles said..glorys powers have been severely diminished since being trapped in human form and the only thing to worry about is the fact that shes" invulnerable, immortal and insane" I couldn't possibly care less about who you think wins. if you think illyria wins..then more power to you. Just stick with the facts unlike emperorvulcan did mkay?

It seems that Louisiana Bob and I are the only ones who agree that Glory stomps a mudhole to Illyria. ESPECIALLY if they both were in their true forms. There is absolutely no doubt that Glory puts the Blue Smurf in her place and make Illyria "her" pet if she were in her pure form.
 
Those of you who are Pro-Illyria seem to have selective reading. You refuse to accept the obvious facts. I hate repeating myself, but lets go over this again. Illyria, when first introduced, died millions of years ago by other ancient pure bred demons IN ALL HER FULL POWERED TRUE FORM SELF. Glorificus when first introduced was *B-A-N-I-S-H-E-D* by the other two Hellgods who couldn't even kill her - and they were fighting each other for lord knows how many eons of years and they couldn't even kill her.   So put two and two together, one is a demon who was killed by other demons - again, and again. The other is a GOD who couldn't be killed by other GODS. WHO'S MORE POWERFUL??? ISN'T IT BLATANTLY OBVIOUS???
 
Ben was *SPECIFICALLY* CREATED BY THE OTHER GODS to hold Glory as a mortal prison, where only a smidgen, miniscule shred of what's left of her power can TEMPORARILY escape through BEN. Glory isn't even a shadow of her former self. Can you imagine how strong she would be in her true form?  Fred was unwittingly chosen by Knox to hold Illyria's power were she posssessed most of the Old One's power from the grave. Fred was NOT MADE to hold Illyria's power and she held most of it not all of it. Ben WAS MADE to hold Glory and only a tiny bit of Glory's power can manifest through Ben for a short amount of time. Glory was BANISHED to a created mortal body and Illyria was RESSURECTED FROM THE DEAD into an unwitting victim. Poor Winifred.  
 
Now consider that Glory, with only a miniscule of her former self, is at the very least as strong as Illyria, who held most of her power. Who possess the greater power? It's the Unkillable God, not the Ressurected Demon. 
 
The Powers That Be predated the Old Ones. Illyria and her ilk are not that ancient. They existed before man.
