History:
Demons are one of the oldest races to set foot upon the plane of Taeris, having been created some thousands of years ago by Dukarn. The immortal Dukarn, one of the many sons of the Great Xian, became obsessed with the dark energies emitted by the voids of the universe. Thus, he began to absorb it and use this energy to his advantage. Among other acts, the most noted was his creation of Demons.
During this time, the Demonic Orders formed in allegiance to Dukarn. The other gods, having seen Dukarn's display of strength, felt threatened, but feared to act. It was not until one god, Aziel, choose to intervene that Dukarn was challenged by anything more than words.
In a similar fashion to Dukarn's creation of the Demons, Aziel became the father of the Angels. Imbuing the Angels instead with holy energies, he hoped to counter the growing Demonic threat. As Aziel and Dukarn battled each other on the godly planes, a simultaneous battle began between the equally matched Angels and Demons. This would later become known as the Immortal War.
After years of constant struggle between Aziel and Dukarn, the Great Xian had suffered enough of their 'futile and insignificant war'. It is said that Xian took up both of his wayward children and swallowed them. While the two were annihilated, their creations remained. Though the war between them on Taeris quickly ended, deep-seeded and endless rivalries would remain for ages.
Though recently many Demons have aligned themselves with Kach'il Mahmsun and his followers, the majority of this race remain loyal to the old Demonic Orders and stand in staunch opposition to the Cult. Condemned regardlessly by other species for their dark and sometimes corrupt ways, the diverse castes of Demons are some of the most powerful and feared creatures. Though universally seen as under the Demonic Order, Demons usually function individually or in small groups.
Demons take on no species-wide basic form, but are often humanoid and always bearing horns. Strengthened by dark and unholy energies, they are adept in the ways of both magic and supernatural physical strength. However, they are highly susceptible to light and holy magics.
