Though very similar in appearance to the popular conception of the Demons of the Underworld, Deamons are actually just regular people who have the same potential for good and evil as a human. Present day Deamons live primarily in the mountainous regions surrounding the Boiling Flats, where the frequent volcanic eruptions of the region keep the climate warm enough for their liking. Deamons have no difficulty in cooler climes, but most prefer to remain in the heat of their homeland.

Appearance: Deamons are tall, powerfully built humanoids with large leathery wings which they use to fly. Their grotesque (to humans) features include protruding brows, large chins, fiercely beaked noses, and vesitigial horns. Some Deamons have larger horns, which can be used for damage in close combat, but these must be purchased as strikers. Deamon skin is typically grey or black, with eyes the color of crimson. There are some variations of the theme, but no demon has yet been born that could pass for human, even in the dark. Deamons normally have little or no body hair, but tend to have a rough fuzz on head. This �hair� is usually the same color as their skin, but can be white or a dark red as well. Most Deamons wear very little clothing in their homeland, but when abroad will wear garments that would seem too warm for other races that have been made to accommodate the freedom of their wings.
Names: Deamon names usually reflect their profession, goals, accomplishments or ideals. Names such as Molluck the Fletcher, Dor Swordsmith, Qyv Huntsman, and Bollux Fairsinger are common. Deamons who associate with humans may adopt a human name to use with them. For instance, Molluck may be known as Ryan Fletcher to his human friends. Ancestry is not traced through names at all, as Deamon children are raised in a group and fend for themselves after only 6 years of life. |
