At a Glance

Demon is a general term comprising all fiends spawned in the Abyss. Notably, this includes tanar’ri— all tanar’ri are demons, but there are a few demons who aren’t tanar’ri. Demons are irredeemably chaotic and evil monsters who respect only power. They are led, to the extent that they obey anything, by demon lords.
