Demonkind exist. They have been with us since our earliest years, forming the foundations for humanity's greatest fears. Whatever their purpose, whatever their plans, they are now and forever a part of our world.

Extra Facts

Collecting/Harvesting/Reaping: Human souls can be used for two things: the first and second most popular is energy. Demons do not feed physically to survive. A human soul can provide a food source for demons, even if not nearly as strong as the power gained from killing a demon. The second and most popular usage is for extracting aspects of their humanity. Demons may store things such as emotions, memories, sensations, even states of being like innocence, in specially-made crystals. These crystals are made to dissolve in hot drinks and then consumed, allowing the drinker to experience whatever was stored within. The mixing together of crystals is considered foolish, as it can leave demons impaired for days or weeks at a time. There are some demon-run "bars" where not only these drinks are served, but where captured humans will be forced to drink them, usually mixed concoctions, for the demons' entertainment.

Possession: A demon will possess a human for a number of reasons. To do so, they must enter one of the Realms, and from there locate their target and enter them in an incorporeal "spirit form". Once done, the human's mind is generally pushed far down into their subconscious. Humans almost never experience anything, or remember anything, from the periods that they were possessed - that is, assuming the demon left or was banished/exorcised without the vessel being killed. Possessing a human limits the demon's powers by a fraction, the size of which depends on the demon's own power. The stronger the demon, the more of its power will be taken away while it controls a human form. Whenever a demon manifests on Earth physically, and hides its true form, there is always something that makes them recognizable, and not just as a demon. For each demon the mark is unique. It may be the color of their hair, eyes/eye, or some symbol or something on their body. When possessing a human, there is no mark. So, if a demon is being hunted, possessing a human allows a way to hide from their enemies. Other times it is to manipulate humans, driving families to kill each other. When possessing a child the demon's intentions are usually to drive the parents to such a level of grief that they kill their own child, which does no harm to the Demon within. Sometimes, in rare cases, demons share a host's body. They will generally consult the host, offering a sharing of power and even control of the body in return for immortality. There are a few extremely rare cases of humans born with no soul. These empty things are entirely malevolent, and demons who possess them can become ensnared by the body. Of course, stronger demons can always break away, while something as strong as a Greater Devil, Elder Devil or Archdemon could simply kill the soulless carcass and move on.

Banishment/Exorcism: When a demon possesses a human, and it has been uncovered, demons and humans can evict the being from the host shell. Exorcism can be done in many ways, usually with incantations and symbols employed to bind and/or weaken the demon's hold, though the effects these things have are relative to the demon's own power, both mental and supernatural. Banishment is much different, and much harder. The banishing of a demon is not simply the forcing of a demon from a body, but the expelling of a demon from Earth completely. This is only temporary, however, and the length of time is always different, lasting anywhere from hundreds of years to a few seconds. While any demon can be banished or exorcised, Archdemons are known for being stupidly difficult to evict.

Realms: The Realms are artificial dimensions created by powerful, higher-class demons, most commonly Greater Devils, Elder Devils and Archdemons, though some Devils and lesser demons have been known to craft their own domains. The human concept of "Hell" is purely of their own invention - though some ancient demons lay claim to having assisted in the formation of the idea. While some Realms are "hellish", others are very different, all depending on the current ruler's whims.

Power Rings: Power Rings are formed by demons who wish to amass power. By sharing their powers, they immediately become much stronger, and any power gained by one is equally shared by all involved. There is, however, a risk involved. Should one demon in a Ring be slain then the entire covenant will suffer for it, becoming noticeably weaker for it. The oldest known Ring is The Sins, an ancient group of Archdemons who long ago cemented their place amongst demonkind. Their age, knowledge and strength make them nearly untouchable by most other demons and Rings. Called ?demonic psychologists? by some, the Sins long ago mapped out the darker parts of the minds of all beings, naming them the Seven Deadly Sins, and mastered the application of their influences to ruin others. The members of another famous Ring, the Four Horsemen, are currently held as the rulers of Earth.
