Demons

Demons are mortal creatures twisted and mutated by the fel. While they are not immortal, they do not succumb to the rigors of age nor disease. Though demons do not require sustenance, they do still derive pleasure from such activities, and thus many demons still feast, drink, and mate. Some demons, such as the Noszriel or the Illthari, have gained alien appetites and thus feast on souls, flesh, or brain matter.

As previously stated, demons are not bound by mortal limitations, though can still die due to unnatural causes such as injury. They are virtually immune to all mundane disease, and highly resistant to toxins, poisons, and most venoms. When a demon dies its soul returns to the Prismatic Dark, and is absorbed into the realm. Some demons, if powerful enough, are able to reconstitute their bodies after death. Though this process is extremely difficult making it a limited affair.

Demonic Groups
Demons are just as likely to invade each other as they are other realms. The Prismatic Dark is home to countless raging conflicts, resulting in untold numbers of dead. While the Black Order may give the impression demonkind is a monolith, it is anything but. In truth, the Black Order makes up but a mere fraction of the number of demons in the universe; they just represent the most organized. The Black Order often spends just as much energy fending off invasions from other demonic groups as they do invading the Physical.

Black Order
The Black Order is an enormous legion of demons who were rallied by Margonnath from several smaller independent demonic legions. They scour the universe, conquering and enslaving all they come across. Margonnath believed that the titan's work was unnatural, that the default state of the universe was chaos ─ not order. Aziya often likens the Black Order to the immune system of the cosmos, with the titans and their creations being the unwanted infection.

Riders of Avernus
The once beautiful world of Avernus was attacked and destroyed by demons shortly after the formation of the Prismatic Dark. It was used as a testing ground by demons for new weapons, beasts, and technologies. Over the centuries Avernus was reduced to little more than a barren, ash-covered wasteland.

The humanoid population that once thrived on Avernus were exposed to the toxic runoff of many of the demon's experiments. As a result they underwent mutation, and were eventually converted into demons themselves. To survive on their apocalyptic world, they formed into nomadic tribal bands, built on the backs of demonic vehicles. These vehicles were fueled with demon ichor, which served as the foundation of all their technology. They began to sell their services as shock cavalry to the highest bidder, and now take contracts from all kinds of demon groups.

Blink Stalkers
These arachnid-humanoids were victims of collateral damage when two opposing demon armies came to blows in physical space. Their planet was bathed in netheric energy, and as a result its population were twisted into demons. Now they prowl the Prismatic Dark as shadowy assassins, killing any and all demons they come across.

Warp Stalkers are named thus due to their unique ability to teleport, or blink, short distances. They use this ability with deadly efficiency, striking at random targets and fading away just as quickly as they came. They are infamous among demonkind as pests, and are hunted down with extreme prejudice.

Shadow Council
This economic organization once started as a sub-group of the Black Order, but has since grown beyond into its own independent entity. Primarily composed of satyrs, the Shadow Council serves as part bank, part tax collector for the Prismatic Dark. The Black Order works closely with the Shadow Council to fund its ever growing conquest, and the demands for technology & mercenaries.

The Shadow Council created felstone, which acts as a sort of currency for demonkind. It is made up of coagulated demon soul, and has a variety of uses; chiefly fuel, currency, building material, and even food.

Red Light
Ran by the Imp lord Pimpin, Red Light is a demon's one-stop-shop for all things debased. Virtually every world, location, citadel, floating island, and so on in the Prismatic Dark has a Red Light district. There one may find all manners of carnal pleasures, whether it be gambling, drug use, alcoholism, sexual encounters, and anything in between.

Dreddman's Crew
Following the disastrous battle of Blackheart's Nebula, the Black Order was forced to flee the region. In doing so they stranded many vessels and demons, most of whom fell to attrition. The Dreddman was one such vessel. Crewed almost entirely by erenar, and captained by a doom guard, the Dreddman fell back on a life of piracy. Consumed by the rage of their defeat by titanic forces and fueled by the betrayal of the Black Order, the Dreddman quickly grew to be the most infamous pirate vessel in both physical and demonic space.

Wyrd Guard
The Wyrd Guard are an elite core of demons who specialize in siege tactics and trans-dimensional combat. The Wyrd Guard are often contracted out when another demonic faction must contend with an opposing enemy from a different plane of existence.
