Demons

== Description ==
Every demon is individually named after an exotic or unheard-of animal species. Each demon lives up to their name and adapts to harness the abilities of its namesake. Females tend to lose colour in their skin and are re-functioned to be pumped with an unusual amount of testosterone after being turned into a demon, whereas males typically lose their hair and can become an array of different vibrant colours - most commonly being red.

There are 11 main demons for now, here is the list of them (not including starved forms): Chevrotain, Colugo, Jerboa, James, Daryll, Tenrec, Markhor, Echidnas, Hoatzin, Atretochoana, and Satan.
== Types of Demons ==
While each layer of hell is unique to itself, they also determine a demons strength, type, and appearance depending on where it ends up. The term 'Demon' is used to describe an entire group of creatures that sprout from the same genetic tree; Imps, Succubi, Incubi, Gargoyles, and of course those that are a mix of any two. 
The following list describes a demon from each layer's appearance and strength.
=== Limbo ===
Demons from limbo are often Imps, albeit; being a mix of something else isn't impossible for these guys. Their colours can range anywhere from red to blue. They are often considered to be undisciplined and are considered lowly by any demon of a deeper level. Most of limbo demons end up being taken and becoming slaves in layers like Greed and Wrath.
=== Lust ===
A demon from lust is human-like, always being either Succubi (female) or Incubi (male). They have a loose colour range, meaning they can end up any colour possible. Lust is surprisingly a chill layer, consisting of a new-york esque city inhabited by many, many questionable shops, bars, and 'clubs'. Lust demons are prominently immune to boredom in their respective layer.
=== Gluttony ===
It's a good thing for gluttony demons to virtually be unable to be too overweight (due to every demons unnaturally fast metabolism). It's said that gluttony demons are often either Gargoyles or Imps, with a 'fleshy' pink-to-red colour range. Not many gluttony originating demons stay in that layer, because of its unnerving and gross meat material, making it not only unappealing, but also nearly inhabitable for housing.
=== Greed ===
Greed used to home any new coming demons to it's layer, providing a house and a comfortable life. However, ever since Hoatzin's ruling, any new demons that are put into 'his' layer are immediately placed into slavery. "If they want a new shot at life, they have to work for it", he says, as if he's done any work himself the past century. Anyhow, greed demons are often Imps, ranging from yellow to more darker golden or gray colours. The most common type of slavery in this layer is mining. If any demon is caught stealing the riches they find, it is punishable by a submerging in holy water.
=== Wrath ===
Demons from wrath are popular for their messenger system. A wrath demon can oddly be any type of demon. Their colour ranges from red hues to orange-yellow hues, possibly with hints of blue. They are particularly known for not only their great swimming, but their defiance and disrespect for authority, which results in many wrath demon's imminent death. While demons from other layers can also have wings, demons from the wrath layer most commonly have the winged gene, while some other wrath demons also commonly missing the tail gene.
=== Heresy ===
Heresy demons are strictly Gargoyles. Any mixed demons from Heresy are very rare. Heresy demons are often deeper vibrant colours, such as blood red or royal blue, and are also often slightly smaller in height, as any gargoyle should be. Heresy demons, like wrath demons, also do commonly have the winged gene. Heresy demons are often used for aerial purpose in war scenarios.
=== Violence ===
Violence demons are most definitely a well-known group of crazy blood-hungry psychos. This is why they are often displayed at the front of the army, barreling through as many enemies as possible to soothe their urges before the opposers reach the demons of the other layers. They are often called 'mimes of hell' because of their lack of coloured skin, almost just as lacking as their empathy. Most demons from violence are a mix of two species, one of them often being Imp.
=== Fraud ===
Fraud demons are all usually a mix of incubi/gargoyle and succubi/gargoyle. Most are employed to head to the surface and steal from humans or angels, with the help from their explicit disguise, and experience of course. The majority of fraud demons are dressed in a hooded cloak, giving them a distinctly sketchy appearance.
=== Treachery ===
No demon is reborn in this layer. It is a layer that any demon can visit; albeit with strict rules put in place.
== Fear as a species; A separate type ==
These specific 'creatures' are not any normal type of demon. They are far beyond any normal depiction of monstrosity or hellishness. They are the physical manifestation of the personalities of the worst people to live on earth. While these beings can't exactly physically hurt you, their appearance and the things they can do to your mental state will live in the minds of any victim. Their face and body can morph to become anything that their victim finds the most disturbing, usually ending up uncanny. They can only travel through intense fear and anticipation of its arrival. The only way to rid one of your head is to muffle its presence with holy and faithful thoughts.
