Demon Constructs
Mechanical constructs powered by souls, torn back from the afterlife to slaughter.
Beherit
An egg with anthropomorphic facial features (eyes, nose, mouth) that is disconcerting to look at. The purpose of a beherit is to create a portal between Welt and the moon where the creator of the Beherit resides, granting their owners an audience with the lunar resident. A beherit belongs to a predestined owner and therefore, no matter the circumstances, will always find its way to them when said owner's desire is great enough. Upon activation, the fetish rearranges its facial features, forming a distressed face which sheds tears of blood and emits a low scream before creating a temporal junction.
Beherits are not rendered null after activation, and at any time can be used to summon its creator and offer another sacrifice for its services.
The Crimson Beherit, also known as the King Egg, is the most distinguished of Beherit artifacts, said to grant one the gifts of the moon in exchange for the owner's flesh and blood (ie. everyone they know). Appearing once every 216 years, when the time of the Eclipse draws near, owners of Crimson Beherits are destined to discard their bodies in exchange for being reborn as demons.
Behertis are seemingly laid by birds all over the planet who have some contact with Saccharomyces Demonica.  
Haunted Chest
A chest of coins, when not containing its exact contents curses those who possess parts of its contents with undeath. The curse manifests as the body diverting energy from bodily functions to essential ones, the skin rots away and the sense of smell, taste and touch all disappear. 
Moonlight decrepits the skin of the cursed. When the treasure touches seawater, it emits a shockwave, warning those cursed by it to its presence. 
Omen Globe

Haunted house fog shield
Houses that are known to be haunted or possessed by demons are surrounded by a fog shield. While the shield cannot stop people from entering, it can stop them from leaving as it will imperceptibly redirect any vehicle leaving the perimeter. 
Fel Energy
Destroying a soul to create power is known as Fel energy. Warlocks use soul shards for abilities and soul engines for demonic machines. 
Demon blood
Unlike regular arcane magic, the use of Yeast magic corrupts the user’s body and psyche.
As demon cults continue to grow in remote corners, gruesome sacrifices are held to entice demons into giving their blood in trade. The cultists use their blood to enchant the weapons they hope will bring about their masters' ultimate victory.
Yeast spells are very difficult to resist. Some can cast yeast spells after drinking demon blood. 
Demons sometimes tempt spellcasters by offering small amounts of their blood in exchange for services. Demon blood is highly addictive as well as corrupting. Anyone who drinks it has a chance of becoming dependent on the blood, and unless the person continues to drink it daily, they will suffer withdrawal symptoms. They have a chance of breaking the addiction seven days after first drinking the blood.
Demon blood has many properties; it addicts magic users and can be used to create weapons. When a weapon is forged in demon blood, it becomes a fel weapon. It glows with a foul, yellow-green fire.
Demon gate
Summoning tool and communication device to contact demons. Require sacrifices and lich level magical knowledge to operate. 
Scepter of Sagur
The Scepter of Sagur opens countless portals via the Spell of Conjuration, which tears the planet apart, creating what becomes known as a Realm. Usage of the scepter breaks the body and binds the soul to the Helm of Domination, a relic forged in the Shadowlands that tremendously expands psychic and magical powers. The Helm is sealed along with a set of armour and a runeblade in diamond-hard ice harvested from the dark depths of the Great Dark Beyond. The unnatural ice containing the Helm, armour, and runeblade are known as Frozen Thrones. Watched over by psychic vampires, the warlock's shackled soul is tasked with raising the corpses of the frozen wastes the Throne creates to form a vast army of undead, harbingers of the next demonic invasion that the Moon has planned. Control of these bound souls is ostensibly maintained by the psychic enhancement granted by the Helm of Domination.
Stone Knife of Sealing
Prevents demons from reforming on their home realm.
Summoning Altars
Some conjurings and evocations require altars to complete the ritual. Destroying altars generally dispels curses and summons. Same goes for rituals.
Demon door
Launches hot metal bits that, if it touches a biological, impregnates the host with a demon. If the metal doesn’t touch anything, it becomes a key with a random power. 
== Demon Misc ==
Forbidden Practices
Demonology, necromancy, fire magic, these are the practices that demons most often teach to their conjurers.
Yeast Magic
The highly destructive power of the Yeast is the magic of disorder. It is a brutal and extremely addictive energy fueled by drawing life from living beings. Yeast magic is a spiritual magic that life force (or HP) is transformed into with the Life Tap ability. 
Powers end, Silencing the Speaker, and the liberation of the lunar demons
Eventually, a group of Older Demons plummeted down from a portal and slammed into Welt's surface, embedding themselves in different locations across the world. 
The Bestiary was forged by the Dalmer to act as a map for the evolutionary path of flora and fauna of Welt. Unfortunately to some, the evolutionary path of worlds can succumb to disorder.
One of the Old Demons, Soggothery, used trees as a doorway into the Dream, a doorway through which the other demons could reach Welt as well. Small seeds of corruption were planted throughout the realm and, in time, these seeds sprouted into Yeast founts, polluting the Bestiary. This marked the beginning of what would become known as Nature’s Nightmare. One place where the Yeast founts held firmly is known as the Insect Empires, in the Region on fire, The creatures that had emerged from this turbulent realm were known as demons, but they are now found all across the planet.
With time, these confused new species of demons and monsters clawed their way into Welt, making their place into the world.
The Speaker, hopeful for the new colony, helped the yeasts indulge in the terrible might of Yeast magic. The destructive energy enveloped many creatures and warped their forms forever, but it also granted them powers beyond anything they had ever known. The corrupted creatures, the new species of demons, gave some of this newfound power to acolytes, uniting them as one in the emerald fires of signed pacts. 
The Speaker named his growing creations Monsters, for those made with creatures of Welt and Demons, for those that were purely made of Yeast, and he unleashed it upon the unsuspecting world. Power hunted down this vast demonic presence only to find that it was led by his prisoner. Power demanded an explanation from the Speaker but received none. Power would not abandon his creations nor let Power extinguish this new life from Welt. The two Lunar Leaders came to blows but Power was no match for the Speakers yeast power and retreated from the battle, gathering the rest of his Pantheon to stop their fallen brother. In response, the Speaker annihilated Power. The stunned members of the Pantheon returned Powers' shattered frame to the Overworld and made war on the Speaker but, in the end, neither prevailed. The Speaker engulfed himself and the Pantheon in a storm of emerald fire and shattered their physical forms. The Speakers sacrifice broke his body which was interred in the sun so that he could continue his penance. Ever since, the Pantheon works to restore Power to life, and the Speaker continues to guide the sun, an unwitting god to the demons of the Welt system.
Traits
Some demons have a pathological need to torture living beings. Others have a need to make deals to claim spirits for the pits of the nether. 
What are demons, exactly
Beings native to the underworld of the moon. They originate from the Speaker’s generals who betrayed the latter and underwent a transformation to become the Saccharomyces Demonica, the modern day demons of Welt. Monsters can be considered a subset of demons, half human hybrids with animal traits and unnatural powers. 
Are they physical or spiritual?
Demons are both, they have a physical form as a pure yeast construct or as monsters. Their spiritual form is as the yeast, which can in certain cases levitate and be more akin to a gaseous form. It is in this form that possession most often takes place.
How does Demonic Possession work?
The demon takes possession of the body, with some alterations (the appearance of the host modifies until resembling the demon in its physical form as a complete yeast construct).
Any kind of animal can be possessed, be it sapient or a creature, with a clear preference for races with opposable thumbs.
Sapients have a degree of resistance to possession, defined by their belief in demons, with the more superstitious, those with guilty consciences, and those that act in accordance with the demons conditions more likely to be possessed. 
Possession can be resisted, with a strong psychological health and a certain willpower. Not all demons are equally powerful in possession, with smaller demons less apt at possession and stronger demons having greater luck of possessing individuals. On top of this, inanimate objects and dead animals can be possessed. 
While a demon can possess several objects at the same time, it is not the case with living entities, a demon must relinquish its possession of a living entity in order to possess another. 
Possession also has entropic side effects on hosts, they tend to burn out when possession is long term. Leaving a body can be hazardous for a demon, and they cannot leave and return at will, precautions must be taken to not damage the host or the yeast when the two are separated. In some cases, the demon cannot leave the host. 
Possession doesn’t affect hosts in the same manner, some are unable to remember what happened, while others are able to see and hear what is happening or can even fight the demon for control of the body or work with the demon in a form of symbiosis. 
Exorcism is completely possible for extracting a demon from a body, but conditions differ from demon to demon. In some cases, the wrong exorcism can cause more harm than good to the host.
What do they look like?
Demons come in many different forms, some ressemble anthropomorphs, with classical demonic traits (pointed ears, scales, horns, hoofs, tails, fangs). Some are indistinguishable from classical representations of angels, vampires, goatee wearing businesspeople, scantily clad leather wearers, big red devils, living shadows with glowing eyes or even unfathomable abominations.
What is the difference between demons and devils?
Devils, satans and demons are different. 
Demons are the general category of organisms made up exclusively or of part of the Saccharomyces Demonica found on the moon. 
Satans are a type of demon, usually surrounded by legions of demons at its orders.  
Devils are a loose terminology used for several demons, some are tiny and impish, others huge and muscular, some are charming and anthropomorphic in appearance.
