Demonian Demons

**Demonian Demons**, or just Demons in Uckism, are a native fireling species found in different areas around the nether and Demonian Nether in particular. They are native evolutions of small chromosomes first born by the hands of the gods to guard the doors that trap the gods. They were part of the initial push of migrants from the world of Jagdas into Rathnir.

## Phenotypes

### Eye Colour

Red, Blue, Purple, Brown, Light Blue, Gold

## Culture

### Language

Demonian

They are most prominent on the continents of Sørligste, Syltor, and Nieden but small subgroups of Demonian Demons can be found in Haven, Sparwood, Plagos, and really most continents in Rathnir. They are known for a very unique style of living and sometimes very fiery and over-the-top personalities. The first of the species in Rathnir was brought just after the Jagdasian collapse and a wide variety came to Rathnir.

It is fairly well known amongst the species that there are 5 main groups of Demonian Demons each originating from evolution based on the different biomes they are found in. First are the Earth Demons of the soul sand valleys, Second is the Flame Demons of the Crimson Forests, Third is the Water Demons of the Warped Forests, Fourth is the Air demons of the Nether Wastes, and finally the rarest, purest, holiest breed of Demons, Void Demons.

## Practices and Traditions

### Painting and Art

Painting is a very basic skill that all demons learn at some point in their school life. Most paintings use a lot of Red, Brown, Blue, and Gray as these are very easy paint colors to make. Most are crushed nether flowers mixed with lava. Most Demon children will learn it by 3000 years of age which is very little in comparison to graduation from school.

### Carving

The first ways of communication through tribes of Demons before they united under the flag of Demonia was to carve symbols on the colors of wood found uniquely in the biomes of tribes. Some tribes would fuse wood types if they lived in 2 different biomes. They would have people carry these carvings to other tribes to build relations and sometimes would even send gifts of peace along with the initial carvings

### Eating and Diet

For a long time before the overworld was discovered, there weren't a ton of options. Meats were very rare and the only kind really around was pork from Hoglins. Lots of spices, Nether vegetables, and soups were what Demons consumed on a daily basis. Once the overworld was discovered through meats like Mutton, Steak, and Chicken became available for the species. This brought a whole new side of Demonian Demon culture for food. Things like slurping became prevalent at this time and are considered gestures of kindness as it is usually interpreted as you enjoy the food.

### Manners and Gestures

Gestures and Manners can differ from areas, biome, and actual race of the demons. Flame demons' most common gesture is cutting the tip of the thumb and trailing the blood down the temple of one another. It's a sort of romantic gesture. For earth demons stirring different soul sands and spreading them on each other's bodies is fairly common. For air demons lightly blowing at one another is soothing and means to help relax.

### Clothing

Traditionally demonian demonic clothes are made of fabrics that are stripped from different trees, logs, and leaves to make silky fabrics. Females usually long skirts that turn into a dress at the top. Males will wear dressed and fitted shirts with kilts or their own skirts. Fabrics can be used to buff the feeling of lava being poured over the body and make it feel even better than normal.

### Pets

Certain pets are perfectly allowed in Demonia such as Striders and Hoglins but others are not. Wither Skeletons and Piglins are considered smart and sentient beings in their own right so it's considered slavery to hold one as a pet. Blazes and Ghasts are not really sentient but are too dangerous to hold. Generally, pets are from the overworld like dogs or cats.

### Weddings and Marriage

Depending on the races of the demons being married they may do traditional gestures like the Flame way of smearing blood or the Earth way of rubbing earth and sands on one another. Marriages don't have to be 2 demons they can be 3, 4, or even 5. It's not very common to have more than 2 but it can happen. The royals of House Talatra are barred from having multiple wives or husbands until they find 1 they can truly meld with.

### Music

Music in the nether was never really a thing until the overworld and nether could intertwine. The Overworld holds most of the music that demonian demons properly listen to. There aren't many traditional instruments at all. Even with this, demons love music.

### Values

Different values can be pushed away or pushed forward for the species. Things such as being unique and yourself are held in families at a high value. Probably the biggest value to demonian demons is friends or family. In demonian demonic culture, demons hold friends higher than family. It is said that family is obligated to you but they are not always your friends. Friends are eternal.

### Gender and Sex

For demons, there are really 2 genders. Male and Female. But demons don't necessarily have to be one. At a certain age, demons will be able to shapeshift at will, and with this many don't necessarily align with their birth gender. Some even switch back and forth depending on how they feel or what they wake up as.

### Festivals

Festivals for demons are essentially massive parties. After the overworld came into the picture music would be incorporated into festivals along with food and structures. Demons love festivals and love the idea of partying in the light of something or someone whos had a major accomplishment.

## Language

Traditional Demonian was heavily influenced by the eruption of the Overworld branching into the nether and expansion of Demonia into the Nether. The basic language uses a lot of Ts, Ks, Ns, Ys, and Hs. There are basic phrases that are different such as Eiulu meaning Hello, Yiuki meaning Thank you, and Erana meaning You're welcome here.
