Demons were immortal beings that were directly linked to the cosmic plane known as the Twisting Nether, and as a result veer towards chaos and discord and have an innate connection to fel magic. True demons have a demon soul, which can reform in the Nether if they are slain outside of it. Those who have been changed by fel magic but do not have a demonic soul are called fiends.

Types of Demons

There are a variety of different demonic types, some of which were spawned from the Twisting Nether, while others were non-demonic species that fell victim to its corrupting nature.

Demonic Worlds

Due to the consuming nature of the Twisting Nether, entire planets can become lost to its chaotic expanses, which can convert the world into a fel-touched wasteland ruled by the demonic denizens of the Nether.
