I had a few questions about fiends in the d&d world. The first question I had was concerning devils and demons more specifically can the two have offspring. And would/could these offspring be considered Tieflings? Or would these fiendish creatures be a completely different race possibly a home brew race. My other question was concerning fiends souls. See, human souls can be put into objects making those objects sentient, can the same be done for a fiends soul creating a weapon with hellish properties. My final question is about Abishai specifically what they are. I can't find a solid answer online anywhere for what the Abishai are and I was hoping someone on here knew.
Demons and Devils are both evil incarnate. However, demons are beings of chaos and devils are beings of order. Neither copulate in the way humanoids do, they spawn from claimed souls or from the Abyss and the Nine Hells.
Yes, fiends could be in a sentient magic weapon just like a humanoid soul.
The Abishai are dragon devils created by Tiamat to influence the multiverse beyond her prison on the first layer of the Nine Hells.
