Homebrew DemonBorn Species Details

This is a homebrew race I made for my homebrew setting. They typically have red skin, are more accustomed to the tropics, and horns at the top of their head. Instead of coming from infernal heritage, it derives from abyssal heritage.  The prevalent culture in my setting is that they come from a tropic mass of volcanic islands known as Hyvarre which is supposed to resemble island-hopping imperial Japan. Hyvarre has been under one-party control for over a couple of centuries and follows an empire system.
