Homebrew Daemon Species Details
Daemons are creatures manifested from hatred of sorts, but differently, these ones are formed from what is hated rather than the hatred itself. ("Those who hate kindness, form a demon that is kind beyond belief." etc.) These creatures can form anywhere, but most are formed and trapped within one of the layers of hell. They own wings, horns and tails like most devils, but they are unable to fly completely, only having the ability to glide due to the density of their bones and the frames of their wings being too heavy. These types of Daemons motives are unpredictable due to their nature of forming and the fact that they form from manifestation rather than birth or creation.
