When determining your character’s ability scores, increase one score by 2 or increase two different scores by 1.

Demons do not age, and most have no sense of their age.
They may stop maturing visually at any given stage of their life, though this has no effect on their power.

You can speak, read, and write in Common and one exotic language of your choice.

Demons can be any alignment, though they tend toward Evil, Neutral, and Chaotic alignments.

Demons stand between 3 and 8 feet tall, Your size is Medium or Small. You choose the size when you select this race.
You may change size when you undergo your Arch Demon Transformation.

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

You can see normally in total darkness, both magical and nonmagical, up to 300ft.

Standing in direct sunlight weakens you, and your eyes will never adjust properly.

You have disadvantage on all attack rolls, physical checks and saving throws, and on Perception checks that rely on sight when you are standing in direct sunlight.
This weakening happens regardless any clothing or equipment you have equipped, unless it is magical and specifically helps creatures with Sunlight Sensitivity.

You are a Fiend, you are vulnerable Radiant damage, as well as attacks from silvered weapons.

What kind of Demon are you?
Choose between Martial, Hybrid, Caster or a Variant.
The following features change depending on your current type.

Natural Weapons

Martial and Hybrid Demons grow claws, fangs, spines, horns, or different natural weapons of their choice.

All natural weapon attacks deal either Bludgeoning, Slashing, or Piercing.
Bludgeoning uses Strength.
Slashing uses Strength or Dexterity, whichever is higher.
Piercing uses Dexterity.
Hybrid Demons deal 1d6
Martial Demons deal 1d8 and can make an attack with their natural weapons as a bonus action.

Innate Focus

Caster Demons posses a special internal organ that allows them to cast spells without a focus, most commonly it would be opposite the hearts position.
However they can be destroyed, and other times Demons are targeted for their Internal Focus as they are quite useful for magic item crafting, and can possibly be implanted into another creature granting them its benefits.
Hybrid Demons posses a special external organ that they can use as a focus, most commonly it would be built into their Demon Armor or Natural Weapon
If the focus takes damage from an attack that was specifically directed at their focus, it is destroyed and will be repaired over the next long rest.

Hybrid and Caster Demons have proficiency in Arcana checks.

Flight

Almost all Demons can fly, most have wings, some even have multiple pairs, though some fly without them, and others yet have wings and fly without using them.
Martial Demons have fly speed equal to their walk speed and can fly while using any armor.
Hybrid Demons have fly speed equal to their walk speed with hover and can fly while using medium or lighter armor.
Caster Demons have fly speed equal to their walk speed with hover, to use this you cannot be using medium or heavy armor.

Demon Armor

All Demons are able to passively grow armor on their body, due to this you have an unarmored defense of 13 plus Dexterity.
Hybrid Demons have a +1AC bonus
Martial Demons have a +1 bonus on AC and saving throws.

While wearing normal armor you only gains it's AC if it is higher than your Demon Armor.
You can use a shield and still gain this benefit.
