Demons were gifted to the first Lord of Naraka by the God of Trickery hundreds of years ago. They are from another dimension and their life and breeding cycles are extremely long and tenuous, and so even after centuries they are a very rare and tight-knit race. Demons primarily work for the Red Palace as high-level executors of the will of the Lord of Naraka. They are often stout, between 6 and 8 feet tall, and have a walking speed of 30 feet.
