Demon Overview
A demon is a type of fiend. It is usually chaotic evil and from the plane of the Abyss.[1]
The most widespread race of fiends are the demons, a chaotic evil race native to the Abyss; they are rapacious, cruel and arbitrary. The dominant race of demons is the tanar'ri. The Abyss and its population are both theoretically infinite in size. "True" tanar'ri such as the Balors (originally called Balrogs) and the six-armed serpentine mariliths push other weaker tanar'ri around and organize them into makeshift armies for battle. Demon lords and demon princes such as Orcus, Demogorgon, Zuggtmoy, Graz'zt and countless others rule over the demons of their individual layers of the Abyss, in as much as the chaotic demons can be ruled over.
