I am no master of words but I can sketch up a little bit of a design and some points, using what I've seen from an application on Annie's characters and some other things we can safely assume about demons. As to get rid of confusion. Of course even if it was accepted, it wont place specific hardened boundaries on everyone, just ideals that they can follow and use to get a better understanding of their demon characters as well as what might be a weakness.
This is because of the recent addition of some demonic characters, including myself. I believe demons should start playing a big part in the server and could become a new antagonist. I mean honestly, vampires should not be the thing everyone hates and neither should Lycans. Demons are literally the most dangerous and destructive of all fable creatures, they are minions of the most evil being that could possibly exist(In a mythological sense.) and their power is fairly hysterical, depending on if they are a full demon or demon lord or not. But this is a tradeoff as the most powerful of demons are often the most hunted and the moment they show their liveliness to the public, they quite often become hunted by everyone around them, which is where a half demon or partial demon would have better chances of surviving long term, as they'd attract less attention.
Demons and their traits:
In General:
Depending on the level of corruption, demons can sense eachother. They sense the corruption and connection to hell, the more corrupt a demon is, the stronger the pheromones. Unluckily for most fables and including lycans, unless they would have knowingly encountered a demon and their scent in a previous encounter, the scent would just be a mystery to them. Although many describe the scent as alluring and sweet, which is most strongest in a succubus oddly enough, even though they are a minion.
Succubus(Minion):
They look very much like a human, depending on their sex. They cannot change their appearance, but they can very well mutilate themselves if they have to as they will heal fairly quickly. When angered, in pain or in fear they go fairly pale and the more of these emotions they experience the paler they go. This physically barely effects them, but eventually when they look like a white sheet of paper, people start to question if they are actually human.
They are minions or are either free, depending on their purpose. Although in the presence of a demon they are more inclined to be submissive, but generally speaking if they've been free for long, they can tell a full demon to take a hike. Half demons and partials have barely any authority over them though as they recognize their scent but would visually see them as human, which would just scream two words into their minds "ABOMINATION." and "FREAK.".
Holy artifacts and blessed water damage the Succubus similarly to a first degree burn, in most cases it's barely damaging, pain being the only real factor here.
They possess the same strength as a Sanguine Augustine and their speed would be that of a Fledgeling Augustine.
They have the ability to influence the emotions and minds of humans, as well as fables, although fables are generally effected less. Primarily vampires are the least effected by a Succubus and their minds are less clouded. Of course the Succubus's main trait is seduction, so making someone extremely friendly and kind towards them, even though logic might dictate a complete opposite is their skill, although they will find some difficulty in getting someone to express emotions of anger or hatred, as in to get someone to kill a friend. These kind of actions of hatred or killing towards others would probably take a lot of coaxing and corrupting on the Succubus part as well as some break in will power on the victim.4
They take around 1.2 times the amount of damage a human can take and generally speaking, a bullet/knife to the head or neck will kill them no matter what.
They are slightly irritated by religious chants and it could be compared to having someone banging drums next to their ears, but if their motivated enough they can block it out and continue whatever battle/seduction they were doing.
Demon Lord(Lord - Very Very Fast Healing):
They are just a much stronger version of the full demon and act sort of as a necromancer. They can raise creatures like hell beasts and transform their bodies at will.
Full Demon(Mini Lord - Very Fast Healing):
Physically they are very large, like a behemoth, their skin is red and is like a hard chitin of an ant. When angry they become engulfed in flames, although that's all.
Born from hell, a damned soul transformed into a minion of the devil. They are completely corrupted and in rare cases can find themselves(Like 1 out of 1000 demons) showing kind acts towards humans, which is where half demons can occur in a sort of weird romantic relationship. Although this only occurs when they out of hell and have prolonged exposure to humans, which can lower their level of corruption, but it's almost impossible to happen.
They are as strong as a Veteran Augustine and as fast as a Sanguine Augustine. They are specifically not as fast as their children since they are so large and strong, their children being more of a jack of all trades because of the fact that with the smaller size from the human genes, they are much lighter, while still retaining some of the strength and power of a demon.
They live for an eternity and are not effected by mortal diseases or aging.
They can take about 5-10 7.62 rounds to the head, while their chest can withstand up to 20-40 rounds before they die. Although holy water will melt their hide and flesh away slowly, equal to that of tossing sulfuric acid onto a human.
Slightly influenced by religious chants and it could be compared to a ringing sensation in their ears, which is not specifically painful so much as it's just disorientating, which can make their attacks more displaced and random.
Half Demon(Minion - Fast Healing):
Visibly they have a complete red skin, which can be concealed with makeup. When angry their eyes glow extremely bright and their skin crusts, their finger nails transforming into claws similar to that of a wolf, which makes them look very much like a full demon, although they'd be much smaller and physically they'd still be the same, except for their skin being slightly tougher. In this pissed off form though, they find themselves able to fight more efficiently, as it's sort of a blood lusting state.
These are half demons, the offspring of a pure demon and a pure human. They are completely conflicting and their corruption is that of fifty percent. It is possible, although very unlikely to be one that is less corrupt as a half demon, although it'd require a lot of selflish actions and a devotion towards a more holy path. Even so, they'll kill for pleasure and without remorse, quite often going into a blood lusting state when they lose control of themselves, which will happen once in a while.
They have the strength and speed of an Adept Nosferatu, which seems to be a good mix of speed and strength, except they aren't indestructible walls of flesh like their parent demon and are not too hard to kill.
They can take about 5-10 7.62 rounds to the head, while their chest can withstand up to 20-30 rounds before they die. Although holy water will tear at their skin and cause second degree burns.
They live for a few hundred years and are not effected by mortal diseases.
Slightly effected by chants, although it's compared to just listening to really bad music, it barely disorientates.
Partial Demon(Minion - Improved Healing):
Physically they look like a regular human and their true selves only come out when angry. When angry, their skin goes a complete red and slightly hardens, but not as severely as a half demon. Their eyes glow red, but not too intensely and their nails crust as well.
This is where a demon is a quarter or near that, where in case their father or grandfather was a half demon. They are more human then demon and have about the same self control over themselves as a Lycan in terms of their carnal nature. Many are very capable of living lives of serenity, although violence and killing will always be in their hearts like an addiction that stays with them from child to death.
They can take about 1 7.62 round to the head but are most of the time knocked out from the impact of the blow or receive brain trauma, while their chest can withstand up to 4-6 rounds before they die. Although holy water will tear at their skin and cause second degree burns.
They are, depending on their lineage are either equal to that of the speed and strength of a Sanguine Nosferatu or an Adept Nosferatu.
They live for an average of about 100-170 years and are affected by mortal diseases as well as aging, but it's slowed.
No effect from chants.
Creature:
This is just generally any creature, there is no limitations on this but generally speaking, anything this is a lesser of a demon is considered to be a minion like the succubus. Although anything that's specifically magical like a necromancer, will be classed as a Mini Lord.
/// Not even proof read or checked, just wrote this. I'll put some work into this maybe later if I get some positive feedback about it. Might actually make this look proper as opposed to the jumbled mess it is now.
