Demons
 Many demons were once Angels, Fallen in early days when humanity was first created and God commanded the Heavenly Host to serve and protect them. Deceit and Pride led many of their brethren in a War against God's word, and were cast from Heaven for their troubles. Other demons were born of these Fallen Angels, filling out their ranks as they came to awareness and 'greatness'; all serving the causes of Hell. Demons are able to manipulate dark magic, possess individuals, and create contracts for mortal souls. However, they maintain a humanoid form all their own and do not require a host. All demons are able to call forth armor and weaponry from the forges of Hell. While demons can not be killed, they can be banished by exorcists, bound by powerful dark magic with the correct spells, or sent to Hell for recovery from too much damage taken from Holy weapons or light magic.

The Sins, The Unholy Trinity & Demonic Rank There are Seven Deadly Sins; Pride (Lucifer - NPC), Gluttony (Beelzebub), Wrath (Amon), Envy (Leviathan), Lust (Asmodeus), Sloth (Belphegor) and Greed (Mammon). While there are a mix of different ranks within the Sins, they are all the heads and embodiment of said sin. There are ranks outside of the sins, and even those who outrank them within the eyes of Hell. For instance, the Unholy Trinity is the uppermost echelon of Hell; they are comprised of Lucifer, Beelzebub, and Belial. As in the instance of these two specific groups, the ranks within Hell are often intermingled with one another; othertimes, the ranks may seem skewed or chaotic, depending. There is, however, always a respect between the denizens of Hell. They are, after all, in the same proverbial boat - and there is the want to win the ongoing war.

Summoning, Binding, and Contracts There are ritualistic spells used by dark witches that can call forth demons from Hell. Of course, this must be done properly or it may cause trouble for the human at the demon's discretion. Furthermore, the more powerful the demon? The more talented the witch will need to be in their craft. Once the demon is summoned, they can be bound by the witch to do as that mortal wishes; again, should they ere in this action? The witch's fate is in the demon's hands. In most cases, demons aren't summoned to be bound; they are called on to create contracts. These are set lists of favors given in trade for the mortal's soul. Contracts may also be offered to those who have not summoned a demon, though these are also up to the demon's choosing.

Ascension Like all beings within creation, demons are able to find forgiveness for their sinful ways. However, where it takes most others more simplistic routes, demons have a harder time at finding forgiveness. It takes a lot of time, and many works; aside from this, there's always someone from the ranks in the way. Other demons will always hamper another of their kind seeking redemption; they don't want to lose their forces. Therefore, ascension and forgiveness are possible; but they're tricky and rather rough to obtain. Great willpower and fortitude are needed for this.
