Demons / Tanar'ri
Demons are chaotic evil fiends native to the Abyss. Tanar'ri, first introduced as a group in 2nd edition, are the most prominent race of demons. Cruel with a passion, they are fiercely independent unless subdued by some greater Abyssal power. Other demons include the Obyriths, ancient demons whose hideous appearance induces madness, and Loumara, a relatively young race of incorporeal demons capable of possessing living creatures, both were introduced in 3.5 edition, and, As of November 2008, neither have been covered in 4th edition, there are also miscellaneous demons which don't fit into any more specific category, such as Quasits. In 4th edition, Yugoloths are also demons.
