The Daemon Imp is a type of daemon that can be found all over the Nether Realm. This is a small and weak creature but gifted with a vile temper, as well as an acidic bite. On rare occasions, these daemons can end up in the Mortal Realm, either by stumbling upon a random portal or by being summoned by spellcasters with sinister intentions.
Due to them being low in the infernal hierarchy, they don't possess any significant damage resistance; all types of weapons and magic work on them. If one ever encounters one in person, there are only two things to do: kill it or get someone competent in martial or magical arts to kill them.
Given the chance, a Daemon Imp will aim to kill and consume any mortal it stumbles upon, preferably in the most painful way possible. If multiple Daemon Imps manage to form a group, the results can truly be deadly.

I've decided on a slight change of pace in terms of what creatures I will be posting. Those will still be creature designs, but instead of more naturalistic designs, I'll feature some more... infernal critters. Normal creature designs will return, of course, just at a slightly later date.

Within my fantasy world, demonic entities are divided into 5 cathegories:
- Devilfolk: they are the people of the Nether Realm. They are not restricted to being evil and can be of any "alignment". They have a mostly humanoid appearance with the addition of horns, wings, tails, etc. An example of the Devilfolk is the character of Jera (who is also featured in this image.
-Daemons: those are the purely monstrous inhabitants of the Nether Realm. These creatures come in a variety of shapes and sizes but are primarily of a bestial nature. They lack reason and compassion, driven only by the urge to kill, destroy, and consume. They commit evil acts but are not consciously deliberate in their actions.
- Chaos Kin: humanoid in shape, but monstrous in appearance, they possess the consciousness and sense reason of the Devilfolk as well as the violent and vile urges of Daemons. Those are the truly evil denizens of the Nether Realm. These creatures enjoy evil and are powered by it; the more horrid acts they commit, the stronger they become.
- Dark Lords: a group of a select few (mostly) ancient entities that rule as sovereigns of the Nether Realm. Powerful beyond mortal limits, they are similar to gods in terms of might and function. Each individual Dark Lord has a domain they influence (pain, wrath, pride, etc.). Most are pure evil, but there are more neutral, or even benevolent individuals.
- Demon God: There is only one supreme ruler of the Nether Realm. The God of Chaos, Tentacolous. He is the Nether Realm personified and he created every demonic entity that resides within it.
