MY DF GAVE THE OK TO INFO DUMP ABOUT THEM TO THEM AND SIIIINCCEEE I DON’T WANT TO SPAM THEIR MESSAGES HERE’S INFO HERE:
Firstly…. I know some of this is gonna sound mEH but this little demon species I made means the goddamn world to meeeee and my lil traumatized ass so don’t b mean™
Now originally I only made a few. Like as a coping mechanism. That was back around middle school because that is definitely where depression™ started. I love demons so much and I was like…. yes demons I’m make them….
Originally, and this still pretty much holds up, they are always themed off of something. And whatever they are themed off of determines their main power.
Now in my original drafts, all of them had a tattoo of the symbol of their power. It was black everytime. Now that does not hold up anymore, instead I gave them what I call “insulators”. They act as a container for their magic and they cannot perform their magic without it on. The insulator is also capable of keeping their physical forms together. If you apply enough force to their forms they will uhhh explode and immediately go back into regeneration within their insulators. So essentially their souls are in their insulators. This is symbolic of going through a traumatic experience and then shutting down and going into recovery. Due to what this is based on, the recovery times vary extremely dependent on what happens to the Necromite at hand. Sometimes it takes more force to break one Necromite than it does with others. It really depends on their level of power and mental endurance to keep themselves together. Once they reform, they come back and are generally ok after that until some fucker hurts them again. While it’s based off of physical force, it COULD also be mental trauma to them too. So physcologically tortuing one has about the same effect as physically dependent on the Necromite, and they will pop and go back into regeneration. However sometimes instead of going back into regeneration, they lash out and go into a “beast form” of sorts. Except….the beast form is what they look like anyway. Necromites are a species that wants to blend in, because what they generally look like scares things that don’t understand their somewhat horrific appearance. They project a form of the predominate species of their area. Most of the time, it’s probably humans tbh. So human/humanoid forms 9 times outta 10 most likely. However they can shift into anything so long as they see it in action. They are not perfect at this, however, and no matter what form they’re in they will always have: horns (any amount, but has to be at least one), long ears, and their insulators. Now insulators can practically be anything but once they choose one they have to stick with it forever. The way it works is that the (probably child?) chooses an item they like and choose to put themselves in that essentially. Until then the parents/guardians help them keep their forms stable if they’re projecting. If they have no one to help them do that, they cannot disguise themselves without an insulator. Generally, insulators are accessories like jewelry or something (not necessary, can be anything within reason that they can have on their person.). Just so they don’t look out of place. They’re extremely sensitive to people touching their insulators and mostly do not allow it. There’s a good reason for this of course. Because, as you can probably guess, if you destroy the insulator you kill them. Destroying an insulator is actually extremely hard though. There’s no specific way to do it but they’re just extremely durable to the point of which someone who is not magic probably cannot achieve breaking it. Regardless though yes they are paranoid so do not touch it unless you want an ass kicking. Now they mostly live in villages with a bunch of other Necromites. Very, very rarely do they live in a place that does not have at least one other of their kind, and if they do it probably involves a significant other of another species. (tHAT IS THE SAME of their projected species so no weird shit….) Speaking of….since it’s relevant, yes they can reproduce with different species if they wanted to, but since they’re immortal they don’t really have to. But y’know sometimes people want kids or whatever so. Yeah.
Now generally, Necromites are under rule of their Queen. Who resides in their dimension of origin. She gathers up incredibly powerful Necromites and raises them to do what she says, and what she wants them to do is colonize other places all around different dimensions. There are 5 classes to those who live under her rule:
Citizen->Servant->Solider->Commander->Elder
Citizen lives there and does general citizen shit. I mean…y’know whatever the fuck people do when they live somewhere.
Servant is a servant. That’s pretty straight forward. They do shit for her and reside in her palace or whatever I haven’t decided wtf she actually lives in yet bc I’m soooo good at this.
Soldiers are the fighters. They are essentially…yeah?? They’re soldiers man they fight battles and take out opposition.
Commanders train the soldiers and protect the Elders.
Elders are the most powerful and are exceedingly gifted when it comes to magic, charisma, and cruelty. They are the ones sent out to colonize. Sometimes it’s a matter of convincing the people of the area they go to colonize bc they’re stupid….hence the charisma aspect.
Most of the time though, people don’t want to be under a new rule, especially if they didn’t have one in the first place. If they do, the Elders kill the leader. If they don’t, the Elders kill a couple of the people in example of what will happen should there be anymore opposition. This has been going on as long as the species has been existent. Queen is the literal God to the demons and she can spawn demons from thin air if she wanted to, but she much prefers to just let them grow from a baby. Some things to keep in mind are that she is a cruel tyrant and she really only cares about expanding her influence and nothing else. She is about 40 feet tall. She has the ability to control any demon of the Necromite species so long as they are pure Necromite. Meaning that if a Necromite bred with a human the baby would be half human, in which case she only has half control. She’s evil as evil gets and also insanely powerful, there has never been opposition to her…. EXCEPT….. until a Necromite named Gin came around. He was used by her since birth and is arguably the second most powerful Necromite alive behind Queen herself. For a long while, until about his late teens, he worked for her without question. He was not capable of emoting or understanding emotions all that well. Some would say he was even apathetic but that really was not true. One day one of the commanders he was assigned to started picking on him while the other 6 Elders he associated with were not paying attention. This commander is named Luciana. (She belongs my best friend) She was raised from birth to die for her cause if need be and that was all that mattered, except….. she’s pretty quirky and silly. And she saw something different in Gin than she did any other Elders. She had the hunch he could be a much better person than he was raised to be. And she was right. She also fell in love with him. He didn’t really know this at the time, and therefore he came off as rather insensitive to her feelings and hints that she dropped at him. Eventually, he ultimately decided he was done being a pawn to Queen. He was going to rebel. He told Luciana and a few citizens who shared his views of wanting to be free and he put his plan…. well actually he did not have anything planned he just did it. He was successful, and he took Luciana and the citizens to a world that the Necromites had never been before and sealed off the portal and any traces of energy that would have helped in tracking them down. He was injured, of course. He had to fight Queen before he was able to leave after all. He did not succeed in killing her though, only fazing for a short amount of time. And well? Gin and Luciana’s group of people were free now. It was the first time anyone had done that and so they had to work together to make their village, which still stands to this day. And if you’re wondering…. yes Gin and Luciana are married and they are cute as fuck. Gin is now dead though but there’s a lot more to things than that. To keep this post from getting any longer though I’m going to summarize: Gin instated six other Elders to work with him and lead the village and they weren’t really that nice. He also recruited 7 more potential Elders and trained them and raised them, acting as their fatherly figure and treating them as more than their ability to destroy. The local species of angels that happened to live there…. I forgot the name I gave them….. were like….. “hey what the fuck you can’t be here you’re demons” and all that racist shit djdjdjsjsj. And eventually they got into fights and then war broke out and Gin and the other six Elders were killed as well as the leader of the angels and ofc tons more of casualties. So the kids Gin had raised to take their place did exactly that. They are grown now and are currently the leaders of the village. They’re good at what they do but they hold resentment for what had happened. So there are two kinds of Necromites, ones that are aligned with Queen and the ones that are not. It’s dangerous to not be aligned with her because you know her petty ass is trying to hunt down the rebel village. She hasn’t been successful just yet though. And that is the history behind that shit in the shortest possible summary. Now more about the species in general is that there are regular ones and there are gifted ones. The gifted ones are born with a huge amount of power and those are generally the ones that are made into Elders. Elders are protectors of those they lead and if you try to mess with their village they will fuck you up. The way villages generally go is that there are 7 Elders to run it and the rest are citizens. They’re generally peaceful unless provoked. If you were to kiss one for some reason, their saliva would taste like your favorite sweet thing, and if you taste it while they are aroused, it turns into an aphrodisiac. Honestly though like… they don’t take advantage of this or anything. You shouldn’t really be kissing them like that unless you like… love them or something anyway. Necromites with tails are somewhat scarce for some reason, no one really knows why. There’s two Necromites that canonly have tails and that’s about it. There are currently none with wings but it isn’t impossible. Any other features are pretty common though. Like clawed hands, multiple limbs, unnatural skin colors, etc. Females generally have notched ears whereas males do not but who gives a fuck about gender tbh I give the men notched ears all the time. And ofc just for the record they also do not give a fuck about gender and there are trans and nonbinary Necromites all the time. They don’t tolerate people who discriminate and the punishment is either exile or death. The person gets to choose. Most choose exile. As said earlier, they look really strange when they aren’t disguised. I don’t have a visual reference of this yet but: lanky bodies, elongated limbs, large jaws and needle like teeth, they generally can only stand on four legs because of their large limbs but standing on two legs is totally possible. Standing upright they’re about 6 feet tall at the shortest in most cases. Some are smaller or larger though. Their eyes are narrow and their pupils are slitted. All in all they have the sentience of humans mentality wise and generally stick together. They’re social but mostly only towards each other. Sometimes outsiders aren’t even allowed near their villages and sometimes they don’t give a heck. It really all depends. They have their own language, but they adapt and pick up ones that are spoken around them often. Uhhhhhhh I can’t really think of anything else right now sO RANT OVER
