Demons vary in types and origins. I constantly brought up how types of Demons like Armanites were a biological species that was altered by the Abyss and became Demons, in much the same way that Githzerai are a biological species and not some mockery of a sentient species just because they live...

They can't have regional languages in the core books, it's too campaign specific, and they've rarely mattered in game since everyone is assumed to speak "Common" for some reason. No universal translator or things like translator microbes exist either even if they probably should exist especially...

I'm always interested in what these other sun obscuring objects are, leave things open to further story hooks, if such an act isn't the end of a campaign. I guess it could even temporarily planeshift something from another solar system to obscure the sun. With the eclipse being the wish of a...

It should also be mentioned that it's a NPC that's causing an eclipse, and they're the type who probably don't care about any consequences of the Wish that don't affect them. So some of the things like "flaws in the ritual" are certainly things that PCs could exploit in stopping them.

Definitely one of the first things I thought of in how the intentions of a Wish might be implemented.

One of my thoughts is that the wish could just transport everyone in a certain area to Shadowfell where there's a facsimile of the world with the moon permanently blocking the sun.

The rubber band snapping back could be the moon moving back to it's original course after spending an hour or so in it's position for an eclipse.

Yes, initially where the thought came from.

There are many types of Demons, at least 20 different types probably more than 30 different types. They come from many disparate origins too, some of them are spiritual expressions of chaos and evil, others are results of the corruption on living beings by the Abyss or powerful demons, or just...

Something needs to be done on an eclipse, some the powerful archmage wishes for there to be an eclipse. They were cautious enough to mention it should happen almost immediately, so that the wish wouldn't transport them to a time when there was or will be an eclipse. Could their wish cause a...

Armanites and Goristoi have explicit references about being able to breed with others of their kind, and that's not including other 2e sources about Tanar'ri Demons in general. I'd still use the 2e sources especially if 5e is generally silent on an issue due to lack of elaboration. 3e sort of...

Remember that Two-Handed Swords did 3d6 damage to large creatures, somehow they became more vulnerable to such weapons.

Half of all Armanites are born from Armanite parents, as they were more or less a species similar to Centaurs, Bariuars or Wemics but are now native to the Abyss. They are explicitly stated as having genders, often segregate themselves into herds based on gender, and tend to mate after victories...

Planescape on the subject of Demons breeding says it's possible, and typically the child is the same rank as the parents or in between with they aren't. It also says that there's a breeding program of Goristos which makes sense as they're more Demon War Beasts, and less like Demon people. And...

I forgot about those, even though Cambions and Succubi have changed a bunch.

Faces of Evil definitely says they can breed. Planescape for sure, but even Greyhawk says that Demons can breed at least with non-Demons as Iuz is the son of Graz'zt and Iggwilv.

Demons do breed. There's multiple ways to make a Demon, whether it be as a petitioner (a soul in the afterlife) which could be as a Mane or Larva initially, through breeding, through being spontaneously spawned by the Abyss itself or through corruption.

Graz'zt is incapable of giving High Fives. But a High Six hasn't gone too well given that most don't have six fingers like Graz'zt does.

So one of the promotional art pieces show 5 characters, I'm guessing this is supposed to be the Artificer subclasses (though not necessarily the pictures for the featured subclass art, as it lacks D&D species diversity given that 4 out of 5 of them look Human). I think it's quite clear which...

Interestingly enough Strixhaven doesn't have campaign prereqs for it's Strixhaven Initiate feats either, but I'd assume one would need to be a student to get one, which would most likely be in those school backgrounds. As Strixhaven was perhaps the second instance of the 2024 type backgrounds...
