They were called devils in A Paladin in Hell and Guide to Hell, too. The first use of the word "demon" after WotC bought the company was in Tales From the Infinite Staircase, and the word was used frequently in Return of the Eight shortly thereafter. The changes in the 3e Manual of the Planes...

Frozen and canned vegetable products.

True enough. They're more interesting than the endless parade of silver and gold animals you get with the celestial template.

There are a few other, pretty boring, celestial creatures in In the Cage: A Guide to Sigil. The sand cow is a cross between a camel and a bull native to Arcadia (page 112). They're pure white, and as they walk they whistle. The spittle boar is an amiable piglike creature from the Beastlands. The...

Here's an obscure one I had forgotten about, the monitor from MC9 (Spelljammer Appendix). "Monitors manifest in two different ways. In a crystal sphere or on the Outer Planes, they appear as gold-skinned, winged centaurs. Their eyes and hair blaze as if made of red flames. In the phlogistion...

Frogs are symbols of Chaos (and have been since ancient Egyptian times) because of the radical way they transform during their lives, turning from fishlike creatures into beings that are almost humanoid (in the sense that they have four limbs and no tail). Another reason they're associated with...

Most of the homilies of St. Cuthbert can also be found on this useful page.

Here's a picture from White Dwarf #31. Technically, this is a dendridi, or root-gnome.

You've forgotten to list Dragon magazine #342 - "Core Beliefs: Olidammara" as a source.

If she worships a version of the Chinese pantheon similar to the AD&D one, then the god of vengeance is Lei Kung, the Duke of Thunder, and he's lawful evil. I know that the society here is more Japanese, but what we've seen of their gods looks more Chinese to me.

I was chatting with one of the designers (Gary Holian) on IRC last night, and he confirmed that he had indeed mixed some Polynesian elements in with the Aztec ones and whatever else suited his fancy. The adventure path isn't meant to represent any single real-world culture or be a straight-up...

No, it's clear he was serving Zariel at the time of his coup. If he ever served Dispater, it was before that. I'm thinking he got transferred at some point - perhaps he turned traitor on Dispater during the Reckoning, when Dispater and Zariel were on opposite sides. Remember that the Reckoning...

Add Martinet, who was a pit fiend in the 1e MM2 but promoted to unique status in Guide to Hell and Book of Vile Darkness. Also add Selm, Prince of Possessors, from Dragon #42. He's in Asmodeus' court. He's served by six lesser nobles - Thyle, Cykes, Tyd, Nausyyd, Dyclex, and Hyrkovan - but they...

Here's another list of devilish names.

Kobolds are dragonblooded too, as it happens.

If we must limit the pool, what if we limit it to "currently in print" settings, arbitrarily discounting PDFs or free websites? Sorry PDF sellers, but there is no room for you! Unless there is, in which case welcome PDF sellers! Have a seat! Endless "(insert TSR/WotC setting) sucks!" posts...

Of course you have to include d20 settings! Is this or is this not EN World? 'Sides, it's much more interesting that way.

Greyhawk City has a lot of potential, but even the most hard-core fans have to admit that the City of Greyhawk boxed set and The Adventure Begins were sub-par products (neither of them without considerable merit, of course, but not what they should have been). Even Maldin's map doesn't fix some...

You spelled "Roykyn" wrong (it's erroneously spelled "Roykin" in the PDF). Also, the newest version of the LG_Deities PDF - http://www.wizards.com/rpga/downloads/LG_Deities.zip - is much more complete and useful than the version cited in the gods_list document...

There are a few other places like that - it's physically impossible to raise a weapon in anger in both Valorhome (the realm of Kuan-ti in Elysium) and in Portent in Gehenna. But as they're located respectively on the lower and upper planes, they lack Sigil's status as a true neutral ground...
