Deevil / Demon differences [Crossposted on Rifts]

Unread post by lbeaumanior »

Greetings,

As the title says, what are the differences between Deevils and Demons? On another intellectual property, the namesakes had a difference in philosophical outlook and innate alignments, one group wanted to conquer the universe and were all without exception Aberrant alignment, and the other group wanted to destroy as much as possible and were without exception Diabolical alignment.

What is the difference in Palladium Fantasy / Rifts?

Thanks,

Largely political; they have separate hierarchies and come from different dimensions. The Demon dimension, Hades, is a mirror of Palladium, while Dyval is a plane of forests.

Given Deevils and Demons both have separate "Slayer" options in the main book's standard magic weapon features (pg249) they aren't the same, Deevils are considered a sub-group (or related to) of Supernatural Demons (pg326).
