The layers of the abyss are not *actual* layers stacked on top of each other. They are just numbered by the order in which people found out about them.
*Demon Lord:* "MORTAL! GIMME YOUR SOUL!" *Me, le Old One Warlock:* "Nope. Try to take it by force and my man Hastur will-" *Demon Lord:* "We have Quasits. You can have a castle full of them as pets." *Me, le Demon Lord's Future Employee of the Month:* "DEAL!"
The difference between devils and demons based on what you do if you find them: Devils - First, if you have the luxury, try to find out why that devil is there and what are it's intentions wich may prove difficult (devils can be surprisingly diverse and layerd individuals), it's probably up to no good but that does'nt mean that it's doing something so evil you whould have to intervine, if you have to aproach it remember that devils have the minds of businessman and because of that it will probably try to make you do something useful to it before they start becoming agressive, at this point some negociating skills or knowladge of a legal sistem might help you since they will most likely try to strike a deal with you and even though they are still evil creatures, they are surprisingly okay with letting you go if you manage to out smart them on the terns of the deal (something that is not in any way easy, but it's possible), overall, trying to kill the devil should be one of the last things you should try to do since it will comeback sonner or latter, and it will be VERY pissed with you Demons - kill it, KILL IT HARD, there is no such thing as overkilling a demon, there is just making sure it's gonne, if you cant kill it them run far away, when you think you have ran enough, run a little bit more to be shoure, if you cant run then start praying for your death to be painless (it wont) and that if it try's to rape you (wich it probably will) that at the very least it will try to be gentle (it wont)
Demons - put one as the magical engine to that god machine you have been building to run an advanced civilization for a few centuries. No way that could go wrong at all.
@@LooneyNuke No, it's more like he'll steal everyone's girlfriends or boyfriends...or husbands, or wifes, gay, straight, trans, bi...he's not very picky as long as you're sexy looking to him.
Also another interesting tid bit is Jubilex and Zuggtomoy are on the same lair of the Abyss, so they hate each other since they are always fighting over turf. (I been running Out of The Abyss and I think that's right)
@@Fallenmonkd20 Definitely, anything would be nice. It's a lot of story that I'm sure the party will never experience. Anything you wish you did or did differently?
You're correct. The two heads, Aameul and Hethradiah, hate each other with a psychotic passion and long for the day they can kill the other and be solely in control.
My theory on how layers get added to the Abyss is that when a demon infection becomes so great that the Gods just cut the area out of existence and hurl it onto the pile and just restore the area to how it used to be before, minus any of the idiots that decided to invite the demons into the Material Plane. Meanwhile they also wipe everyones memory that the area had a demon infection.
Infinite layers is a really stupid concept for reasons I don’t even have to describe, so yeah. Kind of similar to what happened to Arcadia’s third layer, actually, and how it sank into mechanus.
1:37 idk how this is actually handled in D&D but if I ever get to DM, the rule I'd use if that if you have x heads, your intelligence is multiplied by x but your wisdom is divided by x
Honestly, this is very helpful and informative. I never really read all of the lore in the dnd books, I just learn the specific lore to the campaign I currently play.
The TH-cam subtitles call Thargdyjgdgu (guy who made Demons) Thor and I'd just like to say it's pretty funny thinking of Thor jizzing on a plane of existence to make hell creatures
Think of fiends like this: Demons give no fucks and will do whatever. Devils stick to agreements, but they wanna see how badly they can fuck you over without actually breaking the agreement. Yugoloths will do whatever as long as you pay them. Pay them what? That depends on the yugoloth. Oh, and they'll absolutely fuck you if somebody pays them more to do it.

Demons - put one as the magical engine to that god machine you have been building to run an advanced civilization for a few centuries. No way that could go wrong at all.
The last part though..
I was unaware I was playing a D&D: Corruption of Champions module.
The real difference: When you're slaying devils play knee deep in the dead
When you're slaying demons play BFG division.
Juiblex is my kind of guy, I would gladly sacrifice him thousands of people for some cute slime girls :D
Or you can just use command repeatedly
