Origin
- See Creation myth
In earliest time, when the big something created the first gods, the idea of good and evil developed because all the individual beings became jealous of each other and not all were ready to make compromises. When the gods noticed, that their quarries threatened the balance of the world, they seperated their dark sides. What they didn't know, was that these parts of their personality were so strong that all the evil thoughts became new, own beeings. The gods tried to become perfect but the price was the creation of a new group of immortal beeings. The demongods.
After the gods had created the first races, also the demongods wanted to rule over own species. But they didn't accepted the rules of the god's sphere and were banished very soon. On Legonia a war began between gods and demongods, between godly creations and demons. While the epic battle the world Legonia was split into several continents and giant floods created new oceans. After, the demongods lost and was prisoned in an own sphere, which is locked behind a demon portal. Legends assume it somewhere in Dragonia Vulcania. The followers of the demongods are mostly prisoned in different spheres or at special places on Legonia. But some were able to escape and are searching for followers. Most known are the Blood Wraith and many black mages. The only intelligent races who survived on the god's side were the white elves and the first dwarves, but noone of them remembered the epic war.
The endless war
The demongods always try to escape their prisons by manipulating mortal beeings. Their goal is to conquer the living world back, to destroy the races created by the gods and start their own rulement in a new world. 1648 o.C. in theBattle at the Demon Portal they nearly succeeded to break the demon portal with help of the black mage and his black army but finally failed. Until today, demon whorshipping conspiracies are one of the biggest menaces for legonian cultures, though not many know about them.
Known Demongods
Forgotten in past, most facts about demon names, origins and organization is unknown. A few high mages assume a first evil god made of the bad sides of the big something itself as leader of all demongods. But it's highly possible that they are so evil that alliances wouldn't hold for long and betrayal between them is a daily business.

The first evil
After the big something, so legends tell, lost its bad sides, good and evil was created. The first evil is mentioned as lord of all demongods. Nobody really whorship it directly and it's not allowed under demonologists to give it an image. Also the worst badguys are fearing it and prefer to deal with lower demons. It's banished to a sphere nobody else than the big something know, but parts of his personality are still alive on Legonia, in every living body a little bit.
Ifrit
Ifrit is sometimes mentioned as demongod, sometimes as demon and in some stories just an evil Elemental whorshipping demongods. In the war between gods and demongods Ifrit was beatened by Okeanos and prisoned deep into the ocean.

Magmaros
Also known as "The golden" and "The hell's smithy". A god made by fire and gold. He leads vulcans, earthquakes and other threats of the deep surface of Legonia's worldcrust, so he's a natural opponent of Onyxo and feared by most dwarves. In long forgotten demon temples he's sometimes shown as golden statue with a rock-pick or a hammer. This is based in old legends, describing his prison deep under Legonia as hot lakeland of molten gold.
Magmaros is also known as father of all Imps. While his banishment in the golden cage, so it's told, Magmaros is forging the unholy hell sword "".
Nekron
Nekron also known as "The black bonemaster" or "Lord of the undead" is the master of necromancy and so all undead and necromancers are his followers in some way. Because his intention is to conquer the death realm he's seen as opponent of Thorun. Rare statues of Nekron are very similiar to Thorun's but instead white he's shown as black skelleton body, sometimes with and sometimes without beard.
Orphelia
She's goddess of evil desires, allurement, betrayal and sexual sado-masochism. As female demongod people assume her made by the evil side of Venari but because women are perfect in general in amazon mythology, their Vendra hadn't an evil side. The amazones don't know Orphelia as demongod. In Morica a rumour tells, that the house of Ophidea was corrupted by a demonic cult worshipping Orphelia.
Rag'nar'uhl
Destroyer of hope, lord of desperation, the eternal crying and master of chaos. Rag'ar'uhl is one of the more powerful demongods but less known outside the Kalifate Hatrapedi. Like the first evil, he would never act directly against any lifeform but manipulate the world when possible to spread desperation, hate and chaos. The Insaani believe that it was mainly Rag'nar'uhl, who was responsible for the end of the old empire. His opponent is Nepht'uhl.
Sado
Opponent of Saard. Demongod of pain, punishment and torture.
