Lore: Magic.
Magic fills everything in the world, be it living or dead. The natural magic existing in everything is known as neutral magic and is what all other magic derives from. Whenever someone uses magic, they begin by taking magic either from the surrounding area or directly from the magic inside themselves. Following that, the magic is then molded into the appropriate form to suit the casters needs. The most common forms magic tends to be molded into are Elemental, Dark, Dead, Living, Dense and Burst. There exist more types but these six are the most common and most spells fall into this category. Magical forms however tend to be neglected since most casters unconsciously form magic by instinct. The proper utilization of the term is mostly used by Alchemists where knowing the forms helps with their research.
Since magic exists in everything, Everything has a certain resistance to magic. Living objects tend to have a much higher magical resistance due to them constantly stockpiling magic and building up their resistance. Meaning they retain this trait even after death. While magic is a force of instinct, Alchemist constantly work to improve spells efficiency, meaning that most spells require the proper instructions or to have been memorized if they are to be cast at peak efficiency.
Lore: Demons.
Demons used to be what is commonly known as a summoning race. Back when Demons could only be summoned as companions for a limited time, there was a hero who decided to try and keep a demon in the realm of the 10 lands for as long as he could. He managed to hold the Demon in the 10 lands for three years before having to let her go. However, during these three years, much had happened and the pair had found themselves having fallen in love with each other. And when the Demon was sent back to her realm, she yearned for her lover and awaited the day he would summon her again. Somehow, her love for him managed to reach between the realms and let her summon herself to his side. (See the lore on Summoning for more details as well as a proper explanation.)
In the end, they had children and their children could remain in the 10 lands without being summoned due to them being born there. And thus the species of Demons became native to the ten lands.
There exist many different types of Demons and their powers wary greatly. Common traits to be found in Demons are horns, wings tails and red or black skin of some kind. Some Demons also have the ability to change their appearance.

Greater Demons are Demons with powers equal to those of old Wizards and Warriors. Greater Demons are the result of regular Demons having cultivated and improved their own powers under a long time.
Royal Demon.
Royal Demons are much like regular Demons but have two abilities that sets them apart from the rest. Their ability to make others follow their every command by looking them in the eyes and their unusual longevity that can almost rival the one natural to Elves.
