Authors Note: This is my first Doom Fanfiction, so don't judge. This is a list and definition of the many creatures found in Doom's version of Hell. It will be presented in a fashion similar to a wildlife documentary. Due to the nature of this, I will be personally adding creatures that are not found in the Doom games. This is to make the establishment of an ecosystem easier. This will also mean that nonexistence terms and statements will be said, and this should not be considered cannon. Also, if the mention of blood, gore, and the sexual behaviors of demons makes you uncomfortable, don't read this. Finally, the creatures will be both created by me, and taken from Doom 2016. Inspiration is also taken from other Doom games, primarily Doom 3. Also, UAC demons such as the Cyberdemon, Revenant, and Spectra will not be shown due to them not being naturally native to Hell. Please enjoy.

FILE 1: -WILDLIFE-

Hell, is far different than we imagined. It's not so much a random place, as it is a plane of existence. Rather hard to describe. Most surprisingly, was the presence of an existing, and functioning ecosystem. Animals, or more accurately, wild demons, lived on the plains, separated from the cities and temples constructed by the higher demons.

This ecosystem is built on a food chain, but it is far different than ours. It consists of creatures who eat flesh, Carnivores. Creatures who feed on blood, Sanguivore. And creatures that feed on both, or gore, Gorenavores.

File 1A: -Sanguivore-

At the bottom of the food chain are Sanguivores. These demons are some of the closest things within Hell to herbivores, preferring to feed on the vast amounts of blood found within the environments of Hell. They can be found in any environment except the cities. However, some can be found within arenas, and some are even used within the Legion, although most are ignored.

-Skitters-

Skitters are small, lizard like demons. With a maximum length of about 12in., Skitters are the smallest demon that we have found in Hell. Possessing two, beady yellow eyes, and a leathery red hide, skitters can be argued to be the cutest of all demons. Commonly found skittering around the Crimson Flows, across the Burning Plains, and over the Broken Hills, they are a wide spread demon. They use a long tube in place of a mouth to sip up flowing, or pooled blood. Skitters do have separate genders, but it is impossible to tell the difference until you flip them over and look. They breed continuously, laying large amount of eggs, which they place in the soft soil. Though small, skitter eggs are something of a delicacy, and it is not usually to find other demons, even young Imps on occasion, feasting on the rich eggs. Despite the constant raiding of nests, and the constant death at the hands of other demons, the Skitter population is still very high due to their breeding. First expeditions into Hell and sightings of these small demons led to the spread of rumors that Skitters were dangerous. That they'd latch onto a man and suck him dry in seconds. Thankfully, this is not true. Skitters lack the strength to pierce even demon skin, therefore they don't have the strength to pierce human skin. A small comfort, because frankly the find the idea of small lizard demons latching onto you and sucking you dry is quite terrifying. Skitters have no use to Demon Lords, and are regarded as little more than pests, equal to earth rats.

-Leapers-

The Leaper is a strange, almost dear like demon with a single large yellow eye, large ornamental horns, and a faded red scaled hide, similar to the Pinky. It stands at around 4ft. at the shoulders, with its horns adding an additional 2ft. Despite its relatively fierce look, the Leaper is very skittish, and often bolts at the first hint of a disturbance. This is understandable, considering the large number of dangerous predators found in Hell. This has made studying them more difficult. The frustration was so severe, that chief scientist Dr. Olivia Pierce gave up on them, finding it far easier to study the larger, more interesting demons. We do not know about the Leapers breeding habits, but due to its large numbers, and its constant predation, it must breed regularly, and constantly. Gender among Leapers can be determined by the horns, like earth deer. Horns means its male; lack of horns means female. If they rut like deer, or if males lose their horns is unknown. The Leapers live just about anywhere, from the Burning Plains and Stone Maze, to the Titan Realm and Pits of Despair. They use their long, syphon like mouths to sip up any standing blood that they can find. When blood is hard to find, they will use a small spike like tooth at the end of their mouths to pierce through the soil and tap into the flows of blood commonly found beneath the soil of Hell. As we've said before, Leapers are a very common food item, and are one of the most eaten creatures in Hell. Their carcasses can be found littering the ground, and chewed bones have been retrieved many times. Leapers, in terms of combat, are completely useless for Demon Lords, however, their flesh is delicious, and the Lords will order large amounts slaughtered to fill their stomachs. An interesting note, when ground up, Leaper bones can be used as a very powerful male stimulant, and the presence of Imp tooth marks on shattered bones means that they take advantage of this. Many scientists say that the UAC should capitalize on this to increase profits, but Dr. Hayden has turned it down multiple times, claiming it to be a waste of valuable resources.

-Stilt Walkers-

Stilt Walkers are the largest Sanguivores found within Hell. Found only in the vast Titan Realm, these demons could be called titans themselves. Standing at a colossal 25ft. tall at the shoulders, their long, yet thick, necks add an additional 8ft., bringing them on average to 33ft. tall. This makes them the largest of the feral demons, and even larger than most of the civilized demons. They also are usually around 30ft. in length, but most of this is taken up by their long legs. They possess, short, yet robust tails in order to maintain balance, along with thick, barrel like bodies. As one might guess from their names, Stilt Walkers have long, thin legs that end in a single point, like a stilt. Their large bodies are heavily muscled, and despite their four spindly legs, the body is held up with great ease. This is achieved by the wide spacing of the four legs, along with the Stilt Walkers method of movement. Like earth sauropods, they always keep at least three of their legs on the ground at all times in order to remain standing. Stilt Walkers possess a large, single yellow eye, which they use to gaze across the mighty Titan Realm. To feed, Stilt Walkers have long, drill like syphons, which they use to bore holes through the colossal bones of the Titan realm, and tap into the blood supplies that lie within. No sexual dimorphism is found in Stilt Walkers at all, with males and females looking exactly the same. Stilt Walker mating is simple. Males will sing to attract females, who pick the males based on their song, which reflex's their size and strength. The two will then mate. Females will then lay around 5 eggs, which she will hide among the smaller bones of the Realm. After 5 months, the eggs hatch. The young will wander in small groups, drilling into smaller bones or slurping up puddles of blood. In 6 months, the Stilt Walker is fully grown, and will then set out on its own to feed. While young and sick Stilt Walkers are preyed upon by Pinkies and Blood Demons, adults have little to fear due to their sheer size. However, on rare occasions, large packs of Cacodemons will attack a lone Stilt Walker, often bringing it down after days of fighting. These occurrences are rare however, and have only been documented once. As such, adult Stilt Walkers have nothing to fear, and offer nothing to the Demon Lords. However, on occasion, their massive bones will be used as decoration for temples and buildings.

-Striders-

Standing at 15ft. in height, Striders use their long legs to walk across the surface of the vast bloody pools found within the Pits of Despair. Striders have two small red eyes, and a very long siphon, which they use to slurp up the blood that it walks on without so much as lowering their heads. Striders have four, long thing legs, and a tall neck, both of these contributing to their height. The body of the Strider is relatively small, and is covered in a smooth, leather brown hide, which is actually quite soft when compared to the skin of other demons, such as Leapers and Pinkies. However, this skin also has a permanent red stain on it, due to the blood from where they reside. Striders spend their entire lives on the blood pools, feeding, breeding and sleeping without ever touching dry land. Walking on the blood is achieved by its wide, splayed feet. While this seems like an impressive feat, it's actually easier then walking on water, due to the greater thickness of blood. Striders do not possess sexually dimorphism, and thus are impossible to determine the gender unless you spot them breeding. Young are born live, but underdeveloped, lacking the strength to stand. Because of this, when born, they drop straight into the blood. Young striders have their legs locked together, which allows them to swim. Also, at birth, the syphon is far more flexible, allowing it to be bent upwards like a trunk to be used as a snorkel. After birth, the young spend around 2 months swimming behind their mother, absorbing nutrients directly into their bodies from the blood. Once their bodies have developed enough, their flexible syphon will calcify, resulting in them locking in a straight, downward positon, forcing the young Strider to leave the blood. Eventually, the young Strider will break the surface, and stand up on it, using their now developed legs and feet to stand, and its vertical syphon to feed. At this point, they will leave their mothers side, and go out across the pools on their own. Striders breed rarely, but a low level of predation allows them to remain populated. Only a very bold Cacodemon would attempt to eat a young or weak Strider, and even then, it is difficult. Taking a fully grown and healthy Strider is close to impossible, and only a Lurker might be able to kill one. Striders have no use to Demon Lords, and thus are completely ignored.

-Yapperdemon-

Drifting through the skies, Yapperdemons are aerial Sanguivores who are distantly related to Cacodemons. However, unlike the vicious Cacodemons, Yappers are passive, exclusively feeding of blood falls flowing within the Broken Hills and lower levels of the Great Steppe and never bothering demons or humans alike. Unlike Cacodemons, with their distinct round shape, Yapperdemons are more egg shape, and have a tail trailing behind them. Also, instead of shrunken limbs, like the Caco, Yappers of four tentacles which dangle under the body. These tentacles, along with the tail and air bladders in the back, are what allows the Yapperdemon to fly. They also possess a long, thinner tentacle which they use as a syphon for feeding. They use this syphon by dipping it into the rivers of blood, or even the blood falls, and slurping it up. Male and female Yappers are identical, with no discernable features between the genders. Mating takes place in the air. Like their cousins, the female reproduction organs are located higher up on the body, around lower back, or in the Yappers case, above the tail. This allows the male to more easily breed with her, allowing him to sit on her back instead of one of them hanging upside down. The male will also use his tentacles to grip the female, similarly to how the Caco uses its small arms. After mating, the female will float close to the ground on the cliffs, and deposit their eggs. These "nest" are located high up, far out of the reach of most predators. Only Cacodemons and the occasional Haggle Demon will find them and eat them. Once they hatch, the mother will fly back and forth, collecting blood for the whelps which she feeds to them directly. The whelps will use their developed tentacles to crawl across the cliff top until their air sacs are mature enough to inflate and carry their weight. Unfortunately, this leads to many whelps wondering, and eventually falling off the edge of the cliffs to their deaths. After around 4 months, the whelps will be large and strong enough inflate their sacs and take to the skies, at which the mother will then depart from them, and return to a solitary life. Yapperdemons are the preferred, and favorite food of the Cacodemon, and they are preyed on heavily by their cousins. Despite this, their numbers are high due to their large number of eggs and quick development. Yappers have no use to Demon Lords, and are thus ignored and unused. However, and extract from the Yapperdemon has proven to be an incredibly effective painkiller, and flesh repairer. After this discover, Dr. Samuel Haydon invested thousands into recreating its effects artificially. It was the basis for the now standard issue Haydon Med-gel used by UAC security and military personal.

-Gorenavores-

Now to the Gorenavores. The only known Gorenavores are the sickly Scrappers, and the unique Blood Demons, making them the smallest of the feral demon classes.

-Scrappers-

Scrappers are average sized demons, standing about 6 ft. tall. However, this height is not measure at their shoulders, but at the horrid curve located in their backs. Their appearance is akin to sickly and horribly thin horse, with skin stretched over the bones and an apparent lack of muscle tissue, and an ugly humped back, formed from the bend spine. The head is horse like, but lacks ears, and has a much different mouth. Scrappers mouths can open incredibly wide, reveling their large, flat, yet bladed teeth. These teeth are used to scrape gore up from the ground, as well as take in large quantities of blood. In the back of their mouths are large grinding teeth they use to mash the gore up, as well as crush any small bones they may swallow. However, compared to other demons, Scrappers have a pitifully weak bite force, which explains why they feed exclusively on gore. This, paired with their slow and sluggish nature, makes them unwanted by higher demons for combat. The breeding nature of Scrappers is simple. Males and females, completely undisguisable from each other, will mate when the time suits them. They appear to have no set breeding period, nor do they seem to enjoy it. It's simply done to replace older Scrappers. Scrappers lay a single thin egg, which they hide among the rotting flesh of the Rotting Plains. While this means that no other creature will consume them, it is still possible for another Scrapper to consume it, which they will do on occasion. While this seemingly lazy take on life seems like a disadvantage, it works for the Scrapper, and for one major reason. Nothing eats them. They possess almost no meat, and what little they do have is stringy, rots horrible fast, and smells terrible, even by Hell's standards, which is saying something. This allows them to thrive on this lazy behavior. And since their food is constant, and will never disappear or run, they have no need to be fast.

-Blood Demons-

With an appearance, and behavior, similar to a great ape, Blood Demons are quite bizarre when compared to other creatures of Hell. If they ever stood up, they'd be around 8ft. tall at the shoulders. As it is, being semi-bipedal, they rarely stand upright, preferring a quadrupedal walking stance. Blood Demons also possess thick armor like hides, similar to the Prowler Demon. However, unlike Prowlers, Blood Demons are red in coloration, similar to the armor of the Pinky demon. Also, like the Prowler, Blood Demons possess three green eyes. However, Blood Demon eyes are arranged more in the traditional way, two in normal position, one in-between, compared to the bizarre Prowler's arrangement. On the back of their heads, both male and female Blood Demons have black, backward curved horns, which are used for display. The mouth of a Blood Demon is also very unique. Large teeth line the outside of the bottom jaw, jutting up to form a large underbite. Sharp teeth also lie within the mouth itself, allowing the Blood Demon to easily shred large amounts of flesh and gore with ease. However, unlike the Scrapper, Blood Demons will also hunt and eat living demons, making them the closest thing to an omnivore in Hell. In order to bring down larger prey, Blood Demons hunt in packs. They are often around 3 to 5 demons strong, and are quite formidable, using their large teeth and sharp, blade like claws to bring down prey. Indeed, a pack of Blood Demons is threatening enough to kill a Hell Knight, making them quite dangerous to almost anything in Hell. Many an expedition into the wilds of Hell have resulted in catastrophic lose at the hands of Blood Demons. The name Blood Demon also comes from their frequent habit of draining their victims of blood before devouring their flesh. They do this by using their large bottom jaws to slash open the throat, allowing them to lap up the flowing blood with their large tongues. Similar to the great apes of which they resemble, the family nature and sexual practices of Blood Demons resemble these earth counterparts. Female Blood Demons can be identified by their slimmer builds, their lighter colors, and the blood sacs on their chest, which resemble breasts. Males on the other hand are larger, more muscular, and have more jagged hides. They also lack the blood sacs which females. These sacs are in fact one of the factors behind their name. Due to their pack mentality, Blood Demons are also social, living together with their packs. These packs almost always consist of an Alpha male, females, and their young. Lone, bachelor Blood Demons wonder across the plains, waiting for mating session when they can attempt to take control of a pack. Females come into heat around three times a year, and last around 3 weeks. During this time, the Alpha male will mate with all the females, unless challenge by a roaming male. If a bachelor challenges the Alpha, and isn't scared off by the Alpha's threat display, (which is a loud chest beating similar to gorillas, not very surprising. However, it is quite humorous to watch) the males will engage in a wrestling match to test their strength. These wrestling matches are fierce, and often result in horrific injuries such as gouged eyes, slashed stomachs, and limbs being torn off. Despite this, the fights rarely end in death, and due to the extremely rapid healing of demons, the loser is usually fully recovered in less than a week, allowing time to try again. Once one of the opponents is downed, they victor will drive them off, and then proceed to mate with the females. Unlike most feral demons, Blood Demons have been known to engage in intercourse solely for pleasure, as well as reproduction. Usually one demon whelp is born at a time. This whelp will then spend 4 months, hanging upside down from the female's chest, suckling the blood from her blood sacs, in a very similar way to mammals feeding their young milk. However, unlike mammal's milk, which his produced exclusively from the mother, the blood that the whelps drink is not completely the mothers, but a collection of the blood she drinks mixed with her own to stabilize it. After the 4 months is up, the whelp will be large enough to walk on its own, and will be taught by the adults how to feed itself. This rather unusual method of child birth for demons is the key to their success. As far as we know, Blood Demons are they only demons to possess blood sacs, making it quite the adaptation. They are also the only demons to possess such a family structure. Dr. Hayden predicts that in a few thousand years, Blood Demons might be intelligent enough to join the higher demons within their society. And, on the notion of their interactions with higher demons, most usually ignore, or avoid them out of fear, depending on the type. However, certain Demon Lords have been known to use Blood Demons in fighting arenas, and even in invasions, using their pack mentality as a unique fighting style. However, it is rare, and UAC documentation of such events in minimal.

-Carnivores-

Last, but most certainly not least, are the carnivores. Carnivore contain the largest amount of feral demons, and also contain the "civilized" demons. However, in this file, we will be talking solely about the carnivorous feral demons.

-Pinky-

The most well-known, and possibly the most dangerous feral demon, is the Pinky. Unusual as the name is, it has reason. Along with the fact that they have no name within Hell itself, (this can be said about most of the feral demons, but since the Pinky is used outside Hell, it's an exception) they also possess strikingly pink flesh, something that would lead most onlookers to laugh. However, this laughter vanishes once they see the rest of the demon. Pinkies are large, standing at around 7ft. at the back, and resemble large bipedal boars. Their huge heads are dominated by an enormous mouth, filled with large, yellow, fang like teeth, and are topped with two small, beady red eyes. Their jaws are large enough to swallow an adult human male without opening to their full width. Small yellow, downward curved horns lie behind the eyes. On the forehead, Pinkies possess a large domed plate, which is hardened and used as a battering ram for their primary attack method. They possess two, relatively short yet robust arms, equipped with short fused claws, and two incredibly thick and powerful legs, which end in hooves. The Pinkies back, arms and shoulders are covered in plates, similar to the head, providing it with impressive protection. However, they lack these plates on their tails and flanks, making them vulnerable from the side. Their hunting methods are straightforward and brutal. Upon seeing a potential prey item, they will relentlessly chase after it, slamming their thick skulls into them in hopes of cracking bones and drawing blood. They will then use their massive jaws to crush and rip at the head and chest of their victims, killing them quickly. Pinkies usually hunt alone, and can be found in a wide range, but mostly stick to the Burning Plains and Titan Realm. Their preferred food seems to be Leapers, and, on occasion, a young Mancubus or Imp, if they can catch them. There is no distinction between a male and female Pinky. Despite this, their mating methods are well documented. Males will participate in rutting contests, similar to earth mountain goats and musk ox. However, Pinky head butting is far more vicious, and the multiple horns and spikes often lead to blood being drawn. The winner of these contests can then breed with the observing female. Not surprisingly, Pinkies are very aggressive breeders. Males will claw at the back of the females during mating, and will sometimes even bite her. Female, on the other hand, will often kick and thrash their short tails at the male, which can be dangerous. One documentation recorded the females hooked tail snagging the males member and tearing it off. The female preceded to eat it while the whimpering male retreated. After mating, the female will use her short arms and large mouth to dig a hole in the earth. She will then lay between 6 and 12 eggs. After a 3-month incubation, the piglets (piglets was determined an appropriate name due to the swine like nature of Pinkies) will then stay in their groups, scavenging whatever they can. When they reach about a year old, they will separate, becoming solo hunters. Pinky flesh is considered a delicacy in Hell, and many cooked and gnawed corpses have been found. Demon Lords have been known to place high rewards for the successful capture of a prime specimen for their sacrificial feasts. As well as being eaten, Pinkies are a favorite of Demon Lords for area fights and for military purposes. With an almost unrivaled brutality towards all living things, Pinkies are a stable in any Hell Army. However, as wild animals, they are treated as such, and it's not unusual for other demons to eat the corpses, or even outright kill the Pinkies just so they can eat them. Unfortunately for them, Pinkies greatly enjoy doing the same to their handlers.

-Lurker-

Lurkers are large, crocodile like demons fond lounging about in the Crimson Flows as well as the Pits of Despair. Lurkers are around 12ft. in length, and can only lift themselves 3ft. off the ground, similar to earth crocodilians. However, unlike crocodilians, Lurkers have only two legs, and have four beady red eyes. A row of short webbed horns run down their backs, and spikes jut out from behind the head. These spikes are used to protect themselves from predators. Lurkers also possess large ganged jaws, which greatly resemble the jaws of prehistoric Kaprosuchus, but with horns in the back of the head. Similar to crocs, Lurkers will hide along the river's edge, waiting for prey to walk near. Once it does, they thrust themselves forward, grabbing it with their powerful jaws, and crushing it. Their strength allows them to bring down anything they encounter. However, while they could most likely take a Strider, it is unknown if they do. Mating is like crocodiles, with the males calling to the females with a deep rumble. After mating, the female will lay eggs in the dirt, and guard them until they hatch. After they do however, she will leave them to fend for themselves. While lesser demons do fear them, most do not, and the Demon Lords consider Lurkers to be a waste of resources, and therefore never use them for arena or military practice. However, rumors are spreading that some are used for torture purpose, but this cannot be accurately confirmed or denied.

-Haggle Demons-

Haggle Demons are small, cliff dwelling demons found in the Broken Hills and Titan Realm. They somewhat resemble lemurs or monkeys; however, these similarities lie solely in their climbing nature, nothing more. Possessing two small orange eyes, the most distinctive feature of the Haggle Demon is its mouths, which have two jaw like mandibles instead of a bottom jaw. This distinction gives them a furious look and bite. They also possess incredibly long arms, tipped with curved hook like claws, and long tails, ending in a blade like spike. These, paired with their incredible agility, allows them to clamber up and down cliff faces, and exposed bones, with ease. Their bodies possess a somewhat skeletal look, but this is deceiving, for they are heavily muscled While hunting, Haggle Demons will drop down on top of their prey, ripping it to shreds with their teeth, claws, and tail, before messily devouring it. Haggle Demons have slight sexual dimorphism. Females are slimmer, and possess wider hips for child bearing. Also, while males possess large and jagged mandibles, females are slimmer, and used more like a surgical scapula then the males barbed knives. Females come into heat every 3 months. Males will scream at each other over mating rights, and the winner claims the female. Like some earth monkeys, Haggle Demons have been known to participate in intercourse solely for pleasure, and are one of the few feral demons to do so. Haggle Demons usually only have one whelp at a time, with the female protecting and feeding it scraps of flesh over the course of 2 months. During this time, the youngster will watch its mother, observing how to climb. Once it reaches maturity, it will climb on its own. Usually social, Haggle Demons can be found both solo, as well as in groups as large as twenty individuals. While not usually used for combat, Demon Lords have been known to use Haggle Demons on occasion. In human facilities, they can move through wires and piping with unnatural ease, and when altered by Summoners to throw fireballs, they can be truly dangerous.

-Wraith-

Wraiths are medium sized, ambush demons. Standing at about 5ft. high, and 6ft. long, the build of Wraiths is rather stumpy, focusing on compacted power. Possessing two small red eyes, smooth black skin, webbed arms that resemble short wings, and strong legs made for jumping, Wraiths are unusual demons. This is further proven by their reclusive nature, amplified by their hunting method. Using their strong limbs to bury themselves, they will lie in wait under the Burning Plains for weeks at a time, waiting for prey to come close. Once it does, they will leap out of the ground and land on its back, using its strong arms to hold it down while their vice like jaws rip it apart. It's a quick and violent death. The Wraith will then proceed to eat every scrap of flesh off the carcass, leaving behind only bone. Males and females no difference in appearance, aside from males being blackish in color while females have a grayer color. They are both the same size. The breeding methods of Wraiths is completely unknown, as is their method of raising young. While not commonly used by Demon Lords for the military, their a few documented cases where Wraiths were used. During these instances, Wraiths have been modified to teleport, allowing them to quickly close on their prey despite their inability to burrow and ambush them. This makes them a greatly feared, but rare, demonic threat.

-Maggot-

Maggots are strange, double headed demons found among the Stone Maze, as well as the edge of the Burning Plains. With their sickly green hide, two blood red heads, and yellow eyes, Maggots are bizarre and hideous creatures. Their two heads resemble bloody wolf skulls, with large fangs and glowing eyes jutting from the skull shape. Maggots also possess another pair of smaller, insect like arms on their chest. They have huge muscular arms and legs, and are incredibly jumpers. They lack tails. Despite having two heads, these heads lack brains. Instead, Maggots have a large, single brain located inside their broad and strong shoulders, protected by bone plates and muscles. Despite this, the two heads can act independently, looking around and snapping their jaws separately from each other. However, the two "heads" will never fight, due to the central brain controlling the body. This large brain makes them more intelligent then Pinkies, almost as smart as Blood Demons. Maggots are the top predators of the Stone Maze. Using their powerful limbs, they will stalk, then ambush their prey in a fashion similar to big cats before giving chase. Despite being bipedal, Maggots will use their upper limbs to help them run at high speeds, allowing them to get close enough to leap on their prey and rip it apart with their arms and jaws. Maggots primarily travel along, but mated pairs can be found hunting together on occasions. Male Maggots are heavily muscles, have red barb like spikes on their shoulders and spine, and are forest green in color. Females are slimmer, with narrower waists and larger hips for child bearing. They also lack the spikes, and are a more yellowish green in color. However, they still possess the crimson red heads. Female come into heat 4 times a year, and at this time, males will wrestle for dominance of the female in a similar fashion to Blood Demons. However, due to their spiked smaller limbs, and two heads, Maggot wrestling fights are even more violent then Blood Demon fights, and death is not uncommon for the losers. The new couple will then mate. After mating, the male will stay with the female, who will give birth to on average two whelps. The couple will then hunt together, providing food for the whelps until they are 6 months old. While with their parents, the whelps will often ride on the backs of their parents, one on the mother, and one on the father. After reaching maturity, the whelps and their parents will go their separate ways, and the female will wait another year before mating again. Due to their ferocious behavior, and brutal fighting skills, Demon Lords love having Maggots in their arena fights. They are also sometimes used for the military; however, Demon Lords prefer to use Pinkies due to their lesser intelligence.

-Gulper Demons-

Gulper Demons are long, somewhat snake like demons found in the Stone Maze and Broken Hills. With a length of 15ft. and as big around as a human male, Gulpers are relatively large, but are seen as mostly feeble. With dark brown skin, and small shoulder and back spikes, they are relatively plain looking demons. Lacking eyes, they appear to have a tiny head, and no mouth, with long, robust arms located behind their long necks. In actuality, Gulpers have enormous mouths that run the entire length of their necks. These large mouths possess hundreds of small, needle like teeth. Similar to the earth Gulper Eel or which their named, Gulper Demons use these enormous mouths to swallow large prey completely whole. Gulpers can catch, and swallow, a full-grown Leaper with ease, and can thus swallow an entire human without even trying. To hunt, they often slither across the large boulders and cliffs found in the Stone Maze and Broken Hills, searching for prey. Once spotted, they will position themselves over the top of their prey, anchoring themselves with their barbed tails. They will then lunge down, jaws open wide, to catch and engulf the prey. Once subdued, they will then pull them into their jaws completely, often with the prey still alive, soaking them in their digestive juices. They will then pull themselves too secluded spot, and wait, allowing their bodies to slowly dissolve and digest the prey. Male and female Gulper Demons are identical, and mate in a fashion similar to snakes. After mating, the female will lay around 10 eggs, burying them in the dirt before leaving them to their fate. The eggs hatch in about 2 months, and the young grow up after about 3 more. Gulper eggs, and whelps, are a favorite food of Haggle Demons, and young Maggots. However, adult Gulpers are a primary predator of Haggle Demons, and commonly eat young or weak Maggots. Adults are also preyed upon by adult Maggots, and also Cacodemons. Demon Lords find Gulper Demons to be a nuisance, and thus never use them. However, there is a single documented event where a Gulper Demon found itself inside a UAC facility. It proceeded to devour 4 scientists over the course of 3 weeks before it was discovered and eliminated by UAC security. Dr. Haydon called the event a "tragic, yet enlightening turn of events."

-Cacodemon-

Cacodemons are large, floating psionic demons that are relatives of the Yapperdemon. Shaped like large, red, spiky eyeballs, Cacodemons are one of the most recognizable demons found in Hell. Possessing small, shriveled arms, a single green eye, a large, a swollen abdomen, red armored, and spiked skin similar to the Pinky, and a massive maw that would put a Pinky to shame, the uniqueness of the Cacodemon doesn't end there. To hunt, Cacodemons can belch out a ball of psionic vomit, which scrambles the neural passageways within the targets body. This results in the target going blind, and their muscles locking up, preventing them from moving temporally. This allows the Cacodemon to float in and bite down with their massive jaws, delivering the strongest bite within (and outside) Hell. Cacodemons can be found floating almost anywhere within Hell air, but congregate along the Broken Hills during the breeding season. They can eat almost anything living, however, their favorite food seems to be their cousins, Yapperdemons. Cacodemons due everything in the air, whether it be sleeping, feeding, or breeding. Males and female are identical, with nothing discerning the two. During the mating season, males will scream at each other to scare away rivals, and to attract females. These calls carry for miles within Hell, and are described as a cross between a dying pig, and a deflating balloon. Once a female has been attracted, they will mate. Like the Yapperdemon, the female's reproductive organs are located on her lower back instead of her underbelly or directly behind her, allowing the male easier access. After mating, the female will lay 3 eggs within the Broken Hills. After 3 months, if they are not eaten by Haggle Demons or young Cacodemons, the eggs will hatch. Unlike Yapperdemons, Cacodemons leave their young after laying them, forcing them to fend for themselves. Caco whelps have developed legs, and undeveloped air bladders. This means that they use their legs to scurry over the ground and across the cliffs, eating Skitters, young Haggle Demons, and even Yapper and Caco eggs. After about 6 mouths, the whelps will have matured enough to fill their air bladders, and they will then take to the skies. A month after they've been aloft, their arms will have shriveled up, become only useful for stabilization during mating. Demon Lord greatly admire the ferocity, and intimidating appearance of the Cacodemon, and they are heavily used in all of Hell's armors as battle beasts. Their psionic attack is a bonus, greatly favorited by Demon Lords. Similar to Pinkies, Cacodemons are still treated as wild beasts, but unlike them, Cacodemons are never killed for their flesh. Dr. Olivia pierce has tried for years to try to unlock the secrets of the Cacodemon. Though finding little success, recently, she has developed a serum from their vomit which allows people to gaze into the minds of demons and hear their thoughts. Dr. Haydon has praised her for this genus design, but many other scientists fear what the serum might do, even going as far as saying that I will allow a Demon Lord to speak to you directly and manipulator your mind. While Pierce denies such things, others disagrees. Only time will tell.
