The Devaputra is the essence of Myiasis, the principle of flesh turning other flesh into more of itself. Distilled to its essence like this it is virulently dangerous, ceaselessly copying itself. It eats, it infects and it impregnates until all flesh in a space is more Devaputra.

The Argentonymus is a sort of "abyssal mirror life," life naturally occurring deep inside reflections. Bringing it into the real world requires the refining of silver into its purest essence, where it is prized by cultists of Chazakiel, a fallen angel associated with reflections.

The Embryon is what remains of the prime matter of flesh when all else is stripped away from it. It shambles around, resembling a humanoid- though it lacks every single trait of a human save for 'the flesh.' For alchemists, the Embryon is a blank slate on which to build new life.

The Ficus Genetrix is an example of a Myiasis-type demon, a demon symbolizing how organisms turn other organisms into more of themselves, in this case inspired by the life cycle of the common fig or Ficus Carica

The Witsilver is cinnabar, the moon-element of change and mercury as well as one of the four components of the cosmic self distilled into its essence. It is an amorphous metal blob capable of taking any shape, yet is most prized for its staggeringly large intellectual capacities.

The Bottlebird is the bile, the caustic element that breaks down organic material distilled into its essence. Alchemists call acids "bottled spirits," likening the digestion of matter to a spirit devouring them, but the true spirit from the bottle is this ravenous, predatory bird.

Alchemists adore distilling elements down to their essence, and in an animist world these essences can have forms reminiscent of the myriad forms of life. The Gnome is the essence of lead, prized by many an alchemist for it's darkly comedic demeanour and hardy, unyielding nature.

All that remains of the Tartar army are sparse remnants scattered throughout the Abode and corpses with teethmarks on their bones. The few remaining generals stalk the labyrinthine halls, having failed their task yet now something more than human. They roam, looking for new meat.

The Sharp Prince is one remaining half of a living artefact, a thing blurring the lines between 'organism' and 'tool.'
She is a blade of judgement made the focal point of a web of living string and thread, pulsing as arteries would, and entangling as threads of brain-silk would.

With nary a drop of divinity in him, Belial desires to rule but is unable to attain any deific state. Still, he styles himself as a worldly ruler carrying the mandate of Buer. He has taken control of the lower realms with military might, now ruling as a mockery of human nobility.

The Acolytes of the Amicit believe flesh is what holds back their evolution and eventual ascenscion into beings of pure thought. To reach enlightenment, they separate from their flesh and become Skeletons. Freed from the burden of thought, the flesh in turn becomes a happy slime.

The Olm are subterranean lizards who have adapted to their dark environment to the point of losing their eyes in favour of other, far sharper but alien senses. The common Olm are only babies, the offspring of 'Great Olms', dragons who dwell in the vast darkness beneath the world.

Summoning demons is fraught with danger, and not just for the summoner. If summoning or fusion rituals are improperly executed, several demons might accidentally be conjoined into a suffering mess of limbs with no real sense of identity, a 'Miscreant'

The Yutu are the native inhabitants of the Moon. Once peaceful and edenic, a luminous being descended from the cosmos and taught them the horrors of modern civilization. Now they chart the heavens, toil and farm on silver fields of moondust and wage war with instruments of death.

The astral seas beyond the firmament are home to many beings, growing ever stranger and ever larger the further you stray into the dark depths of space.
