 Demons can be born through natural childbirth. Yes, demons can have babies, however this is by far one of the most rare methods. A demon born from two demonic parents often inherits powers from both parents, and can skip over the harsh process of being an Ashborn.
-The majority of demons are either born from souls of individuals deemed too wicked by the gods or brought to the Beneath via demonic contracts. If they don't get eaten right away and the Beneath's magic-draining properties don't absorb them into the fabric of the plane, a body slowly grows around the soul and thus rises an Ashborn. These Ashborn are often not the most coordinated, but usually retain some semblance of a consciousness.

 There are places called the Spawning Pits spotted over the landscape. These magma-like pits are where Ashborn sometimes rise from the depths and slowly make their way onto the land. These pits are only ever found on the 1st layer of the Beneath, with one reportedly being in the 4th layer but that is just speculation. Of course, I have never seen it myself. Ashborn that come from the pits are mindless and incredibly uncoordinated. To say they are dumber than a sack of rocks would be insulting to the rocks. But now with that out of the way, let's discuss what an Ashborn is.

 ==== Greater Demons ====
-Greater Demons are those that have gained enough energy to undergo the process of evolution. And note, you do not have to be a full demon to undergo this. Devilkin and half-demons can and have undergone this process. Now I'm not going to cover the entire broad spectrum of every possible greater demon, as each are ultimately unique, but I will cover a few.

 Generally, the most common characteristics of a greater demon usually boil down to greater strength, magical power, agility, endurance and the like. Some demons gain more abilities beyond the standard.
