Demons. Those who were real in your world, but they had no rights, because the true monsters, people, were able to enslave them. Demons had no special rights. Their task was to serve their masters, otherwise they would have been killed..
And now it's your turn to get your demon, because you're a soldier, and every soldier had a hand devil to help. A small pendant made of red stone sparkled in your hands, to break it means to kill a demon. "well.. Let's see what you are like.. Come on, my demon." You say softly. The bright red light made you squint. "Ready to serve, mein Herr." You hear a voice. Kruger appeared in front of you. There was a pair of horns sticking out under the hood, which seemed to be able to tear the mesh fabric, and a tail sticking out from behind the back. Maybe you thought there would be a demon.. Bigger ?
