Vrynaga is a semi-open species, a bipedal insectoid and/or reptilian like demons from Munity's Infernal Abyss. They're a hybrid of 2 most well-known demons in Infernal Abyss, Suriga and Aranian. `Most of these species went up to the surface and live in a country called Asorium.
Vrynagas, demons originating from the Inferno, stand apart from their counterparts shaped by the deity of the Moon. These unique beings owe their existence to the deity of chaos. Their emergence coincided with the creation of a portal to the surface, igniting a conflict between the Aranians and Surigas—two primary demon factions. The initial skirmishes between these opposing groups persisted until the Deity of the Moon noticed; however before they could intervene themselves, the deity of chaos merged multiple Surigas and Aranians, creating a hybrid force that struck fear into the hearts of both factions, abruptly halting their destructive feud.
Vrynagas, considered monstrous by both Aranians and Surigas, are a source of repulsion for these two demon factions. The deep-seated discord between them stands in stark contrast to their shared origin under the auspices of their beloved deity. However, a pivotal moment emerged when the 'first' Vrynaga hatched from an egg created by the King of Surigas and the Queen of Aranians. This unique being was intended as a solution to end the ongoing conflict between the two demons. Yet, behind the palace walls, the rulers harbour a mutual disdain for one another.
Over the years, Vrynagas endured the torment of larger demons, yet with Sora assuming the role of queen, the mistreatment of Vrynagas significantly decreased. The improved relations between Aranians and Surigas over time contributed to this positive change. However, lingering animosity towards Vrynagas persists outside Asorium, primarily rooted in their status as creations of the Chaos Deity.
They're required to have at least 3 or more eyes (max of 8 eyes), a single mouth (must be on the head), 4 limbs (max of 8 limbs), antennas (unlimited) and a single tail (no tail is rare). Their ear holes are not visible, it is small like birds, being covered by hair, feather or fur, they are located on top of their head, close to their eyes or under their jaw.

Vrynagas only take 10 human years for them to age up to an adult Vrynaga.
They cannot die of old age, as their biological systems don't degrade over time, but external threats, such as fatal illnesses or physical harm, can lead to their demise.
Vrynagas are often perceived as delicate and feeble due to their history of being unable to resist Suriga and Aranian and their charming appearance, these demons are deceptively robust. As hybrids of the two highest-ranking demons in the underworld, Vrynagas possess inherent strength beyond their external portrayal.
While Vrynagas are generally amiable, residing in the underworld tends to bring out a more aggressive side. Fueled by competitiveness and pride, they rarely shy away from challenges, aiming to counter the stereotype of weakness associated with their kind. Despite this, some Vrynagas exhibit humility and view their peers as equals.
Every individual Vrynaga harbors one of the seven deadly sins—pride, wrath, envy, greed, lust, gluttony, or sloth. These sins play a significant role in shaping and influencing the personality of each Vrynaga, adding a distinctive dimension to their character.
Vrynagas are omnivores but on the top of vrynaga food chain is often sweetor sugary food such as chocolates, sweets, ice cream and anything that is very sweet especially wild golden honeycomb in Asorium as vrynagas immediately gain quite a lot of energy when consuming the honey. Regardless of what's in their food chain, vrynagas could eat any food that any humans in Munity could consume but they won't give them as much energy like sweet and sugary food or drinks.
Most civilised vrynaga are able to talk in any languages, most however most likely talk in Asorian or English. Tribal vrynagas however, speaks in their own created language, Vrynese.
INFERNAL ABYSS
A realm teeming with demons and creatures situated at the core of Munity. This dimension is renowned for its seven layers, each encompassing both scorching heat and icy cold. It serves as the destination for impure souls, subjecting them to punishment for their committed crimes. While the initial six layers are notoriously tormenting, the seventh layer is a place where misunderstood souls, even those who committed minor transgressions, find themselves.
ASORIUM
A sophisticated and independent nation on the planet Munity, Asorium provides a refuge for demons and creatures from the Infernal seeking a more civilized and peaceful existence. Here, residents escape the hardships of life in the Infernal to enjoy a life of ease and tranquility. Asorium is renowned for its prosperity, so much so that encountering its citizens living on the streets is a rare occurrence, a testament to the wealth and comfort prevalent throughout the country.
