-Most devils, unlike [[Demon|demons]], rarely venture beyond their place of origin.  Lemure, however, are the commonest form to find in the world.  Unlike the traditional image of a "devil," lemure are often misunderstood and wrongly identified as [[Undead|undead]] when they appear.  This is supported by the common appearance of lemure on battlefields or near graveyards, for they are vengeful and take pleasure from desecrating the dead.  This includes removing corpses from tombs; it's not known why.  Some have argued it's to punish the dead in Hell, that their memory will be lost to the living; but this claim has found no evidence to support it.

 They lurk upon battlefields with the hopes of catching stray soldiers who have fled in cowardly fashion from the fray.  Each lemure of the number appearing will attempt to seize and return to Hell with a single victim, who will be feasted upon by the lemure's masters.  It is especially the live victims, with their souls intact, that are desired.
