Souls

With each other or other demons.

Abraxans have no trueform, but take one of 7 planets as their domain. Each "planet" is actually a modus operandi. The first, called Messenger, is the spreading of lies in the guise of bringing news. The second, called Seducer, is the fairly straight forward. The third, called Mother, is raising others from youth and filling them with lies. The fourth, Warrior, is using deception in the arts of war. The fifth, Lord, is using deception to gain immense power. The sixth, Historian, is falsifying the past to control the present. The seventh, God, is pretending to be a source of power and faith and using those who follow it.

Each of these "planets" comes with certain powers: The Messenger can teleport and speak any tongue. The Seducer has the skills of seduction and can see into mortal's hearts. The Mother is a skilled child psychologist and can instinctively know the form of a child's parents. The Warrior is a strategist and a fighter. The Lord knows politics and oratory. The Historian has scholarly skills and can use minor time travel. And the God can answer prayers.

Abraxan culture depends on their chosen "planet." Messengers tend to be chaotic, going from one victim to another in short periods of time, spreading lies and watching the results, taking the souls of the most immediate victims after they die. Seducers act almost exactly like succubi or other seducing demons, much to the irritation of those demons. Mothers spend a long time nurturing their victims, using them to make more victims (every person killed by the "child" of a Mother abraxan loses its soul to the abraxan). Warriors join armies and spread disinformation, either as intelligence officials or as scouts. Lords control nations via promises of utopia. Historians tell tales of past utopias and other fictions to control their prey, and Gods tell their followers that they are Divine, then use them to create murder-cults.
