Arkosh
Insane Good-Aligned Fiends of Archeon
Basic Information
Anatomy
Arkosh, like Demons, Devils, and Yugoloths, have vastly different looks depending on the Arkosh itself. However, each Arkosh has at least 2 arms and 2 legs. Each arm can have 1-2 hands, and each hand could have a number of fingers ranging from 3-6, and each leg has a foot with 4-5 toes.
Biological Traits
No 2 Arkosh are the same. Because they are a fusion of a Devil and a Demon, they can be almost anything, like a Pit Fiend with Glabrezu Claws instead of wings, Which are called Glafiez.
Genetics and Reproduction
Arkosh can come from 3 different ways. The first, the mating between Devils and Demons. This unholy abomination will create an Arkosh, depending on the two different Demons and Devils mating. This is the absolute rarest kind of arkosh creation method.
Arkosh, unlike Devils, Demons, or even Yugoloths, cannot come out because of Mortal death. When an evil creature emerges from the River of Styx, an Arkosh may come and kidnap it, and bring it to Archeon, using magic to turn it into one of their own.
Likewise, Arkosh can reproduce among each other. Doing so will create an Arkosh that take from both families, creating another version, and sometimes an entirely new type of Arkosh. Arkosh reproduction is done through pregnancies that last for 4 months.

History
In 5556cr, The First Arkosh is made, coming from an unknown god found deep in the Far Realm. The first Arkosh where Marnyes (Erinyes and Marillath), the Osyrou (Osyluth and Hezrou), the Pit Balor (Pit Fiend and Balor), the Glafiez (Pit Fiend and Glabrezu), the Lemane (Lemure and Mane), the Gelau (Gelugon and Babau), and the Amnishnee (Amnizu and Nalfeshnee). They would appear in Archeon, fighting evil, and stealing the souls of the Damned for their own purposes. When the Material Plane was made, and the first man was created, a Hamlor (Hamatula and Balor) would investigate the new beings and if they needed to destroy them. He would find that they aren't specifically evil, and would return to Archeon to continue the help in fighting.
Interspecies Relations and Assumptions
Arkosh live in a weird place when it comes to other species. Most creatures do not even know of their existence, because of the mixture of not going to the material plane often enough, not ever being mentioned by any Devils, Demons, or Yugoloths, and, finally, only having one Emperor that can even allow Clerics to use his power. The few that do know of the Arkosh tend to talk about how they are "Rude, somewhat annoying, and horrifyingly ugly, but seem to want to be good, and can be quite genuinely kind."
