D&D Context[]
- Dire animals are a class of larger and more ferocious creatures.
- Fiendish creatures are denizens of the Lower Planes. As such they are inherently evil and have special qualities. The Fiendish template can be applied to any type of creature, not just the Outsider Types. Half-fiends are descended from fiends but have other parentage.
