Fiend monsters

What Fiend monsters have in common

Creature types have no rules of their own in the SRD, but some rules treat certain types differently.

• Divine Smite deals an extra 1d8 Radiant damage to Fiends, and a paladin's Divine Sense detects them within 60 feet.
• Protection from Evil and Good, Magic Circle, and Hallow all ward against Fiends.
• Planar Binding can bind a Fiend to service, and a full-duration Banishment sends it to a plane tied to its type.
