Upon their father's request, the demon hybrids live on the surface world with their human mother Amethyst. They try their best to blend in with the people of Peaceville, although Corey is more successful at it than Trina.

13* CallForward: [[CallForward/DemonSpawnsSeries Has its own page.]]
14* EmotionalPowers: Trina's powers vary depending on her emotions.
15* EvenEvilHasStandards: Trina doesn't want to ruin Corey and Laney's friendship.
16* GenerationXerox: A minor version. Trina is more like her power-hungry and demonic father Satan and Corey takes after his kind and gentle human mother Amethyst.
17* IJustWantToBeNormal: Corey after he meets Laney, Kin, and Kon.
18* OurDemonsAreDifferent: Corey and Trina can disguise themselves as humans and they each have different ElementalPowers.
19* ParentalFavoritism: Trina is Satan's favorite child because she's stronger than Corey.
20* PowerDyesYourHair: Both siblings go through this when they shed their disguises. Trina's hair is dark purple with pink streaks, while Corey gets silver streaks in his natural blue hair.
21* PowerIncontinence: Trina is the most powerful demon in the Underworld (aside from [[{{Satan}} her father]]). She just has a very hard time controlling her EmotionalPowers.
22* PowerMakesYourHairGrow: Trina's hair gets longer when she's in her demon form.
23%%* ShockAndAwe: Corey's main power.
24* SingleTargetSexuality: When demons are attracted to one human, they become fixated on him/her, even throwing mud in the person's face to mark him/her as their own. It's the reason why Corey cares for Laney so much.
25* TheCameo: Satan, Amethyst, and Cerberus also appear in M.R.I.sanity3's story "Make Him Understand".
26* TheReveal: A lot of details from the show are explained in each story.

31* CharacterDevelopment: The longer Corey stays on the surface world, the more comfortable he gets to his new home.
32* DisabledMeansHelpless: Corey has yet to grow out of the monster cat stage even though he's five years old. It's the reason why Carrie and her friends make fun of him.

47* HolyBurnsEvil: Apparently Corey made Trina drink holy water (although it's called "special water" in the story) as an April Fool's joke. She lost all of her powers for the day because of it.
