The only way to truly destroy a demon is to seek it in the
Abyss and kill it there.
Protected Essence. A powerful demon can take steps
to safeguard its life essence, using secret methods and
abyssal metals to create an amulet into which part of
that essence is ceded. If the demon's abyssal form is
ever destroyed, the amulet allows the fiend to reform at
a time and place of its choosing.
Obtaining a demonic amulet is a dangerous
enterprise, and simply seeking such a device risks
drawing the attention of the demon that created it. A
creature possessing a demonic amulet can exact favors
from the demon whose life essence the amulet holds-
or inflict great pain if the fiend resists. If an amulet is
destroyed, the demon that created it is trapped in the
Abyss for a year and a day.

ambitions in exchange for magic and other boons.
