* In 2nd Edition ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' (where ''Monsterous Compendium'' tomes state each monster's Diet, among other ecology-related facts) fiends and most other residents of the Lower Planes are always listed as Carnivores. One ''[[Planescape]]'' sourcebook states that the Chaotic demons go beyond what is typical for predators, as they prefer their prey to be terrified before making the kill.
** This is also true for many (but not all) monsters with no supernatural powers or those listed as [[Exclusively Evil]]; it's rare to find an [[Evil Vegetarian]] in the game. An owlbear is strickly carnivorous (despite bears being omnivores) and they are known for having rotten tempers. There are exceptions, though, like the fhorge (another beast with a bad temper, but an omnivore) and jungle giants (carnivores and excellent hunters, but far more willing to negotiate with humans than most other giants).
