Lore

From Wowpedia:

Demons are evil immortals who feed upon magic and life. They delight in inflicting suffering, spreading corruption, and, of course, destroying all that is good. Most demons were once mortal. Not all demons are sentient: various animals have been transformed into demons, for instance.

Warlocks bind demons to their will; these infernal denizens defend their masters with their lives or rain death upon their enemies. At first, they command only the service of imps, but as a warlock’s knowledge grows, seductive succubi, loyal voidwalkers, and horrific felhunters join the dark sorcerer’s ranks to wreak havoc on anyone who stands in their master’s way.

The Twisting Nether is home to an infinite number of malefic, demonic beings that seek only to destroy life and devour the energies of the living universe.

In order to become a demon, a creature must be infused with fel energy. As the existence of non-sentient demons suggests, a creature's wishes are irrelevant to the process. Willing or not, a creature can be changed into a demon. Such a transformation alters the affected creature on a fundamental level and typically leaves little or nothing of that creature's original personality. Still, at least one demon has thus far maintained much of his original personality: Illidan Stormrage.

No discussion of demons can be complete without mentioning Sargeras, the dark titan. Over the course of millennia, he twisted many creatures into demons so that they would join his Burning Legion and work toward his goal: the destruction of the universe, which he believed to be fundamentally flawed. Fulfilling his grim design, the Legion has ravaged innumerable worlds. All demons once feared Sargeras' vast might and fury. However, most demons in the Legion served him simply because they enjoy doing so.

However, Sargeras was not the sole creator of demons, and there are demons that have no affiliation with the Legion. Again, Illidan is an example of both of these exceptions. It was these demons that led to Sargeras' transformation from the titan champion into the Master of the Burning Legion. Several demons are furthermore used as servants and companions by magicans, most notably by warlocks.

A demon's hunger for life and magic can never be sated for long. More to the point, a demon's innate cruelty makes a moot point of whatever temporary satiation a demon can know. As a result, destruction tends to follow demons, whether or not they are part of the Legion.

In Hearthstone

Demon minions in Hearthstone come in a variety of forms, from 1/1 Worthless Imps to the 9/7 nathrezim Mal'Ganis, to the replacement hero Lord Jaraxxus. While Demons possess a variety of abilities, common themes are drawbacks, damage and summoning.

Minions such as Doomguard, Flame Imp and Felguard offer great effect but at the price of a sacrifice of some sort from the player. This reflects the dark bargains employed by warlocks to summon demons, similar to that depicted in the Life Tap hero power. A similar theme, many Demons deal damage in one way or another, either as a drawback, as an additional effect, such as that of Dread Infernal, or as a key component of their function, as with Mistress of Pain and Floating Watcher. Finally, many demons offer summoning effects, such as Imp Master, Illidan Stormrage and Voidcaller.
