'Demons' in Hinduism

There was a topic on 'Demon Portraits' in Left-Hand Path Religions DIR. I collected some images of 'Demons in Hinduism'. But I cannot post in the said DIR. So I thought I would post them in Hinduism DIR.

Hiranyakashipu and Prahlad, Mahabali, Mahishasura, Ravana. (Hiranyakashipu and Ravan are supposed to be incarnations of Jaya, a gate-keeper of Lord Vishnu's palace - Vaikuntha)

Note: Asura King Mahābāli has been designated by Lord Vishnu as the Indra of the next eon (Chaturyuga) because of his philanthropy (give away everything). Lord Vishnu appreciated that. He will assume his charge as Indra in 428,899 CE.
When Asura King Mahābāli ruled the universe, his capital was somewhere in Kerala, Thiruananthapuram/Cochi.
