While I should note that this knowledge comes in spite of having never played the Pen and Paper game (in spite of owning several of the necessary tomes), in D&D you need not know the specific name of a demon in order to summon a demon. The name itself gives the one doing the summoning a greater degree of power in the ensuing negotiation and further grants the summoner the ability to summon a particular demon. Otherwise, you just summon a random demon from a given tier of the Demon social structure. I'm sure other fantasy worlds have rules for Demon Summoning and all but D&D is the only one I know of off hand, mostly because I've never actually bothered reading the various rule books for other Fantasy RPGs. | |

Most of the stuff I tend to not think about since by now they pretty much count as MMORPG tropes/cliches.
Although asking those questions is hilarious.
