This subtype is usually applied to outsiders Native to the evil-aligned outer planes. Evil outsiders are also called fiends. Most creatures that have this subtype also have evil alignments; however, if their alignments change, they still retain the subtype. Any effect that depends on Alignment affects a Creature with this subtype as if the Creature has an evil Alignment, no matter what its Alignment actually is. The Creature also suffers effects according to its actual Alignment. A Creature with the evil subtype overcomes Damage reduction as if its natural Weapons and any Weapons it wields are evil-aligned (see Damage Reduction, page 299).
