Were the Kauravas Asuras?
The Pandavas were incarnations of Devas. After Gandharvas defeated Duryodhana and he decided to fast until death, the Asuras took him to Pathala. They told Duryodhana that his upper body was Shiva and his lower body was Parvathy. They got Duryodhana by doing tapas. Many Asuras had already possessed important Kauravas including Bhishma, Drona, and Kripa. The Asuras were controlling them. Narakasura's soul had possessed Karna. Using the bodies of the Kauravas, in fact, the Asuras were fighting Lord Krishna and the Devas who had taken birth as Pandavas. (Vana Parva,252)
Who is Acchoda?
Acchoda was Satyavati in her previous birth. She belonged to the clan of ancestors called Barhishada Pitrus. She did intense tapas and the Pitrus appeared before her. But she got attracted towards one among them. When the ancestors realized this, they cursed her to take birth on earth as Satyavati. She got relief from the curse after she married King Shantanu and gave birth to two sons. Then she returned to Pitruloka and is now worshiped as Ashtaka.
