Demon

Demons are found in The Underworld. In addition to causing physical damage if contacted, they shoot accelerating purple blades at the player, similar to the Demon Scythe spell, in volleys of four. These blades are stopped by barriers such as walls and ash blocks, and have a chance of blinding the player. The blades cannot be destroyed if they are hit by a weapon, unlike the fireballs of the Fire Imp which can be destroyed.

Demons that come in contact with lava will not get hurt (like most underworld mobs). A rarer variation of the Demon is the Voodoo Demon.

Demons are immune to the On Fire! debuff.

Trivia

 * The Demon's Demon Scythe attack is the only Magic attack produced by an NPC that does not pass through walls; however, the projectile can, in fact, hit players through one-block thick walls.
 * The Demon resembles Firebrand, a Ghosts 'n Goblins enemy who starred in his own series Gargoyle's Quest. His most recent appearance was in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
 * there is also a Arch Demon its just a stronger demon that I think drops the same thing as a normal demon. Its color is different but its in hell so its hard to make out what color it is. It does seems to fire more demon scythes then the normal demon too.
