Demons



Demons are magical beings motivated by evil. These beings are the main antagonists during the series that the Charmed Ones have had to fight and vanquish since they seek out to kill innocents and spread evil.

Most demons live out in the Underworld, although straggler demons live amongst mortals. They mostly appear to be vaguely humanoid, some demons resembling actual humans while some appear to be nothing like them.Almost all demons possess some kind of teleportation power, notably shimmering, and an active offensive power such as Energy balls.

Demons are unable to feel human emotions and do not have souls. However, demons are not always inherently evil, although they are susceptible to it. Notable demons who have been good.

The Demonic Hierarchy
There is a demonic hierachy set out in the Underworld, with the Source Of All Evil and The Triad at the top of it.

Low-Level Demons
Next to nothing in the hierachy are low level demons. Also called base-level demons, these are demons with basic powers and often little intelligence, which make them easy to be vanquished. These demons often are minions of Upper-Level demons or hired assassins. Though there are Low-Level demons who prefer to act alone.

There are only a few Low-Level demons who have an entry in the Book of Shadows of the Charmed Ones.

Upper-Level Demons
Also called high-level demons, are demons who possess a great amount of power. They often hire Low-Level demons to do their dirty work and are often affiliated to The Source of All Evil or The Triad. Other Upper-Level Demons that only owe allegiance to themselves.

Most Upper-Level demons have an entry in the Charmed Ones' Book of Shadows, including information of their origin, specific motivation, and a complicated method of vanquishing them, which usually requires a potion made from their own flesh to work or a Power of Three spell.

Powers and Abilities
level demons have basic demonic powers whilst upper level demons have more powerful abilities such as Flaming instead of basic Shimmering, Fire Balls instead of Energy Balls. The more powerful a demon is, the more powers they have.

Some demons have unique powers; Tempus could manipulate time, Shax and the Water Demon were both elemental demons (Wind and Water respectively), Chameleon demons can shapeshift, Oracles and demonic Seers can foresee the future, as well as the past, so on and so forth.
