A man-sized demon covered in glittering ice.

Ice devils are cold-themed tier-4 demons. For a low-level character, they are a tough melee opponent (16 + 7-23 cold damage). They can be found in the Abyss, Pandemonium, in and around Ice caves, or created by Summon Demon.

When guarding the entrance to an Ice cave, they can be found as early as Lair:1, where they are dangerous foes. Having cold resistance will take much of the sting out of their melee attacks.

 ==Useful Info==
-'''Ice devils''' are [[cold]]-themed [[tier-4 demon]]s. Although they lack any form of ranged attack, their melee capabilities are extremely dangerous for low-level characters, dealing an additional 7-23 cold damage on top of their 1d16 physical attack. At later levels, however, they are mostly harmless. While they ignore most cold attacks, [[fire]] damage or weapons of [[holy wrath]] are very effective against them. They can be found in [[the Abyss]], [[Pandemonium]], the [[Hell]]s, or (dangerously early) in the [[Ice Cave]].
