A demonic figure shining with the light and fury of a fallen star.

"Behold him setting in his western skies,
The shadows lengthening as the vapours rise."

-John Dryden, "Absalom and Achitophel", I, 268. 1681.

Useful Info

Sun demons are fire-themed tier-3 demons. They are fast, boast several resistances, and have powerful fiery melee attacks, making them a threat to characters who encounter them without the right preparations. They can be found in the Abyss, Pandemonium, and the Hells, and some monsters can summon them through the Summon Demon spell.

Tips & Tricks

  • They deal an additional 10-19 fire damage per hit in melee, bypassing AC. Use fire resistance if it's available.
  • Their have mediocre HP and EV, so a common wand of cold can easily handle them.
