Arch Daemons ｢上位魔将, āku dēmon, lit. "High Rank Demonic General"｣ are the peak evolutionary stage that can be reached by Daemons in the Daemon Realm. Only the most powerful of Greater Daemons can ascend to this height. They are considered legendary Monsters to the general public and, taking the "Lord of Darkness" aside, considered the pinnacle of Daemons that unofficially confirmed and only existing in a few records.
Background[]
Within the sphere of the Western Nations, the common sense regarding Arch Daemons is that it's impossible for a Nameless Daemon to be an Arch Daemon. The only way for Arch Daemons to come into existence is supposedly the case where a strong Greater Daemon gets named, evolving into an Arch Daemon. Hence a common question when dealing with Daemons is "does it have a name?", to ascertain whether the Daemon in question could be an Arch Daemon or not. However, this common belief is completely wrong. As any Daemons with sufficient strength even for a "Modern" species can become an Arch Daemon without a name.
It is also possible for a Greater Daemon to become an Arch Daemon just from "the public" unintentionally naming them based on a legend or tale.
Properties[]
Arch Daemons possess an immense amount of power, comparable to that of a Demon Lord Seed. They, unlike Lesser Daemons and most Greater Daemons, possess an almost entirely human appearance. The only non-human features possessed by them are the iconic claws, horns, and wings found on all members of the daemon race, although these can easily be hidden at their discretion. Their appearance, like that of all Spiritual Lifeforms, is dictated entirely by their self image. They might have been influenced by a body they previously inhabited or developed their own appearance naturally without the influence of other individuals.
Arch Daemons all belong to a specific color lineage, with their color being apparent in their appearance. The color of a Daemon's sclera will usually match their lineage and, although not always, other parts of their body match this color as well. Examples include, but are not limited to, hair color, iris color, and skin color. The color of their clothing usually also reflects the color of their lineage.
