Demons (悪魔 Akuma) are a race of magical beings who dwell in Earth Land.
Description
The appearance and abilities of Demons vary, although there are a number of common traits which many of them share. Such traits may include horns, pointed ears, claws, tails and leathery wings.[1]
There is a subspecies of Demon, known as the Etherious, which is comprised of Demons born from the Books of Zeref.[2]
Demons and Etherious carry Demon particles within them; Mirajane Strauss also possess these particles, which she called the "Demon Factor" and explained that it was required for the use of her signature Magic; this Demon Factor is also used by members of Tartaros to turn humans into Demon hybrids, though the only known successful cases were Doriate, Minerva Orland, and her father.[3]
Magic and Abilities
Demons have a number of Magic and abilities, though it varies from Demon to Demon. The subspecies known as Etherious prefer to use Curses, rather than Magic.[4]
Transformation Magic (変身魔法 Henshin Mahō): The Demons living on Galuna Island possess this Magic and use it to transform into humans.[5]
Flight: Many winged Demons have been shown to possess the ability to fly with their wings.[6]
