Demons

**Demons** (魔物 *mamono*, "demons") are a race of beings that originate from a world separate from humans that is simply known as the Demon World.  They are also known as “mamodo” in the VIZ localization of the series.

## Overview

Demon society is governed by a single ruler in the Demon World. Every 1,000 years, 100 demon children are chosen and sent to the Human World to participate in a battle that will determine their next ruler. While in the Human World, demons are unable to cast spells freely by themselves as they were able to in the Demon World. Each demon child is given their own unique spell book in which their spells are contained within for the battle. In order to use their powers, they must rely on a human partner who will be able to fight with them in battle by providing the power needed to cast these spells.  Chosen demons are expected to participate in the battle until only one remains and assume the role of the next ruler of their world.

### Characteristics

While many demons seen throughout the series appear human-like, demons can greatly differ from each other in terms of appearance. The humanoid, bestial, floral, and the dragon clans are only a few known types of the many kinds of demons that make up the Demon World.  Unlike humans, demons in general posses great natural strength, endurance, and speed and are capable of developing these abilities even further with proper training. They are also able to recover from most injuries much faster than humans as well.  Most demons are also capable of telling apart other demons from humans.  Some demons even have strong sensory abilities where they are able to sense either the presence of other demons within a certain vicinity or when a demon uses their powers.  Interestingly, while every demon possess unique powers, personalities, and tastes, all demons have a naturally large appetite and all generally love to eat fish.

### Demons and Spell Power

Spells are a type of magical power that many demons are capable of using and can be destructive in nature. Much like with how demons can greatly vary in appearance, the types of spells a demon possesses can also differ. Elemental spells such as lighting, fire, and water are only a few examples of the kinds of powers demons can have. The spell books demons are given during the battle do not create new powers for them. Demons already possess unlimited potential and power hidden inside of them and when this power awakens, it will naturally appear in their spell book.  While the power to use these spells would normally come from the demon themselves, during the battle that takes place in the Human World, it is their human partner who would have to supply heart power in order to cast spells.

#### Demons and Bookkeepers

In order to participate in battles, demons must rely on a human partner who would assume the role as their bookkeeper. Neither demons nor humans get to choose who they would want as their partner. In addition, demons and humans don't need to be individually compatible with each other or even share the same motives in order for them to become partners. While never explained in detail of the specifics, what is known about partnerships between demons and their bookkeepers is that their hearts must be on a similar wavelength with each other in order for them to become true partners.  A common way demons are able to find their destined human partner is by finding out if the human they encounter is able to read their spell book. Humans that are not meant to become bookkeepers will not be able to read the text within the book  and the same idea applies to bookkeepers who are already partners with another demon. When it comes to finding their true human partner, demons are naturally drawn nearby or towards their fated human partner but they will not be able to know who their partner is until they actually meet them.  While many demons usually find their partners in a short amount of time, others may end up taking close to upwards of several months before they ever meet their partner.
