Modus made the Daemon race with the cauldron to make new lifeforms, they were made with the cauldron of life so they are based on the goddess Mina's piece. The daemon race accompanied Modus' banishment to the land of Nargol.

## Etymology

### Daemon

**Daemon** (ダイモーン, *Daimōn*?) is the Latin word for the Ancient Greek **daimon** (δαίμων: "god", "godlike", "power", "fate"), which originally referred to a lesser deity or guiding spirit such as the daemons of ancient Greek religion and mythology and of later Hellenistic religion and philosophy. The original Greek word daimon does not carry negative connotations. The Ancient Greek word δαίμων daimōn denotes a spirit or divine power, much like the Latin genius or *numen*. The Greek conception of a daimōn notably appears in the works of Plato, where it describes the divine inspiration of Socrates. The word is derived from Proto-Indo-European \*daimon "provider, divider (of fortunes or destinies)," from the root \*da- "to divide". Daimons were possibly seen as the souls of men of the golden age acting as tutelary deities, according to entry δαίμων at Liddell & Scott.

### Demon

A **Demon** (デーモン, *Dēmon*?) is a supernatural being prevalent historically in religion, occultism, literature, fiction, mythology, and folklore; as well as in media such as comics, videogames, movies and television series. In Ancient Near Eastern religions and in the Abrahamic traditions, including ancient and medieval Christian demonology, a demon is considered a harmful spiritual entity which may cause demonic possession, calling for an exorcism. In Western occultism and Renaissance magic, which grew out of an amalgamation of Greco-Roman magic, Jewish Aggadah and Christian demonology, a demon is believed to be a spiritual entity that may be conjured and controlled.

## Development

Takeru Nezaki said that the correct way to pronounce **Damon** (デイモン, *Deimon*?) is **Daemon** (ダイモーン, *Daimōn*?). But Daemon is the old name for **Demon** (デーモン, *Dēmon*?), and the essence is the same, so there is no problem with Demon.
