Demonic Power

**Demonic Power** is a type of magic used by Devils in *High School DxD*. It is the opposite to Holy Magic, which is used by Angels.

## Summary

A form of magic primarily utilized by Devils, allowing the caster to conjure and manipulate various spells raging from basic to combat. Demonic Power also contains spells unique only to the Devil clans that can only be inherent by blood.

To use Demonic Power, Devils must first acquire the power of imagination and the power to create, as well as have a good sense. While demonic powers manifest in all devils, there are rare occasions where Devils with be born with a low amount of Demonic power, and in the case of a Pure-blooded High-class Devil, without their clans unique clan ability. Due to the pride of the upper echelons of noble High-class Devil society, the High-class Devils who are born with low demonic powers are discriminated against, even by members of their own family. The most notable example of this would be Sairaorg Bael, who was born with low demonic power and without the signature ability of the Bael Clan; the Power of Destruction as he was exiled by his father to a remote region to prevent other Devils from knowing about Sairaorg's condition.

The descendants of the noble devil clans such as the 72 Pillars and Extra Demons are noted to possess a great amount of Demonic power as members of High-Class clans appear to inherit special innate magical abilities genetically unique to that clan, though occasionally descendants of those who marry out of the clan will also inherit these abilities, such as Venelana Gremory's children; Sirzechs Lucifer and Rias Gremory inheriting her Power of Destruction, which she possessed due to her being born into the Bael clan which possessed the ability. The members of the original Four Great Satans clans possess demonic power that is superior to most members of the 72 Pillars and other high-class Devils, drastically exceeding them in power, with the Lucifer lineage being noted to be the strongest in terms of demonic power among even the other Four Great Satans. On rare occasions, a member of a Devil clan may be born with an immense amount of demonic power, as the members of the current Four Great Satans are born from 72 Pillars clans but have powers equal or exceeding those of the original Four Great Satans. Another individual who was born with a immense amount of demonic power is Diehauser Belial, the current Rating Game champion, who's power is stated to be equal to the current Satans. The amount of demonic power a user possesses may be slowly increased by continuous training. Other ways of enhancing Demonic power may include using a power strengthening snake from Ophis, which increases the user's Demonic Power or by using a King Piece, a special Evil Piece that enhances the user Demonic Power by a factor of 10 or 100. On extremely rare occasions, certain irregular Devils known as **Super Devils**, are born with extremely immense demonic power, noting to greatly surpass the power of the original Satans, with their power reaching the Gods of the other mythological factions.

Holy energy such as the Light Weapons of Angels is deadly to Demonic creatures, but Devils with higher level of demonic power can develop resilience to holy objects and Light Weapons.
