The '''Archdemon''' is a monster in the series.
 
==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
 
Archdemons are large, bulky bipedal demons with pinkish-purple skin, a large pair of wings on their back, a pair of horns on their heads, and a pointy tail. It wears a pair of green gloves and boots and wields a pitchfork. These monsters are usually a force to be reckoned with; capable of dealing heavy physical hits, but also casting advanced offensive magics to destroy its opponents. It has a particular affinity for explosive magic, being commonly associated with the spell '''[[Kaboom]]'''. In the monster descriptions of the archdemon from various games, it is stated that the [[minidemon|minidemons]] are the juvenile forms of archdemons even though, with the exception of {{V}}, their colours do not match up. The [[imp]], however, has a purple colour scheme, which is used by the minidemon in ''V''.
Equipped with almost everything you can think of on a stereotypical demon, the [[Archdemon]] (originally Bullwong), bears wings, horns, a spiked tail, and a pitchfork. With stats to match its bulky purple body, these monsters are usually a force to be reckoned with; capable of dealing heavy physical hits, but also casting advanced offensive magics to destroy its opponents.<br />

}}*A friendly archdemon residing in [[Tryan Gully]] informs the party that [[David]] was only to be told of his connection to the [[Seven Sages]] when ready.
 
==={{DQ10}}===
Archdemons first appear in Version 1.0 of the game in the boss battle against [[Nelgel]]. After taking a certain amount of damage, he will summon a pair of archdemons and a [[Belial]] to fight against the adventurers. They can deflect attacks with their pitchforks and have their familiar ability to cast [[Kaboom]], which has a high chance of going [[Critical_Hit#Spells|haywire]] when they are [[enraged]]. Starting with Version 4.0, archdemons gained a [[Rarefied monster|rarefied]] version in the form of the [[dessert demon]].
 
==={{DQDai}}===
Archdemons appear as part of the Dark Army, typically as the personal guard of Dark Commander [[Hadlar]]. When Hadlar confronts the heroes on Valge Island, there are individual archdemons seen wielding flails instead of their usual pitchforks. In the 2020 anime series, these flail-wielding demons now have blue skin and wear purple gloves and boots. They appear to be stronger than their pink-skinned counterparts.

|in-game-description=A mightly muscular monster with a distinctly menacing bent. Some claim that archdemons are simply adult imps, though this theory remains unproven. Archdemons do not have any special attacks, but they are extremely strong both offensively and defensively and have an enormous number of HP. You will definitely take a lot of damage while battling one of these, so be sure to heal yourself on a regular basis. Challenging as it is, defeating an archdemon will earn you an huge amount of experience, so it's worth seeking them out if you're trying to level up quickly.
