==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Equipped with almost every bit of paraphernalia one can think of being owned by a stereotypical [[Demon family|demon]], the monster bears wings, horns, a spiked tail, and a pitchfork. It wears a pair of green gloves and boots. 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. It has particular affinity for explosive magic, being commonly associated with the spell '''[[Kaboom]]'''. In many bestiaries where the Archdemon appears, it is stated that the [[Minidemon]]s 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 color scheme, which is used by the Minidemon in ''V''.

An Archdemon residing in [[Tryan Gully]] tells the {{Hero 8}} and {{Party 8}} that [[David]] was only to be told of his connection to the [[Seven Sages]] when ready.

Archdemon first appears 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.
==={{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.
