Demon

Demons (鬼) are a group of malevolent creatures that kill and eat humans. The first Demon is said to be Muzan Kibutsuji, and it is from his blood that new demons are made, although this is not absolute, as Tamayo has also been stated to be capable of this.

Description
They are immortal beings that can live centuries. Their diet consists of humans. Demons are able to change their body structure at will, heal their wounds rapidly, and there are also Demons that possess special abilities. They can only be killed by sunlight, and if their heads are cut off from their body using a special blade. They are also repelled by wisteria flower, which is how they keep Demon on the mountain for the Final Selection.

Demons are not born, they start out as humans and once they get demon blood in their systems and then they become demons. Once a human becomes a demon they lose all their memories and develop a murderous instinct. They still retain their personality but it turns into a twisted, dark version. When they are killed, their memories flash before their eyes.

A demons power is dependent on how many humans they eat, this can become from physical changes, as seen with the Hand Demon, or in their Blood Demon Arts, as seen with Rui. Blood Demon Arts are spells demons can cast due to their special blood. The look and abilities of these spells can vary, for example Rui can manipulate sharp thread and Daki can turn into and manipulate special scarfs.
