Achaieral demons are demons that resemble gargoyles.
Description[]
Achaieral demons tend to appear as gargoyles made of stone upon first glance.[1] They have teeth like razors, blade-like talons, and wide, leathery bat-like wings so black that it seemed to blot out the night sky.[2][1]
History[]
In 1857, a number of Achaieral demons attacked the London Institute, waiting for their victims outside its gates. The demons were quickly defeated by the united Shadowhunters and Downworlders. In a way, the attack contributed to the eventual signing of the Accords, as it showed the Shadowhunters and Downworlders that they could work together.[2]
In 1989, an Achaieral demon was sent to France to kill the First Heir's progeny. With a Shax demon, Rosemary was tracked to the Pont des Arts. Though the Shax was neutralized early by the Shadowhunter Céline Montclaire, the Achaieral attacked Rosemary once her companion left. Rosemary was able to defend herself, and Céline intervened and helped her dispatch it.[1]
