Armaros was among the demons that fought against the first Shadowhunter, Jonathan, on Brocelind Plain.
History[]
Armaros spent a millennium trapped in a Pyxis kept in the London Institute, before it was stolen by Nate Gray for Axel Mortmain. Armaros was then freed by Mortmain and bound to an automaton to become part of his Shadowhunter-destroying armies. With its life tuned to Mortmain's, it was obliterated, along with the other demonic automatons, when Tessa Gray Changed into the angel Ithuriel and killed Mortmain.[1]
Appearances[]

Etymology[]
The name Armaros means "cursed one" or "accursed one" and is likely a Greek alteration of Armoni, possibly an Aramaic name, closely related with Armoniel—the name used for Armaros in some translations of The Book of Enoch.
