Daimon (

)

Name Origin - Daimon is the Greek derivative for the term demon. In this sense the term "demon" means "replete with knowledge." The ancient Greeks thought there were good and bad demons called 'eudemons' and 'cacodemons.' The term 'daimon' means "divine power," "fate" or "god." Daimons, in Greek mythology, included deified heroes. They were considered intermediary spirits between men and the gods. Good daimons were considered to be guardian spirits, giving guidance and protection to the ones they watched over. Bad daimons led people astray. Socrates said he had a life-time daimon that always warned him of danger and bad judgment, but never directed his actions. He said his daimon was more accurate than omens of either watching the flights or reading the entrails of birds, which were two respected forms of divination of the time. - from Encyclopedia Mythica

Description - Daimon were the creatures that were called upon by the villains of the Death Busters in season three of Sailormoon (Pretty Soldier SailormoonS). Each daimon was an individual with different strenghts, weaknesses, and yes, personalities. There were a few different types of Daimon. The first remained in their eggs until Kaolinite found the target where she would release it. The egg would join with an item close to the target and attack when the target came in contact with it. Others were kept in boxes already joined to items. Both Eudial and Mimete would release them in this fashion.
