In [[Ars Magica]], a '''demon''' is any creature from the [[Infernal Realm]]. Statistics for three example demons are given in the [[ArM5]] rule book; many more are described in [[Realms of Power: Infernal]].
In [[real history]], it's pretty clear that the medieval Church believed demons were real. In [[Mythic Europe]], demons are demonstrably real through such powers as [[Sense Holiness and Unholiness]]. Hermetic magic is unreliable at detecting demons due to the Hermetic [[Limit of the Infernal]].
The extent to which demons are prevalent and influence [[Mythic Europe]] is a choice for individual [[Troupe|troupes]] to make for their own [[Saga|sagas]]. A lot of [[Third Edition]] supplements focused heavily on demons and infernal corruption; some might say they over-did it.
