Demons in the setting

Xex

Mongoose
Its been quite a while since I've read the books. Does anyone recall if there were any demons in the setting? Now I don't mean Vordaks or Helghasts, but 'normal' demons.

AFAIR the only thing that comes close would be an Agraashi, which I always took to be Dever's take on Balrogs. Is there anything else that would qualify as a demon? Also, is there any instance of a demon being summoned by a sorceror or cener druid, or something like that?

Any setting scholars here can help me out?
 
SPOILER (MAJOR)

Okay here's my take. I'd say JD's demons are evil rulers of Plane of Darkness and Daziarn and their minions:

Agarash the Damned & Demon Horde of Lissan Plain (Grey Star Book 4 & Lone Wolf Books 29+ I assume).
Kleasa - Shadow Demon Grey Star 2
Vurnos 330 bk 1.
Ice Demons of Vagadyn Gate trapped in M'Lare bowls (Bk 3/Kalte)
Daemonak in Temple of Maakan Bk 4 & Nza-Pok realm bk 20.
"Demonlord" Tagazin, the Jackal creature Roark calls for aid from. (Mentioned bk 6, Isle of Ghosts Bk 10, Ixia Bk 17 and poss his realm where you meet the Kunae book 20).
Agtah & Chaos Master Bk 11/Grey Star 3.
Xuzargha is a Cenerese god of pestilence 265 bk 13 and Cadak has a gold statue of a demonic girl, like a succubus.
Demoness Shamath bk 16 & 20.
Wolf's Bane (a Javek like Grey Star 3?)/Darklords/Ixiataaga - I'd say not demons.
Bk 20 - Nza-'Pok, Kunae, Huan'zhor, Avarvae the Tormentress, Kekataag the Avenger, Nemagog, Tzor Keeper of evil souls.
Zhorkan the Soultaker bk 24/25
Shom'zaa bk 26.

That's off the top of my head in a hurry, probably more. Some are debatable. Is Sejanoz demonic? He is like a 3000 year old vampire.
 
(Knew I'd forget some)

Zantaz is the warrior god of the drakkarim on the front of bk 20, Red Fox.

Bk 13 Exterminus summoned by Cadak from the tapestry is described as demonic, as depicted on Mongoose's edition cover.

Hope this helps.
There's lots of summoned creatures/those coming through shadow gates, etc. Lavas and the Dragons/Vaxagore bk 18 aren't what I'd think of as demonic but the Tzoog from bk 22 could be. The Xanon (Crocadile Centaurs) from bk 27 seem demonic too.
