Greater Daemons are the mightiest of a Chaos god's followers and are rightly feared as such. They are second only to their Chaos god in power and have authority over all the other Daemons that serve the same god. They are haughty, arrogant, and malicious to a point beyond mortal comprehension. They are even woshipped by some Human cults as if they were Gods, but only the very powerful or the very foolish attempt to summon them. It is impossible to generalise further about their natures, as they are an extremely varied group of entities. The gods each have their own types of Daemons.

- In realspace, Greater Daemons manifest as huge, terrifying creatures capable of slaying scores of warriors and destroying even main battle tanks. They have strange, sorcerous powers drawn from the psychic energy of the Warp and are virtually impervious to mortal weapons. Summoning such a creature demands a high price, for it takes a tremendous amount of psychic energy for a Greater Daemon to achieve corporeality in the material universe. The price is always a sacrifice, the death or possession of a living being that acts as a gateway from the Immaterium into the material realm. The rampant energy of the daemon passing through into the material universe inevitably destroys this host. As such, the sacrifice is not usually the one performing the summoning.
- Greater daemon is a type of monster in ADOM. They are quite powerful mid-to-late game monsters that can teleport, breathe fire and drain PC's stats in melee range. The latter power is a particularly frustrating effect, so the PC should try to kill a greater daemon quickly — preferably from afar — before it can use that spell. Like most demons, greater daemons are immune to fire. As of version 1.2.0 greater daemons are able to summon quasits and lesser daemons. Unlike other summoners, they will always create a single creature per ability use.

| - A daemon with the power to create lesser beings of its kind, they have great powers of magic and manipulation on this plane. They usually take a humanoid shape ranging in size from a large human to a large troll, depending on the powers it manifests. They seek the destruction of lawful beings and communities, usually to specific ends as part of a barter for power.

| Description
| - Greater daemon is a type of monster in ADOM. They are quite powerful mid-to-late game monsters that can teleport, breathe fire and drain PC's stats in melee range. The latter power is a particularly frustrating effect, so the PC should try to kill a greater daemon quickly — preferably from afar — before it can use that spell. Like most demons, greater daemons are immune to fire.
As of version 1.2.0 greater daemons are able to summon quasits and lesser daemons. Unlike other summoners, they will always create a single creature per ability use.
In Thrundarr's fifth quest, a greater daemon will appear in Dwarftown and the PC must kill it. Stronger than most of the inhabitants of the city as well as most of the monsters around that general area, the greater daemon will also fight with and easily kill many of the residents. PCs aspiring to complete a special ending must make sure it doesn't kill the demented ratling before learning the secret of the stone circle.
