Daemon

is a former member of Kara.

Background
Daemon and his older sister were equipped with Shinobi-Ware by Amado in his hopes of bringing down Isshiki Ōtsutsuki's host Jigen. After learning that Daemon and his sister are among the cyborgs with the capabilities to defeat him, Isshiki ordered their destruction. Boro, who was captivated by Ada, had secretly hid the siblings away at one of his hidden establishments.

Personality
Daemon is a very energetic and mischievous child. He enjoys playing with others and can quickly grow attached to certain people. At the same time, he is fiercely protective of his sister, not letting anyone with less than sincere goals about her near and is determined to protect her from anything he deems a threat to her well-being. Likewise, he is very loyal to her orders, willing to keep quiet about things he would like to tell otherwise. Daemon turned out to be sentimental as he got angry after Bug tried to run away without even talking to him. Once engaging in battle, he is very sadistic and remorseless. He enjoys fighting, quickly getting excited when Code pulled him into one, and just as disappointed when Code sent him back away from it. He is very confident in his abilities, considering himself stronger than Jigen, Code, Naruto, Sasuke and also Boruto and Kawaki. With his strength, Daemon wishes to fight strong opponents, and became interested in Himawari when he felt an unspecified intensity coming from her, despite thinking she also appears weak.

Appearance
Daemon is a young boy with short, turquoise hair that has a pink-coloured streaks in it, with purple eyes and yellow pupils and pronounced canine teeth. He wears a red hoodie jacket with star patterns over a turquoise shirt, red shorts tied with a white belt and dark sandals. He also has yellow nail polish on his fingernails and toe nails.

Abilities
As with most members in Kara, Daemon has been modified with Scientific Ninja Tools by Amado. While the true depths of his power are unknown, Amado has noted that his combat abilities exceed Jigen's. Likewise, he easily overpowered Code with his power-limiters removed, and later easily defeated Kawaki despite wielding Isshiki Ōtsutsuki's full power and abilities. He is shown to be rather fast and stealthy, able to instantly sneak out of his pod and catch Code off-guard. He also has advanced taijutsu skill, able to break a grown man's neck with a single kick.

Being infused with DNA from the remains of Shibai Ōtsutsuki, Daemon gained the Shinjutsu to instantly, even without intent or awareness, turn an opponent's attack on him against them. However, this requires Daemon to be touching someone with his hands, even if who he is touching and who is attacking him are not the same person. His ability will extend to the person he is touching. Merely thinking of harming Daemon will trigger the reflection, which scales with the killing intent. Ada considers Daemon the only non-Ōtsutsuki capable of killing her.

Code Arc
After Ada had awoken and formed a partnership with Code, she ordered Bug to awaken Daemon. Daemon quickly jumped out of his stasis pod to ride Code's back, questioning if he is his sister's "new man". He quickly calmed down when Ada assured him that Code was only a new friend and not her type of man. When Boro's guards learned of Code's intrusion, they attacked the cyborgs, only for Daemon to use his ability to reflect their attacks back at them, killing them all.

Later, Daemon quickly began warming up to Code, constantly forcing himself on Code for rides. As Daemon turned his attention to Bug who was trying to escape, Code suddenly struck at the boy with his Claw Marks, which were instantly reflected back on Code. Code explained that he wanted to better understand how Daemon's power worked, explaining that his marks let him teleport to wherever they are. As Daemon found the power cool, Code asked how the boy's power works. While wanting to tell Code, Daemon was forbidden by his sister. While Ada was guiding Code on Kawaki's location, Daemon slept on her lap. He was woken up by her pleas for Code not to kill Kawaki, but she told him to go back to sleep.

When Kawaki activated his new Kāma, granting him access to Isshiki's powers, he began to overwhelm Code, shrinking his Claw Marks to prevent him from escaping. When he was about to blast Code, Code pulled Daemon through the Claw Mark on his face, reflecting Kawaki's attack back at him. This woke Daemon up, just for Code to send him back to Ada. She informed Code that it Kawaki had died, she'd have sent Daemon to kill him.

Daemon rode Code's back as Ada reminded him of the terms of their agreement, displeased with him using Daemon without her permission. She warned him that if she deemed him a hindrance even after having his power limiters lifted, she and Daemon would dispose of him. Later, Code and Ada successfully captured Amado, who Daemon mockingly greeted upon his return. He watched as Amado begged for his life in exchange of lifting the power limiters. When Amado appealed to Ada's interest in Kawaki, she signalled Daemon to stop Code from killing him. When he tried to attack Amado again, Daemon considered Code had to be disposed of. When Ada dissolved their partnership, Code attempted to replace Daemon as her knight, but he maintained the upper hand against Code, even after Bug revealed the caveat of his reflecting ability. After Code retreated with Bug, he jumped on Amado's back as he and Ada continued discussing their positions and Shikamaru's offer. Daemon was confident he could deal with Kawaki, negating Konoha's need of Amado. Amado considered it, but maintained his goal was different, and asked them to go to Konoha, where he'd also mediate for their alliance. After Amado had a phone call with Shikamaru, and Ada threatened to kill him if he didn't help her with Kawaki, Daemon clarified he would be the one killing him. On his way to Konoha, Daemon was startled by Ada's reaction as she spied on his mission briefing to Team 7, and noticed how her heartbeat had quickened when she hugged him. She assured him everything was fine.

Upon arriving in Konoha, he and Ada were greeted by Konoha shinobi. Already aware of Shikamaru's setup, she took off flying, carrying Daemon piggyback with her to their new home. Inside the house, Daemon quickly antagonised and attacked Boruto and Kawaki, knocking them both out. When they woke up, Daemon said he had to make it clear he was stronger than they were, to discourage them from defying himself and Ada. He asked Kawaki if he liked Ada's lap, and Boruto informed Shikamaru through the comm system that Daemon gave them a baptism by fire.

As Amado explained the shinjutsu nature and origins of Daemon's and Ada's abilities, Boruto expressed sceptisim about Daemon's ability, who asked if he wanted to test them. He did not, but Kawaki did, his own killing intent reflected back at him. The next day, Daemon teased Boruto when he asked Ada why picked Kawaki over him. When the boys began arguing, she asked for Sumire and Sarada to join her, as she wanted to talk to girls. While they did, Daemon and Kawaki exchanged insults, and Daemon later lost to Boruto in a video game. When Kawaki caused a commotion while accusing Momoshiki of planning something, Daemon agreed that the Ōtsutsuki don't care about their mission. After Kawaki's departure, he joined Ada and the girls for a shopping trip, riding on Boruto's shoulders, still teasing him over finding him weak and asking if he knew of any strong opponents. Feeling something, he rushed outside to find Himawari, interested in who she was. Learning she was Boruto's sister, he was confused about her weak appearance despite feeling something intense from her. Boruto pulled him off of her, disapproving when he thought Daemon has a crush on her.
