Just like the demons in the Robert E. Vardeman's four books that were
collected under the title of `The Jade Demon Quartet' (which was good in
parts, IMHO). And, come to think of it, very like the Great Powers
in a game system I designed a few years ago (currently collecting
dust on a shelf in my study; but one day...).

Might be worth a read.

I think this idea of demons is more oriental; I remember the demons in
the Japanese TV series `Monkey'. (`Come on out of there, demon.' [Bangs
on boulder that blocks entrance.] `Come on out, you ... poofter!')
