Demona's Second

Demona's second was an unnamed gargoyle in ancient Scotland.

History

Demona's second was an unnamed gargoyle and was probably a member of the Wyvern Clan at one time. He and his mate would produce one of the "Eggs" in the 988 Wyvern rookery that would later hatch on Avalon. It is likely that he and his mate left Wyvern with a group of gargoyles sometime between 988 and 994 to found a new clan.

At some point after that, but before 1020, the new clan was destroyed. This gargoyle, however, managed to survive somehow and by 997 had joined Demona's Clan as Demona's second-in-command.

At the Battle of Rathveramoen, he fought with the rest of his clan against Constantine. When Brother Valmont unleashed his rain of magical arrows, he was almost struck down but his mate shielded him with her own body, scarificing her life to save his.

In the period leading up to Demona's alliance with Macbeth, the clan often raided human food stores and farms to survive, much to the dismay and frustration of Demona's second. In fact, he was one of the only gargoyles in the clan brave enough to mention making peace with the humans in Demona's presence. ("City of Stone" Part One)

In 1040, he survived an attack on the clan in their cave roost by Duncan and his men. The clan was forced to move to a new lair and a new territory even though, as Demona's second pointed out, the hunting there had been good. He was also shocked that Demona remarked that the clan had no other capable leader. ("City of Stone" Part Three)

Shortly thereafter, the clan assisted Macbeth in his battle against Duncan and after they defeated him, Macbeth placed the clan under his protection, hoping for a new golden age between humans and gargoyles.

Unfortunately, only seventeen years later, in 1057, the clan was at war with humans again, this time with Canmore and his English allies. Despite being at least 119 years old (late middle age for a gargoyle), Demona's second continued to fight alongside his clan. Sadly, Demona betrayed Macbeth to Canmore, giving Canmore the opportunity to betray her. Canmore and his men destroyed Demona's second and the rest of the clan, leaving Demona alone. ("City of Stone" Part Four)

Characteristics

Demona's second was a large, powerful gargoyle. He had skin coloring very similar to Goliath's, but lacked hair. He had no brow horns, just standard ridges, but did possess two large horns coming from each side of his head. His wings were similar to Brooklyn's, but had only a single claw at the "wrist" instead of three. He wore a breastplate across his chest and had armor around his forearms, but carried no weapons.

Appearances

Behind the Scenes

Voice Actor: John Rhys-Davies

This character was referred to as "Second" in the scripts for the comics he appears in. Like "Othello," "Desdemona" and "Iago," it is a non-canon name which is never used in the actual comics. Calling him "Second" was probably just simpler than calling him "Demona's Second" when his name had to be typed repeatedly.
