Demon hunter

Demon hunter or demon slayer is a demonology-related historic occupation or folkloric character which specializes in killing demons, monsters, or undead creatures. A demon hunter typically is involved with a deity and angels, and they typically wield religious text, holy water, and relics.

The character type has diverse roots in myths, Abrahamic religions, African magic, Christian media, Classic Chinese Novels, and Japanese urban legend. Variants include other monster hunters, such as the dragonslayer and the vampire hunter.
