Beauregard the Demon
A highly intelligent demon of Xanth who is writing a doctoral thesis on the supremecy of demons over other lifeforms entitled "Fallibilities of Other Intelligent Life in Xanth". Once owed a debt to the Good Magician Humfrey after seeking information from the Good Magician on other lifeforms. He served time in a small vial for Humfrey, answering questions for people. Eventually, he escaped.The Brain Coral
A form of coral kept in stasis in preservative fluids in the land of Xanth. Its goal is to prevent the awakening of the Demon X(A/N)th. It failed. Many people are held, or have been held, in its preservative fluids for eventual release including (Neo-)Sorceress Vadne, Magician Murphy, and Harold Harpy. The Brain Coral was a main character in the book The Source of Magic.Chlorine
The wife of the demon X(A/N)th and mother of Nimbus. She lives in the Nameless Castle.Demon X(A/N)th
The demon whose extended presence created Xanth's magic. He is constantly at battle with Earth, Jupiter, Neptune, and other demons who represent the planets in an astral game of gaining recognition. Earth is currently the most recognized one with Xanth coming dead last because nobody seems to believe in it. X(A/N)th is the star of the 20th Xanth book, Yon Ill Wind, and the 23rd, Xone of Contention. He currently enjoys living in the floating castle with his consort Clorine and son Nimbus. He has also been known to travel in the form of a horrendously ugly donkey-headed dragon called Nimby.Fracto
Also called Cumulo-Fracto-Nimbus, this demon cloud roams the land of Xanth, blowing up storms to cause mischief. Later, he tamed Happy Bottom in the Region of Air and had a daughter, Wynde Tchill.The Gap Dragon
A dragon that lives in the Gap Chasm that runs the length of Xanth. Because the Gap Chasm had a forget spell on it, nobody could remember it and therefore couldn't remember the dragon. Because of this, The Gap Dragon got a lot of prey. In recent years, he escaped from the Chasm and was deaged at the fountain of youth. He then became best friend to Ivy who renamed him Stanley Steamer after something she read about in a book full of silly mundane things that suck up dirt off the floor because The Gap Dragon can only shoot steam, not fire. Because of an accident with Jordan The Barbarian, Stanley was sent far away. He was later found by Jordan The Barbarian, Threnody, Grundy The Golem, Rapunzel, and Snortimer at a Faun and Nymph lake retreat. The Gap Dragon still today protects the Gap Chasm from intruders, catching prey, and always being a faithful friend to the only person who ever tried to befriend him, Princess Ivy. He is married to Stella/Stacey Steamer (Princess Ivy named her Stacey but the Xanth lexicon put it down as Stella), and they have a son named Steven. They alternate guarding the Gap Chasm and watching their son.Happy Bottom
Formerly called Tropical Storm Gladys, Happy Bottom was blown into Xanth from Mundania when the Demon X(A/N)th entered the land of Xanth, stirring out magic dust and causing madness. She was tamed by Fracto later. Their daughter is Wynde Tchill.Jenny Elf and Sammy Cat
