The Stray Demon in Dark Souls is a powerful, fiery foe encountered early in the game, just after the player exits the Undead Asylum. This large, mutated demon attacks with massive swings of its club and deadly ground slams. Its slow but powerful moves require careful dodging, especially as the battle takes place in a cramped arena. The Stray Demon serves as a reminder of the game’s relentless difficulty, forcing players to learn how to manage both timing and stamina early on. It’s a significant challenge for those unprepared for its sheer strength.
