Soul of a Demon Usage
- Can be consumed for 20,000 Souls
- Can be used to make Demon's Greataxe or Demon's Fist
Soul of a Demon Locations
- Defeat the Fire Demon in the Catacombs of Carthus. It can be found by hitting the ropes on the wooden bridge in the room just before the High Lord Wolnir boss fight. After the animation ends, you can descend the bridge like a ladder to access a pathway to the demon's room.
Notes
- You can acquire this soul without fighting the demon. When you enter the room where the demon is located, aggro him and lead him up the stairs and onto the platform beside the chest. Strike the chest, and roll off the ledge. The mimic will defeat the demon(most likely). Alternatively, you can bait the demon to attack the sleketons, and the skeletons will crowd the demon.
Trivia
- This is one of the few major enemies which can normally be attacked by other enemies. Both the mimic and the respawning skeletons can aggro onto the demon and deal significant damage to him. In terms of lore, this suggests one possible way the demon race has been almost destroyed. As the chaos flame weakened, the world the demons controlled turned against them.

It seems that Ludleth has the option to craft the transposed weapons made from the Demon's Soul after beating the demon that you fight with Siegward in the Undead Settlement. Is this a bug, or is there a way to get the Demon's Soul from that earlier demon fight?

ds1 and ds2: primordial chaos is a terrible and unstoppable thing we must fight to barely contain it's spread
ds3: Demons were born of the Chaos Flame, but the flame has not survived, and the demons are a dying race.

Lol the skeletons beat the heck out of this thing for like 2 seconds. So I spammed 5, maybe 6 lightning spears and it was dead on NG5.

You can aggro him to walk up the stairs and he won't attack while walking back down. Worked for me!

From the Farron covenant room bonfire, go all the way up and there's another demon. This one doesn't shoot fireballs, but instead spits rocks.

He can't fit through the door back towards the bridge, so you can aggro him up the stairs and just use a bow or spells to kill him while standing behind the doorway.

Hes really not that hard, its the skeletons that spawn in what cause the issue, for me anyway.

I killed the Fire Demon but only received the Fire Gem, i did not receive the Soul of a Demon? Bug perhaps?

it is not dropped from old demon king, but instead from the demon guarding the entrance to that area, after the broken bridge

I got this item before the bonfire after the severed bridge. The demon there dropped it.
If you can manage to get the storyteller's staff you can bait his aggro and run down to the bonfire, then poison him untill he dies. Ez demon soul
