Balrons

Balrons, the kings of the Daemons! There is no foe more fear inspiring than these rulers of hell and darkness, even Dragons fear them. Their sheer presence is enough to let life around them wither and die. Normally, Balrons command hordes of lower Daemons into battle, but when they go into battle themselves, they are nearly unbeatable. Capable of extremely strong magic, equipped with tough skin and much strength, the Balron is a horrible enemy, to be avoided at all costs.

Thankfully, only rarely are they seen in our lands.

After their first appearance in Ultima I, Balrons appeared in Ultima II, Ultima III and Ultima IV, after that, they didn't appear anymore, which is curious. However, when remembering the Slasher of Veils in Ultima Underworld I, Balrons do still seem to exist, but mostly send their underlings into battle.

Notable examples

 * The Slasher of Veils in Ultima Underworld I. This Daemon, while not explicitly stated, is because of its believable high power almost with deadly certainty a Balron. The Avatar has to use a lengthy ritual to banish it into the Void. Otherwise, all of Britannia would perish. Since no mortal spell or weapon could kill it. Armageddon could kill it, which most likely was a bug.

Trivia

 * Balrons are clearly inspired by Balrogs, from the works of J.R.R. Tolkien.
