Pride demons are incredibly powerful demons that are encountered within Thedas. They can possess any corpse to become a revenant and any dead mage they possess becomes an arcane horror.

There appear to be at least three different variants of the pride demons. The first is the common variant with purple skin fought in most encounters. The second is a dark green skinned version with glowing green eyes (The Baroness in Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening and the last Guardian in the Legacy DLC for Dragon Age II are the only ones of this variant to have been encountered). The last is a dark glowing red skinned version with glowing orange eyes and an affinity to fire which all its techniques are based on (the first Guardian in the Legacy is the only one of this variant to have been encountered).

• An example of this is the pride demon in the quest Asunder. The Fade beast lies dormant until the Warden assembles its body parts, at which point it will attempt to barter for its freedom.
• Another notable pride demon is the one encountered in the Circle Tower when the abominations are unleashed within. Uldred attempted to summon demons under his control but like many before him succumbed to its will and became an abomination himself.
• During The Harrowing in the Mage Origin, another pride demon seems to make an appearance. In the Fade, after the Spirit of Rage is defeated, Mouse will ask for help to leave. If the mage decides against it, he will tell them that they have just passed the true test and will transform into a Pride demon
