** Charlie, despite being the daughter of Lucifer--himself a FallenAngel instead--normally seems mostly human aside from some colouration. However, when angry she grows red horns ''and'' her sclera turn red, dominating her colour palette even more than the red suit typically does. She also has the cloven hoofs associated with the trope--she's just wearing shoes.

** Lucifer himself shows where Charlie gets it--while his feet remain unseen, in ''his'' demonic form, he shares both the horns and tail. However, red is only a secondary component of his colour scheme compared to white--fitting for a FallenAngel.

* DependingOnTheArtist, [[OurGargoylesRock gargoyles]] and [[OurGoblinsAreDifferent goblins]] can look like this, even if they aren't necessarily demonic. It's rather ironic for gargoyles, as they were originally created to [[DarkIsNotEvil frighten demons/evil spirits]] away. It's much more fitting for goblins though, as the word "goblin" is derived from the Greek word "Kobalos" which means "rogue" or "evil spirit".
