Archfiend
Chief of demons
An archfiend is a chief fiend or supreme devil—Satan himself, or a demon of the highest rank in hell's hierarchy.
The term extends to any supremely evil person: The dictator was an archfiend responsible for millions of deaths.
The prefix arch- signals preeminence, as in archenemy or archangel.
