History

White-eyed demons were among the oldest of the old demons, predating the Princes and Knights of Hell.[1] There were a total of two known white-eyed demons, Lilith and Alastair. Lilith was the first demon to be created, her soul having been stripped of its humanity and twisted by the fallen archangel Lucifer as an act of spite against God.[2] Due to her status as the first demon, she is the last of the 66 Seals, with her death breaking the last seal and releasing Lucifer from his cage, where he was imprisoned for the creation of demons.[3]

Alastair may be the second demon ever created. He has a mysterious past, but it is implied to be almost as long as Lilith's. He considers the centuries-old black-eyed demon Ruby to be "young" when compared to himself.[4] He was considered the "Grand Inquisitor" in Hell. Alastair also claimed to be an "old friend" of Death's,[5] who had been imprisoned since Biblical times.[6]
