Demon Tribe

Skyward Sword

These main antagonists are evil magic users who rule the land beneath the clouds. This group seeks to capture Zelda for their leader apparent, Lord Ghirahim. His main goal is to resurrect his master, Demise. At the base of Eldin Volcano, the Mogma tell Link that a bunch of shady "guys in red" have entered the volcano where Zelda is supposedly hidden. This is likely a reference to the demon tribe, since Ghirahim wears a red cloak and they are after Zelda.

There is much speculation on whether this group of beings is related to one or more other races, tribes, or groups. Ghirahim's magic greatly resembles that of the Twili, whose ancestors were said to have sought control over Hyrule before the events of Ocarina of Time. It becomes clear that the demon tribe consists mainly of Bokoblins and Moblins (both in a number of various forms and types), with Ghirahim as one who can conjure them up at will.
