That's right—these demon hunters fed on demons.
Such things were actually not uncommon in the Abyss. For example, there were the Demon-Hunting Spiders created by Lolth, as well as the Demon Hunter Spiders created by the two-headed baboons.

Once these frost giants locked onto a Tanar'ri demon as their target, they entered a state similar to a one-on-one duel. Attacks from anyone other than their designated target immediately had their effects halved—and all attack effects were halved, whether
