I'm thinking about making a sword that can one-hit kill a demon or any creature I choose is this possible. If so how?

Tricky... I'm not sure you could do it with a sword.

You could make a weapon-quality material that is just absurdly good in general, something as dense as slade but sharper than adamantine, for instance, and that would make it quite easy to one-hit-kill a demon or any other creature, but I suspect you're wanting something that would one-shot a particular creature instead of just a general creature.

The other option wouldn't work with melee weapons, and would be difficult to apply to demons, but would work with ranged weapons. You'd make a metal which melted at above room temperature but below body temperature and apply a nasty syndrome, like rapid full-body necrosis, massive bleeding, total paralysis, and so on, to it. If I remember correctly, when a weapon made out of the material gets stuck into a creature, it then gets warmed to its melting point by their body heat, and the molten metal then causes the syndromes. You'd have to list every demon under the syndrome's affected creatures (tricky, but not impossible), and it would really only work with ammunition since they're the only things that get stuck in long enough to melt, since shots only get stuck in instead of breaking occasionally it wouldn't work out to a one-hit-kill every time, it would have a somewhat delayed effect between the working shot and the syndrome actually taking effect, and it wouldn't work on inorganic demons, but at least you'd have demon-slaying ammunition.

Theres a lot of problems with that. Not every creature has a body temperature, especialy demons which can be made of all sorts of weird things.

Also, necrosis and bleeding wouldnt do much harm to a clear glass creature. You will also have to seperately target each demom and titan type to be affected by the poison, as they dont have a creature class token to target (meaning, without this organic demons too are unaffected). You will also have to adjust it for the number of demons/titans you have in your world, as a difference means either some are unaffected or errorlog spam.

Possibly you could mod in some weapon with insane velocity multiplier, insane sharpness and mass (note these values are capped at some point though) and pretty much sever or mangle anything in one hit, but no matter how hard you hit something in its left pinky toe, its not going to kill it in one shot.
