What Season 6 of Highlander: The Series

Season six opens with Duncan MacLeod back in Paris, ready to take on the role of the Champion once again. Ahriman, a Zoroastrian demon who reappears every thousand years, has already wreaked havoc on his life, and MacLeod has sworn to destroy him. To do so, he relies on Joe Dawson and Father Beaufort, although anyone who helps the Champion also becomes the demon's target.

Throughout the episodes, former enemies also appear, such as Devon Marek, who has held a grudge against MacLeod for centuries, and old friends who need his help, such as Hugh Fitzcairn.
