72 SEALS FROM THE LESSER KEY OF SOLOMON [2,048 × 1,519 PX.]

Belial is a priest, (technically) a vampire, and a demon. What a talented boy! Character Bio below the cut!

Belial is the 68th spirit recorded in The Lesser Key of Solomon. He is ranked as a king in command of 130 legions of demons and spirits. He was the second to have fallen after Lucifer, is a priest of the Cult of Bael, and is the head of Hell’s Vices as Lord of Iniquity. With Naamah, he sired the first creature to be conceived with a hunger for blood, making him the Father of Vampires. One of his titles, “Worthless One”, was given to him as a reminder that he has no place or value in Heaven. Having carved himself into a highly proficient killer, Belial’s reputation was built from blood and violence. He is a merciless and unyielding force, which is often attributed to his association with the element of earth. He demands commitment and dedication from those who work with him. Harsh consequences are placed on his devotees that fall short of this. Belial is a known sadist, yet his bloodshed is partially motivated by his desire to not only fortify his domain in Hell but also the coregency he is a part of. As a fallen Power, his need to defend the people that he cares for is above everything. For those that he is close to, Belial is incredibly patient and protective. He is very selective with who he allows into his circle, and seeing any vulnerability from him is a sign of trust.

Fans of the Goetia and the Pseudomonarchia will recognize Bael in this cameo from Nights #11!

A demon king ruling over 66 legions in the East, Bael has a hoarse voice and can make people invisible. He is said to have the face of a man, a cat, and a toad- often all 3 at once!

Here are the names and sigils of the 72 chief demons of Hell from The Lesser Key of Solomon, in case any of you need to get ahold of any of them.

I mean Republicans will probably start honest-to-god witch trials again once they run out of books to ban and pregnant women to jail, so we might as well earn it.

Prince and President, Gaap

"His office is to make men insensible or ignorant; as also in philosophy to make them knowing"

"He can cause love or hatred"

"He appeareth when the sun is in one of the southern signs"

Source: the lesser key of solomon, ars goetia, translation by Dr. L. W. De Laurence.

Personally I interpret this to mean Gaap is a being of great duality, hence why I depicted his eyeball-sun with its opposite, frost.

Woah, it's King Beleth from the Ars Goetia

[masterblackoak]

   “I am not concerned to deny the objective reality of all ‘magical’ phenomena; if they are illusions, they are at least as real as many unquestioned facts of daily life; and, if we follow Herbert Spencer, they are at least evidence of some cause.

   Now, this fact is our base. What is the cause of my illusion of seeing a spirit in the triangle of Art?

   Every smatterer, every expert in psychology, will answer: ‘That cause lies in your brain.’”

Thinking about maybe doing a Buer design that gives him spider-like elements since that's what the multiple legs makes me think of

A sort of spider body, goat legs, lion head type thing

Aamon is the 7th spirit of the Ars Goetia. He holds the position of a Marques and commands 40 infernal legions. He brings reconciliation and knows all things that are to come.
