Bael
Baal · Baell


A cat, a toad, a man — or all three heads at once; he speaks hoarsely.
Grants the power of becoming invisible.
The first spirit of the Goetia, ruling in the East. The name derives from the West Semitic god Baʿal (“lord”), a chief deity of Canaan whom later demonology recast as an infernal king.
The wiki casts Bael as a fallen Cherub who sided with Lucifer in the War in Heaven; according to the Zohar he once ranked equal to the archangel Raphael. Astarte is named as his consort and Mephistopheles as his son, and he stood among Hell's foremost kings before being eclipsed by Belial. He descends from the Canaanite fertility god Baal ("the lord") and is likened to Zeus, Jupiter and Enlil; per Rudd he is opposed by the Shem angel Vehuiah, while the Grand Grimoire places him under Lucifuge Rofocale.
Bael takes payment from those who wish to disappear. Don't be surprised when people stop noticing you.
