Buer

Appears as

Appears in Sagittarius; famously drawn as a lion's head upon five goat legs set like a wheel.

Office

Teaches philosophy, logic and the virtues of herbs, heals all distempers in man and gives good familiars.

Notes

The wheel-like body is entirely Le Breton's invention (1863): the text says only that he appears “in Sagittary.” The engraving became one of the most recognisable demonic images ever printed.

Apocrypha

The wiki reckons him a fallen Cherub who, before the rebellion, was among the angels arranging the stars into constellations. He is compared to the centaur Chiron and the Japanese yokai Wanyudo, and local legend further makes him mentor to the demon knight Sparda in matters of philosophy and moral codes.
