Caim · Caym
A thrush at first, then a man carrying a sharp sword, who seems to answer in burning ashes or coals of fire.
Gives understanding of the voices of birds, bullocks, dogs and waters, and true answers of things to come.
“A good disputer,” formerly of the Order of Angels. The name is linked to the biblical Cain. Le Breton drew him as a dandified thrush with a sabre.
The wiki plays on the likeness of his name to Cain's: the demon is equated with the biblical fratricide, though in a quoted passage Caim himself loftily dismisses the kinship. He is also said to have once encountered Martin Luther. The article adds that his title of President echoes the presiding officer of a college or convocation, the only pre-modern use of the term.
The Chronicle
I am fully aware that Cain and I share similar names. Cain was but a silly fool who was unaware he was but part of a cycle that is currently in its longest loop yet. The cycle will finish its loop and loop all over again. It is inevitable.— Caim.
Caim is a Great President of Hell, ruling over thirty legions of demons.
Overview
Much detail is offered: he is a good disputer, gives men the understanding of the voices of birds, bullocks, dogs, and other creatures, and of the noise of the waters too, and gives true answers concerning things to come.
It is said that demon encountered Martin Luther at some point.
Description
He is depicted in 19th and 20th century occultist illustrations as appearing in the form of the black bird called a thrush, but soon he changes his shape into a man that has a sharp sword in his hand. When answering questions he seems to stand on burning ashes or coals.
The title 'President' of Hell would suggest a parallel with the presiding officer of a college or convocation, which are the only pre-modern uses of the term.
