Gaap
Tap · Goap
In human shape, going before four great and mighty kings, when the Sun is in the southern signs.
Teaches philosophy and the liberal sciences, causes love or hatred, delivers familiars out of the custody of other magicians, and carries men swiftly between kingdoms.
One of the four “chief” spirits (with Belial, Beleth and Asmoday); he can steal familiars from rival magicians. The grimoire records that necromancers offered him sacrifices.
Before the War in Heaven Gaap belonged to the angelic Order of Powers (Potentates). Tradition holds that he was first conjured by Noah's son Ham together with Beleth, and he is also linked to necromancers. He is besides one of the four cardinal spirits — of the south in the Lesser Key of Solomon, of the west in the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum — alongside Ziminiar, Amaymon and Corson.
