Malphas

Appears as

A crow, then a man; he speaks with a hoarse voice.

Office

Builds houses and high towers, brings to knowledge the thoughts of enemies, gives good familiars — but deceives those who sacrifice to him.

Notes

He receives sacrifices “kindly and willingly” — and then deceives the giver: one of the grimoire's few explicit warnings against sacrifice.

Apocrypha

According to the wiki, Malphas served as an angel under Samael and fell with him in the War in Heaven; when Pandemonium was founded he was made a Great President of Hell. He alone kept his old allegiance intact after the fall, remaining Satan's second-in-command.

Malphas gladly receives sacrifices, and gladly deceives those who bring them. An offering is not a sacrifice — the difference matters.
