Marchosias
Marchocias
A wolf with gryphon's wings and a serpent's tail, vomiting fire; then a man's shape.
A strong fighter, faithful to the exorcist, giving true answers to all questions.
He told Solomon that after 1,200 years he hoped to return to the Seventh Throne — “but he is deceived in that hope,” the grimoire adds dryly. Before the fall he was of the Order of Dominations.
Before his fall Marchosias belonged to the angelic Order of Dominions, and he confided to Solomon, who had bound him, his vain hope of returning to the Seventh Throne after 1,200 years. Modern practitioners regard him as a demon of strength, both inner and outer, summoned for resolve and motivation.
The Chronicle
If you're discontent with the world and wish for change, harden your resolve and see at it. In a game of chess, you do not win by mere words, you win by acting. Conquer, defend, and strike, only then will you understand the heart of a victor. Even if you fail, you die honorably.— Marchosias
Marchosias, also known as Marchocias, is the 35th of the 72nd of the Ars Goetia and is a great and mighty Marquis of Hell, commanding thirty legions of demons.
Description
He is depicted as a wolf with gryphon's wings and a serpent's tail that spews fire from his mouth, a she-wolf with griffin wings and a serpent's tail that spit flames, or an ox, and under request of the magician he changes shape into a man.
One of his favourite forms is that of a grand soldier. He is a strong fighter and gives true answers to all questions, and is very faithful to the magician in following his commands.
Overview
Before his fall he belonged to the angelic order of Dominions, and when he was bound by King Solomon who told him that after 1,200 years he holds futile hope that he will return to Heaven ("unto the Seventh Throne"). Marchosias obeys exorcists and the domination of angels.
Marchosias is a demon that’s all about strength. Both inner and outer, he teaches one to use their innate power to help themselves. People summon Marchosias if they need a healthy dose of power and motivation in their life.
Marchosias fights faithfully: he still hopes to return to heaven. Trust one who has something left to lose.
