==Historical Background==
In demonology, Malthus (other spellings: Halphas, Malthas, Malthous) is an Earl of Hell, commanding 26 legions of demons, who is said to have a rough voice when speaking. Malthus builds towers and fills them with ammunition and weapons, an armorer of sorts. He is also said to send his legions into battle, or to places designated by higher commanding demons. He is depicted in the shape of a crow or a raven, the anthropomorphic symbol of death and decay.
