Asmodeus

Asmodeus is a demon in the series.
==History==
Asmodeus, also known as Asmodai, Ashmadia or Ashmedai, is a king of demons and earthly spirits mostly known from the deuterocanonical Book of Tobit. The demon is also mentioned in some Talmudic legends, for instance, in the story of the construction of the Temple of Solomon. He was supposed by some Renaissance Christians to be the king of the nine Hells. Asmodeus is also referred to as one of the seven princes of Hell. In Binsfeld's classification of demons, each one of these princes represents one of the seven deadly sins (pride, lust, envy, sloth, greed, gluttony and wrath) with Asmodeus representing the sin of lust; he is therefore responsible for twisting people's sexual desires. It is said that people who fall to Asmodeus' ways will be sentenced to an eternity in the second level of hell. He is also a demon of lechery, jealousy, anger and revenge.
As Asmoday, he is the 32nd demonic spirit of the Ars Goetia, he is a great king, strong and powerful. He appears with three heads, the first like a bull, the second like a man and the third like a ram. He also appears with a serpent's tail, belching or breathing fire out of his mouth and his feet are webbed like a goose. He sits on an infernal dragon carrying a lance and flag in his hands. He is first and foremost under the power of Amaymon and when summoned, the summoner must be standing with his cap off, for if it is on he will deceive them and reveal all of their doings to others. He teaches the art of arithmetic, geometry, astronomy and other handicrafts. He also gives full and true answers to your commands and can render a man invisible, along with showing the place where treasures lie. He governs 72 legions of inferior spirits.
Asmodeus is said to become the second husband of Lilith after God castrated and imprisoned her first husband, Samael. Asmodeus is either a ruthless brutal monster or a mischievous demon endowed with a playful and satirical genius. His form as an angel is Asmodel, the Angel of April and Patience who rules the Zodiacal sign of Taurus.
