==Summary==
Melchom is mentioned as a demon in the Dictionnaire Infernal. Melchom was formerly held as a major deity by the Ammonites (a people who occupied an area of the country known today as Jordan) until he and his people were chased out of the area by King David and the Israelites.
After being dethroned he was regarded as a lesser demon, often depicted with a wallet, taking up the office of the paymaster to the servants of Hell. It is not known exactly what his duties are from being the comptroller of the chamberlains, but it believed that he is the one handing out the paychecks to the public workers of Hell. The rest of his duties remain a mystery. He possibly holds some connection to Moloch.
==Appearance==
Melchom has the appearance of a young adult man with tanned skin and a lean physique. He has short and messy white hair, and blue-and-gold gradient eyes. He has gold stud earrings, and two silver rings on his ring and pinky finger on his right hand.
He wears an opened brown-and-white aviator jacket with black details and cuffs, a simple black shirt underneath, skinny denim jeans held up by a leather belt, with a keychain of feathers attached to it. He also wears mid-calf boots with white soles and feathered inside, with said feathers sticking out of the openings, and a pair of square, orange shades.
==Personality==
Melchom is a mysterious archdemon, as not many information regarding him are known to others, both mundane and supernatural alike. Even many demons and devils working in the Marlon Legion have little to no knowledge regarding their master, despite his reputation as the paymaster of hell, though some of them have described him as a generous employer.
According to Alastor, he is the definition of a "workaholic demon", with a love for working and paperwork that freaks even other archdaemon out.
He is also mentioned by Azazel to be a great gambler, even back when he was an angel of the Fifth Heaven.
==History==
Melchom, formerly known by his angelic name Melchromiel, was one of the Cherubim who worked with the Grigori on the Fifth Heaven. He was specifically noted to have worked as the Grigori's treasury at one point and mostly dealed with their financial problems. In the Heavenly War, he abandoning his position to follow Lucifer and was promptly banished into the Abrahamic Underworld by the Archangel Michael for his rebellion.
In the underworld, he became a part of the Marlon Legion and quickly rose to the position of Mammon's right-hand. He also took on the role of the paymaster and deal with handing out the paychecks for the numerous devils and demons employed by the infernal courts.
Like many of his brethren, he was one of the infamous archdaemon who got recorded in biblical texts. He was worshipped as the god of the Ammonites and ruled over the tribe of Gad until he was chased out by King David and the Israelites.
At some point in time, part of his essence was captured by the Canaanite gods and was used to create a clone of him named Moloch. After he was slain by prophets and was banished into the Abrahamic Underworld, he was adopted by Melchom as his son.
He was mentioned to be one of the archdaemon who didn't participate in the Great War, with Alastor implied he was too focused in working that he didn't know a war between the Three Factions had happened.
