**Phenex** is the 37th demonic spirit of the Ars Goetia summoned by King Solomon and a Great Marquis of Hell.

## Overview

Formerly a Throne, Phenex is a member of the Ars Goetia, one of the 72 demon nobles summoned by the biblical King Solomon. She is described as singing with the voice of a child, as well as being an excellent poet, teacher of the sciences, and singer. In particular, she is notable for swinging sweet melodies to the person who summons her and has at times converse in rhymes, and can be greatly obedient to them. Nonetheless, the conjurer (and their companions if they are not alone) must be warned to not to hear her signing until they ask her to take a human shape, which the demon supposedly does after a certain amount of time as her singing in her true form is very harmful to human ears.

Interestingly, Phenex doesn't seem to be particularly fond of her status as a demon and wishes to return to Heaven after 1,200 years and regain her position as a Throne, but she is deceived in this hope. This makes her stand as out as one of the more penitent demons in Hell. However, another story has her to be a Cambion child of a Phoenix residing in Phoenix Mountain before finding herself in front of Lucifer who turn her in a full demon. If this is her true story, it is unclear how this connects to her desire to return to Heaven.

She commands over 20 legions of demons in Hell, with the leaders of the 20 legions serving being named. Their names are Gizrallat, Gothon, Astrat, Ergarun, Ageez, Zargor, Zulgath, Turdas, Oleveth, Xagros, Digrazon, Zulgis, Dastriros, Melvurth, Enidro, Istarfi, Uminzu, Yirzun, Ramdur, Salduir and Alduin.

## Appearance

She mainly appears as a phoenix bird, that sings sweetly in a child's voice yet is harmful to humans, although she can also take on a more human-like form.

## Personality

Phenex is very obedient to the conjurer and will fulfills all commands well. Phenex has the futile hope that she will return to the seventh throne in 1,200 years.

## Powers and Abilities

Aside from the standard abilities displayed by the Ars Goetia, Phenex is a demon governing death and rebirth, seen in a similar fashion to the Phoenix. As such, it is capable of reviving by itself after being killed.

Phenex's best ability is the use of fire and anything related to pyrokinesis. She has the ability make fire bend to her will, whether it be stove fire, bonfire, whatever is related to the use of fire itself she can use it. She can even heat water just by using her hands. She can also use this in her human form. She can turn into a Phoenix herself and give out an ear-piercing screech or even use sound itself against her opponents. With her demonic self, she can easily absorb martial arts teachings and abilities

He can teach all of the wonderful sciences, is an excellent user of poetry, and possess a siren’s voice, and so the magician must take precautions not to be seduced by it. Phenex can fly whether as a Phoenix or not.
