Baraq (バラク), meaning "Lightning (雷)" in Hebrew, also known as King Cloud (王雲), was the Demon of the Sky (天空の悪魔), Demon of Thunder (雷の悪魔), Demon of Lightning (稲妻の悪魔), Demon of Storms (嵐の悪魔), Demon of Hospitality (おもてなしの悪魔) and Demon of Heavens (天の悪魔). He was a demon made to be the Bane of Zeus (ゼウスの災い) or Bane of Jupiter (木星の災い) or Bane of Jove (ジョーブの災い). He encountered Zeus and had a long battle of electrocuting lightning bolts. Eventually Baraq was defeated and killed by the king of the Gods. He would later be revived to fight in the Demonomachy II, where he was seen climbing Mount Olympus towards Holy Grounds. He survived the attacks of the Hippocampi under orders of their father Poseidon, and fought against the gods but was ultimately fell by Eros and Apollo.

## Background

Baraq was born from Zemann and Poriyut, the banes of Cronos and Rhea. He is the second generation of the Demon Banes of the Gods, alongside Bemabatt Leakhor, Akh, Khaqlaut, Nashim, Hasheol and Yam. He bore a number of children, as Satan intended to imitate the Greek Gods to fully secure the possibility of destroying them. As stated by himself, he has been waiting for 3 millenia to kill Zeus ever since he witnessed the formation of the powerful Council of Cat Gods. He idolized the king of the gods and aimed to kill him.

## Personality

Baraq idolized Zeus after he witnessed the defeat of the God-Killer and seeks to destroy Zeus since then. Baraq is extremely malevolent and sinister to the point where he even conspired against Satan himself, wanting to claim the throne of Olympus and make Yahweh to cower before him, which is unlikely though. He takes great joy in teasing others, teasing Zeus thinking he will not escape from his thunderbolt, which sometimes he called as his "wrath". Baraq on the inside however, is a sore loser, never admitting defeat even when facing death. Baraq, similar to Zeus, is very horny and constantly gets in trouble over love.

## Appearance

Baraq is a dark creature, sitting on a golden throne, wearing a golden crown, a dark cape and a strap. His throne is on top of a white cloud with a purple eye, which is the main reason why Baraq has this nickname.

## Abilities

### Electrokinesis

As the Demon of Thunder and bane of Zeus, Baraq could control lightning to an unrivaled degree.

#### Thunderbolts

He is able to generate extremely powerful and fast Thunderbolts that can shatter bricks.

#### Electric Form

In his electric form, where he is electrocuted and surrounded by lightning, he is nigh-impossible to be touched and will be greatly electrocuted if touched. In Twin Shot 2055, it took up a lot of energy for Zeus to be able to drain all of Baraq's lightning energy and it didn't kill the demon.

### Weaknesses

Despite his immense strength, he is still far from unstoppable. Other immortals, especially wind-based gods can defeat him. In Twin Shot 2055, it's true that it took up a lot of energy for Zeus to be able to drain all of Baraq's lightning energy and it didn't kill the demon. However, Baraq is nearly a puny dark creature without his powers as he is killed after his neck was snapped, showing his vulnerability without lightning. In Twin Shot II 2058, he became slightly weaker, as even lesser gods Eros and Apollo felled him.

## Twin Shot

He encountered Zeus and had a long battle of electrocuting lightning bolts. Zeus strategically had the upper hand by draining his bane's electric powers. Eventually Baraq was defeated, but not dead. Zeus decided to spare the former and let the latter's bane to atone for his sins. Baraq, a sore loser, did not admit defeat and was killed by the king of the Gods with his neck snapped.

## Twin Shot II: Good & Evil

The Demons are seen climbing Mount Olympus to reach the Holy Grounds, except for Beelzebub and Esh. Helios, Hermes, Hades, Heracles and some soldiers fought in the defensive line. When Poseidon entered the fray, he blasted through Bemabatt Leakhor's chest killing him. The Hippocampi were then summoned and one was defeated by Baraq. Hades then killed Oqeyanos. Poseidon fought Baraq, but was defeated by being knocked unconscious. Baraq then attempted to kill Zeus, but was blasted away by his thunderbolt. Eros and Apollo of Team Guardian from Five Grand Cardinals then fought over the invasion of the demons, where Baraq was killed by the twin archer gods.
