Bal Lost

He is one of the demons belonging to the court of Satan (Judeo-Christian), he is a gatekeeper from hell who collects souls from those who have broken a pact with himself or with the devil. Bal is fearsome and has power and control over hell, his goal is to bring souls into his domain or enslave the spirits, he makes demands for revenge and help in employment matters, but he has no power over fertility, it's not his domain, he does these things in exchange for a soul for him to take to hell, can be the summoner/beggar himself or another person through human sacrifice, Bal has an appreciation for innocent souls (newborns and toddlers) a common thing among demons who serve Satan (Judeo-Christian).

## Temperament

It takes great care to deal with Bal Lost as it is a very aggressive and angry demon, has a strong temper and is demanding. When angry, challenged or has an agreement broken by a human, Bal usually takes revenge very aggressively, which can cause the person an accident that can be mild to generate a warning or a serious accident as punishment, he can also cause the person's death in some more extreme cases and even collecting the person's soul, but this is more difficult to happen if there is no agreement (give me such a thing and in exchange I offer you my soul).

Bal Lost likes blood, alcohol and a lot of pepper, the foods made for him are always spicy or salty, Bal doesn't like offerings made in public places and prefers to have his offerings made in the summoner's own house or in a satanic temple.

## Powers

Bal has power over hell, he can take or take someone out of there, he is responsible for creating someone's personal hell or even casting them into traditional Christian hell full of fire, but Bal Lost prefers to keep them in their own nightmares in a personal hell he usually tends to be pretty creative about it. Bal can completely ignore the power of a spirit binding house (a haunted house that holds spirits trapped) and can freely lead them to hell by taking them out of the house.

Bal has power in aspects of the human professional area and can exert influence to get a beggar to get a job or a promotion in exchange for something, just as he can get the beggar's enemy to be fired from the job in exchange for something. Bal has great strength for revenge, being able to punish the beggar's enemies, but hardly results in death but it can happen.

## Limitations and Weaknesses

He cannot take to hell a soul that has already departed to the spirit world, he can only take the soul of those who were offered or killed by him, but since the soul is taken to the beyond by another gatekeeper of the spirit world, Bal does not have control over that.

His weaknesses are:

* **Banishment spells:** Warlocks and witches are able to temporarily expel Bal Lost in a location using a banishment spell which he cannot work around.

* **Conjurist protection:** A conjurist who is suffering a Bal Lost attack performed by an enemy can perform a protective ritual against it, thereby protecting and purifying it from harm.

* **Pagan Gods:** Bal Lost is inferior and less powerful than pagan gods, if someone he is trying to attack is protected by a god, Bal would be risking a lot to harm that person.

* **Full moon nights:** Bal Lost is very weak on full moon nights and his power is extremely reduced making him practically impotent and unable to exert influence in the physical world. The full moon radiates the power and energy of the Goddess Ariel, which eventually interferes with Bal Lost's power.

* **Herbs:** Herbs considerably reduce the power of Bal Lost, but it doesn't expel it or make it totally impotent, if a house has herbs scattered around it loses part of its power in that location.
