Five Satans

The Five-Fallen Adversaries

The **Five Satans**, also known as **Five Lesser Satans**, are a collection of adversaries which had sexual relations with humans.

## Overview

This group appears in the Book of Enoch, which had sexual relations with human women. Their actions were in part responsible for the series of events that incited God to flood the Earth. Despite being called the Five Satans, they have no connection with Satan himself.

In this case, they are more known as the Five Adversaries as "satan" is more of a title than a name. This may indicate that the Five Satans were originally nameless angels that were apart of the Arbiter choir of angels under Satanel when he was in Heaven at the time. It was only then that Samyaza gifted them with a name that the arbiter allowed them to become members of the Watchers.

Due to being former arbiter angels, they have a more fundamental understanding of humans and thus are usually regarded as the more wicked of all the Grigori due to their deep and insightful knowledge of humanity's morale and psyche. And with such knowledge they became a major factor in the downfall of humanity which then leads to the birth of the Nephilim.

## Quotes

* *"And these are the chiefs of their Angels, and the names of the leaders of hundreds, and their leaders of fifties, and their leaders of tens.
The name of the first is Yequn; this is the one who led astray all the children of the Holy Angels, and he brought them down onto the dry ground, and led them astray through the daughters of men.
And the name of the second is Asbeel; this one suggested an evil plan to the children of the Holy Angels, and led them astray, so that they corrupted their bodies with the daughters of men.
And the name of the third is Gadreel; this is the one that showed all the deadly blows to the sons of men. And he led astray Eve. And he showed the weapons of death to the children of men, the shield and the breastplate, and the sword for slaughter, and all the weapons of death to the sons of men.
And from his hand they have gone out against those who dwell the dry ground from that time and forever and ever.
And the name of the fourth is Penemue; this one showed the sons of men the bitter and the sweet and showed them all the secrets of their wisdom.
He taught men the art of writing with ink and paper, and through this many have gone astray, from eternity to eternity, and to this day.
For men were not created for this, that they should confirm their faith like this, with pen and ink.
For men were created no differently from the Angels, so that they might remain righteous and pure, and death, which destroys everything, would not have touched them; but through this knowledge of theirs they are being destroyed and through this power death consumes them.
And the name of the fifth is Kasdeyae; this one showed the sons of men all the evil blows of the spirits and of the demons, and the blows that attack the embryo in the womb so that it miscarries. And the blows that attack the soul: the bite of the serpent. And the blows that occur at midday, and the son of the serpent – who is strong."* - Cut of Book of Enoch chapter 69.
