## Biography

**OVERVEIW**

The Ars Goetia are 72 demonic nobles, who used to be angels, who like their Lucifer and most other demons, rebelled against God and were cast down from Heaven. These 72 demons are Lucifer's most loyal servants, who each command over legions of lesser demons, hold domain over certain "gifts" and each have a sigil that can be used to summon them.

Like most demons, the Goetia are tempters, who trie to damn humans by offering worthly gifts, like wealth, knowledge or magical powers in return for souls.

The Goetia are divided into a noble hierarchy, with the following ranks:

* King of Hell
* Duke of Hell
* Prince of Hell
* Marquis of Hell
* Count of Hell
* Knight of Hell
* President of Hell

## Powers & Abilities

* **Biokinesis** - Some Ars Goetia can manipulate the biology of other beings. Azazel, for example, was able to torture Dean by causing him to hemorrhage. Meg was also able to cause Crowley to cough up blood in a similar manner. Astaroth stopped Elizabeth Higgins' heart with a wave of her hand and Abaddon caused people to bleed from their eyes. Crowley was even able to cause a girl to explode by snapping his fingers.
* **Electrokinesis** - Displayed by Azazel and Crowley. They could manipulate electronic equipment to their will. Also the higher demon possessing Isaac's corpse was able to switch on an old radio.
* **Invisibility** - Some Ars Goetia can become invisible to humans.
* **Pyrokinesis** - Some Ars Goetia members can generate and manipulate fire. Azazel and (probably) Brady have demonstrated this ability. Crowley can also manipulate fire; he has lit a fireplace by raising his hand, extinguished a Holy Fire circle by snapping his fingers, and also pretended to set himself on fire.
* **Telepathy** - Dean mentions that some demons can read minds. Envy used this ability to gain intimate knowledge about Tamara's past without ever encountering her before or possessing her.
* **Soul Reading** - Some Ars Goetia members particularly Crossroad Ars Goetia Members can access the condition of one's soul.
* **Spell Casting** - Some Ars Goetia members can practice witchcraft, much like witches, like altering the range/space they occupy. Other demons are adept in Enochian magic which they use to protect themselves from Angels. Alastair knew of a spell that could allow him to banish an angel back to Heaven. Meg and Casey knew of spells that they could use while inside a Devil's Trap, allowing them to break free. Astaroth was extremely skilled in magic and used it to kill witches, almost kill Dean and severely hurt Ruby. Belphegor was able to cast a spell to expel souls from corpses that they were possessing and another to create a barrier a mile-wide that trapped all souls within its radius inside. It also looks like all demons can use the Goblet of Blood to communicate with each other.
