Aka : the Beast; 'beli ya'al,' means 'without worth.', Beliar, Beriael
Element/sin : Earth, the demon of lies
Shape : a beautiful angel seated on a chariot of fire-belching dragons, leaving scorched earth in his wake
Rank : a King in Hell, a Fallen Angel created second after Lucifer, Satan's Emmisary to King Soliman, the Infernal Ambassador to Turkey (Victor Hugo), commands eighty legions of demons.
Origin : Hebraïc
Myths : one of the four chief demons imprisoned in a vessel of brass by the magic seal ring of King Solomon (the other three are said to be Bileth, Asmoday and Gaap).
Magic : To conjure Belial, one must make offerings and sacrifices to him. He answers in the most suave and pleasant of voices, but this is deceptive. Unless one keeps him in check by continually invoking the name of God, this Belial deceives all and sundry. To those successful in gaining his friendship, it is said that he distributes favours and preferences, and gives excellent familiars.
Association : often confused with Satan
Belial - is a demon in the Bible, Christian apocrypha and Jewish apocrypha, and also a term used to characterize the wicked or worthless.
The etymology of the word is uncertain, but is most commonly translated as "without worth".
In the Book of Jubilees, uncircumcised heathens are called "sons of Belial". Also appearing in some Muslim scripture, the demon is said to have feasted on the poor and feed the rich with the regurgitated remains. When the rich denied his service, he was sent back into the underworld to serve Satan himself.
In the Goetia, Belial is said to be a mighty and a powerful king over 50 legions, created after Lucifer. He appears as two beautiful angels sitting in a chariot of fire. His purpose in the Goetia is to make the magician popular, possibly getting them titles. It is also written that sacrifices have to be given or he will lie to the magician.
The Satanic Bible names Belial as one of the Four Crown Princes of Hell (specifically, the North Crown), and states that his name means "'without a master'" and symbolizes true independence, self-sufficiency, and personal accomplishment."
Belial represents the earth element, is the Master of Mankind and the Champion of Humanity, and represents the carnal and base urges of humans.
