Amon's seal.

Amon, also spelled Aamon, in demonology is a marquis of hell who commands forty legions of demons. He counts the things of the past and of the future. He is one of Astaroth's helpers and one of the three demons in Satanachia's service, being one of the most steadfast of the main demons. His name means wealth, inducing greed. He has also been identified with the sin of wrath.

Knows the past and future by giving the authority to recognize and claim its covenanters by granting that knowledge to those who have made a pact with Satan (knows and watches people who have made a pact with Satan).

There is disagreement as to his representation, appearing sometimes as a man with the head of an owl, and other times as a man with the head of a wolf and the tail of a serpent. He is described as a wolf with a serpent's tail that breathes fire, or a man with the head of a raven and the teeth of a dog, or simply a man with the head of a raven.

It is probably inspired by the Egyptian god Amun, whom the Jews held a grudge against due to the subjugation of their people by the Egyptian Empire. He is also associated with the god Ba'al hammon of the Carthaginians. His name means & # 34; He who induces anger and murder & # 34;, as indicated by the cardinal sin of making his enemies fear.

Amon is one of the characters in the stories "Birthday Party" and "Lycanthropic Transmigration" by Ariel F. Cambronero Zumbado.
