Xaphan

Xaphan about one of the demons found in the book of Collin de Plancy (French occultist and demonologist) titled Dictionnaire Infernal (describes the demons in an organized hierarchy). Xaphan was one of the angels and together with Satan he rebelled against God. He was described as an ingenious being whose one idea was to set fire to the sky before he and the other rebels were cast into the abyss.

Look

Xaphan is quite a clumsy figure with humanoid shapes.

He has unnaturally long legs and arms, has bulging eyes and two small horns on his head, and his torso is clearly hairy.

Symbolically, he was depicted with a bellows to offend the fire.

He is now in a hellish forge and, despite living, has to make a fire with his mouth and hands.
