Focalor

Focalor

In demonology, Focalor (also Forcalor or Furcalor) is a powerful Great Duke of Hell, commanding three or thirty legions of spirits (the number of legions differs among authors). Focalor is mentioned in The Lesser Key of Solomon as the forty-first of the 72 goetic demons. According to the grimoire: Focalor appears in the form of a man with a griffins wings, kills men, drowns them, and overthrows warships; but if commanded by the conjurer he will not harm any man or thing. Focalor has power over wind and sea, and had hoped to return to heaven after one thousand years, but he was deceived in his hope.

One of the three archdemons Lucifuge Rofocales second name is a anagram of Focalor, implying an intellectual relationship.

Popular Culture

*In the 2006 Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game supplement "Tome of Magic: Pact, Shadow, and True Name Magic", Focalor appears as a "vestige" with whom characters can make a pact in return for power. He is described in his classic form, and can grant power over storms and sea.
