Amon; public domain
Amon, also called Aamon, is a demon, the great Lord of Hell, the commander of the forty infernal legions, and the seventh spirit of Goetia.
According to descriptions, Amun vomited flames and had the head of a snake and the body of a wolf (and vice versa). If he took human form, he had a human body and the head of an owl with large fangs in its beak. Some also described him as a man with the head of a raven. He had insight into the past and foretold the future, allowing him to win friends and destroy enemies. He was also said to bestow love.
In demonology, Amon is one of Ashtaroth's assistants. He knows the past and the future, possessing knowledge of those who have made a pact with Satan. Rank: Marquis

In Egyptian mythology, Amun (also called Amun-Re, Re) was the invisible god—the king of the gods. He sent abundant harvests and determined the abundance of crops and animals, as well as the fertility of women. Amun's name first appears in the Pyramid Texts from the Old Kingdom. There, he appears with his wife (his female counterpart, Amaunet) and as a god associated with Min and Ha (the god of the Western Desert), and also identified with Re (Amun-Re). He personified the invisible life-giving elements of nature: air and wind. He was depicted as a king wearing a crown with two tall feathers, or as a man with a ram's head with curled horns, or as the serpent Kematef. In his hands, he held a whip and the ankh. His favorite animal was the ram.
