King Solomon.
King Solomon is a fabulously wealthy and wise king of the United Kingdom of Israel who succeeded his father, King David. According to the Talmud, Solomon is one of the 48 prophets.Β He married the daughter of an Egyptian Pharaoh, but was said to be later visited by God while he was dreaming on his bed.
God said to Solomon, βYou are qualified. Speak your wishes. I shall grant themβ, but Solomon only sought wisdom more so than gold or political power. The answer satisfied God, the answer being proof that Solomon possessed the qualifications to obtain βtrue wisdom.β Solomon awoke with ten rings upon both hands, the proof of a wise man recognized by God. Those rings came to be recognized as the Rings of Solomon, the βsource of the magic that employs angels and demons.βSolomon came to be known for employing seventy-two demon pillars and the Seven Princes of Hell along with several more demons as his familiars, later leaving behind a manuscript that came to be called the ββArs Goetiaββ that tells of the art of controlling and contracting demons but because he summoned so many demons and kept them at the same time, he accidentally created the Demon God Goetia.
During his tenure, Solomon only accomplished a single miracle, but that was also said to exemplify his prudence. It was said that the people knowing that "the king is receiving Godβs protectionβ only a single time was best because more miracles could have served to frighten or corrupt the people. His single revelation established a βphenomena operation techniqueβ, Magic that could be preformed by the hands of the common man that previously belonged only to those with connections to the god. Even without needing to utilize magic, he was recognized by his reputation as the King of Magic throughout neighboring countries and was said to have left the world as a wise king.
