Family Gathering

When Andrealphus and Corvus are in the same room, an exchange of barbs and insults are to be expected. But at least Corvus and Vassago get along well.

Four dragons (and life-long friends) who constitute some of the last in their particular world, being of the last viable generation as their ancestors slowly drift to other planes and their own world changes dramatically. They are all small for their kinds, and somewhere in the rage of 5,000 ~ 6,000 years old as of the modern era.

Verdego and Malphus:

Dragons can loosely be grouped into four types; terrestrial, aerial, aquatic, and polar. Both Verdego and Malphus are terrestrial dragons, although Verdego is only half (being half-human) and it is evident in her form here that she is in some ways only an imitation of her own kind. She is a skilled and wily shape-shifter, but compared to Malphus, her own dragon form takes some liberties through the shoulders and chest, as well as the hands and feet, that make her look somewhat ungainly. While she is a more adept shifter than she was in her youth, this form has 'stuck' for her, in the way a familiar piece of clothing is frequently worn.

Scythe:

While terrestrial dragons can fly, aerial dragons are far more at home in the air - smaller and more nimble than their counterparts. They were also the most numerous of all dragons, and the council often tried to play down their needs and accomplishments, dismissing them as able to live rather unique lives that exempted them from the trials and suffering of other dragons. This, of course, is untrue, and caused a tremendous rift of trust that even Verdego was unable to mend when she took it's helm.

Balados:

An endling in the way his friends are not, his family truly was the last of his kind, and with their deaths at the hands of Erinthal, the Dog of Kings, he alone remains. Polar dragons are bulky, hirsute, and unable to fly, using their wings as an additional layer of protection from the world's most brutally cold climates.

Malphus is the eldest of the bunch, followed by Verdego, Scythe, and Balados in that order. All of them are able to take humanoid forms, but Balados is the weakest shifter among them, and is unable to be passably human unlike the other three. While each has their own lives, they all seek each other out in times of crisis for comfort and support.

Theorizing about Ars Goetia Demons: Malphus

So, we all just figured out yow the leopard guy is Sitri, right? Aight, now I wanna talk about this raven bitch, and maybe the other guys that appeared with Vassago too

I think he's Malphus. In mythology, he isn't part of the Ars Goetia, but instead appeared in The Lesser Key of Solomon, where Malphus was described as an anthropomorphic Raven with a hoarse voice.

He's a great president of Hell and commands over 40 legions. Malphas builds houses and strongholds, but can also destroy the desire of enemies, find artifacts, and give people familiars. He was described as being kind, but would deceive conjures.

Honestly so happy I found this. I only found out who Malphus was by accident 5 months ago when I was trying to name a Crow that lives by my sister's dorm, who we said was evil, so I just looked up "Crow demon" to name him, and Malphus showed up. (We names the Crow Dawnathan because he always screams at dawn)

Edit: It could also be Raum! In demonology, Raum is a Crow who is a great Earl of Hell who steals treasures and can tell things from the past & future.

In demonology, Malphas is a major demon.

Demonological sources describe him as a mighty Great Prince of Hell, with forty legions of demons under his command and as second in command under Satan.

Malphas is said to build houses, high towers and strongholds, throw down the buildings of the enemies, destroy the enemies' desires or thoughts (and/or make them known to the conjurer) and all what they have done, give good familiars, and quickly bring artificers together from all places of the world.

According to the writers, Malphas accepts willingly and kindly any sacrifice offered to him, but then he will deceive the conjurer.

Meet Malphus

This Helluva Boss OC is based off of a background character in “Mastermind.”

And here is a glimpse of the interactions between Malphus and Corvus… '
