Maskim
The Maskim were the Seven Sumerian demons who are great princes of Jinnestan, considered to be among the most powerful of all. Maskim means “ensnarer” or “layers of ambush.” The Maskim vary in form, and take the forms of the South Wind, a dragon with its mouth opened immeasurably wide, a leopard that drags away infants, a monstrous serpent, a wolf that does not flee, a nondescript creature (the tablet is illegible), and an "evil wind".
