Abigor is a demon who is a grand duke in hell.

Overview[]

Excerpts from The Encyclopedia of Demons and Demonology

Abigor, also known as Eligor, appears as a handsome man on a horse, holding a standard or scepter. He knows all the secrets of war and sees the future. He teaches leaders how to win the loyalty of soldiers. In hell, he commands 60 legions of demons.

Abigor is depicted in the form of a goodly knight carrying a lance, an ensign and a sceptre (a serpent to some authors, most notably Aleister Crowley). Alternatively he is depicted as a ghostly spectre, sometimes riding a semi-skeletal (sometimes winged) horse, or the Steed of Abigor. This is a minion of Jinnestan itself, and was a gift from Beelzebub.
