Bearded Demon
Bearded Demon
The demon who teaches the secret of the philosophers' stone. He is not well known. The démon barbu is not to be confused with Barbatos, a great and powerful demon said to be a duke in Hades, although not a philosopher; nor with Barbas, who is interested in mechanics. It is said that the bearded demon is so called on account of his remarkable beard.
