Agares is a Grand Duke of Hell who commands 31 legions of demons, as detailed in classic grimoires like the Ars Goetia. He is notoriously depicted as a fair, elderly man riding a crocodile while carrying a hawk or sparrowhawk on his fist.
Agares is highly regarded in demonology for his specific set of magical attributes:
Language and Knowledge: He can teach all languages and dialects instantly and has the power to destroy the dignity and authority of both men and supernatural beings.
Movement and Earthquakes: Agares has the power to cause earthquakes and make spirits of the earth dance.
Retrieving Deserters: He is famous for his ability to stop runaway individuals, force those who fled to return, and make those who stand their ground flee.
Historically, he is believed to have been of the angelic order of Virtues before his fall.
