Also known as Eligor or
Eligos. According to pre-Judeo-Christian theology, a demon of the superior
order, conjured for his power to foretell the future and to provide military
aid and advice.
He is shown either in the form of a very handsome knight
bearing a lance and a standard, or as a ghostly specter, sometimes riding a
winged horse.
Sixty of the infernal legions are at Abigor’s command, which he
directs from atop his winged horse. He is also known as the “Grand Duke of
Hades,” a great manipulator of men, inducing them to acts of murder and
genocide.
“Abigor presents himself as a horseman carrying a lance, a standard, or a scepter. He commands sixty legions and is a demon of high degree, grand duke of hell. He knows of the secrets of warfare, of the future, and can instruct leaders of the ways to earn their soldiers’ respect.”
If a human prince or
general were to offer up his soul to Abigor, this demon would buy it with
secrets of how to win battles and conquer enemies. These secrets were said to
often have led to the bloodiest victories in human history. If a human prince or general were

He is depicted in the form of a
goodly knight carrying a lance, an ensign and a sceptre (a serpent to 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 Hell itself, and was a gift from Beelzebub. It was created from the remains of
one of the horses of the Garden of Eden.
