TERRIFYING!!!! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

When appearing, he looks fierce in order to frighten the conjurer or to see if they are courageous. The conjurer must be brave, and hazel wand in hand, must draw a triangle by striking towards the south, east, and upwards, then commanding Beleth into it by means of some conjurations.

He will never be as cool as Stolas (noooo I don't mean the Helluva Boss version. I mean the actual demon that just looks like a normal ass owl lmao)

Stolas is awesome. Phenex is also cool.

There's a whole thing with owls being spooky. One of athena's symbols is the owl, which is funny because they're canonically dumber than paint (no offense). I think in Latin or Italian owls are called "Strix" or something like that which is related to "striga" and a whole bunch of other words for wishes.

And then in north America there's a couple of indigenous cultures that have some kind of beef with owls but I don't recall the details.
