Aledep

Aledep: In the Driscoll edition of the Sworn Book of Honourius, Aledep is one of three ministers said to serve directly beneath the demon-king Abas. Connected with the dark regions below the earth, Aledep and his compatriots know the location of all manner of precious metals and can be compelled to bring gold and silver in great quantities if appeased with the proper offerings. Aledep also seems to have some connection to earthquakes, for he is said to be capable of great destruction, causing buildings and other structures to be pulled down. He can confer positions of earthly power as well, helping those he favours to gain influence and dignities in the world.
