Kunos Paston
Kunos Paston: In the Testament of Solomon, this demon appears to King Solomon in the shape of Kurtael a horse with the hind parts of a fish. This strange composite beast is tied to the watery depths. He wrecks ships in order to steal the gold and silver inside. Although men sometimes drown in these shipwrecks, this demon is not interested in their deaths, preferring instead to cast these victims out of his watery domain. On a less dangerous note, he also causes sea sickness. He is said to be able to appear as a man or as waves upon the ocean. He is so tied to his element that he will die without water. He can be bound in the name of the angel Iameth.
