Misroch

Microchip: In A. E. Waite’s version of the Grand Grimoire, Misroch is identified as the Grand Steward of the Royal Household of Hell. Although Waite’s Book of Black Magic and Pacts cites this title as originating from the work of the sixteenth-century scholar johannes Wierus, the designation is not quite that old. Misroch and his infernal hierarchy actually stem from Les Faifadets, the early-nineteenth-century work by self-styled demonologist Charles Berbiguier.
