Nebiros

Lore

The entity known as Nebiros is mentioned in European grimoires of the period.

In ancient legends and demonological registers, Nebiros is chiefly addressed by the titles Royal Necromancer, Black Count, and Lord of Wrath. His conceptual domains are anger, hatred, revenge, and war; he presides over the destructive emotions that give rise to conflict and tragedy.

Physically, Nebiros appears as a three-headed rooster whose body is closer to a bipedal predatory dinosaur than to an ordinary bird. His surface is covered with stiff, iridescent black feathers reminiscent of a giant raven’s plumage. These feathers possess a unique optical property: they do not merely look black—they absorb surrounding light, allowing him to vanish in combat. Each head sits atop a serpentine neck, and the crests on their crowns pulse with a crimson glow that responds to the demon’s emotional state. The beaks are massive, eagle-curved, lined with rows of fine serrated teeth, and drip necrotic saliva. His eyes lack pupils and blaze with a yellow-green sulfuric fire capable of paralyzing a victim. Behind his back spread wings studded with sharp bony spikes. These wings are not meant for long glides, but their span and muscular power let the demon execute lightning-fast leaps.

Nebiros’s origin is hidden within theological dogma concerning the Fall of Angels. Supposedly, before his fall he belonged to the highest rank of Cherubim, whose nature has historically been described as multifaceted and zoomorphic. In the infernal hierarchy he occupies the post of one of the Six Great Officers serving directly beneath the upper leadership. As Royal Necromancer, his original habitat is the Stygian depths, where he spends eternity studying the architecture of souls and manipulating dead matter.
