Xezbeth

Xezbeth is a fictional demon, often appearing in grimoires and occult literature. It is typically described as a spirit associated with necromancy and the ability to control or manipulate the dead. Details regarding Xezbeth vary depending on the source, but common themes include the spirit's infernal rank, the rituals required to summon it, and the powers it can bestow upon the conjurer.

In some accounts, Xezbeth is depicted as a high-ranking demon within the infernal hierarchy, commanding legions of lesser spirits. These accounts often detail elaborate rituals involving specific herbs, incantations, and sigils necessary to invoke its presence. The spirit is usually presented as dangerous and capricious, requiring the conjurer to exercise extreme caution and adhere strictly to the prescribed procedures.

The powers attributed to Xezbeth commonly revolve around control over the deceased, including animation of corpses, divination through the spirits of the dead, and the ability to access forbidden knowledge from beyond the grave. Some texts also suggest that Xezbeth can grant the conjurer power over life and death, although this is typically portrayed as a perilous bargain with potentially dire consequences.

Despite its presence in occult literature, there is no historical evidence to suggest that Xezbeth has any basis in reality. It remains a figure within the realm of fictional demonology and a product of human imagination.
