**Strange Kitten's Grimoire of None of the Above**
Demon #1: Moloch
Moloch is one of few demons who legitimately deserves to be called a demon. He is a force of great evil, if not the single greatest force of evil known to earth. Do not attempt to contact him. At least one instance of Moloch is held deep within the chambers of the Sphynx. There are many things held within. Some, such as the vast library of records, have the potential to provide an absolute wealth of information. The problem is that Moloch, and whatever other ancient evils may be sealed away, are also contained within. They are highly dangerous to go against, and Moloch's chamber contains many traps, a maze of mirrors, and many examples of real violence.
I believe that the Sphynx was a collaboration between Anubis and Pazuzu, with Anubis' head originally being what was on top, and Pazuzu's powerful paws being used to help seal away evil. Moloch is constantly hungry, and theirs is an attempt to starve him. He feeds off of misery and suffering and, the more of that that goes on in the world, the more he is fed. That is the secret to immortality - or it might be a type of suffering in specific. If it is, I know what the type of suffering is, but I'm not going to tell you. You do not want to go down that path to gain immortality. Merriment, joy, and love all help to starve him out. He deserves to starve - he is irredeemable. He has on multiple occasions attempted world domination, and unfortunately, the world is at a point right now where his next attempt will likely be successful. Our weaponry is far too advanced. He attempts to destroy those most powerful enough to stand against him.
Fortunately, I am in contact with demons and deities alike as we work on stopping this. I will introduce you to one per post >^_^< In addition to love being a weakness of Moloch's, he is also weak to rain, ice, and metal. As not everyone can be blessed by Marbas to have a [metal mouth,](https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/how-to-treat-metallic-taste-in-mouth-from-chemo) owning metal weapons such as swords or a bow and arrow is a good idea. Adorning oneself with metal, such as wearing a battle vest or collar with metal spikes, offers protection. Animals also offer protection, with cats offering the most protection. Other species such as dogs are also good choices, though ::3
Species: Shapeshifter who was once human. Typically shifts between a human form, a serpent form, or a bull.
