Origin: Like Baal, Moloch was one of the Hebrew's archenemies, and is also most likely a conglomerate of several fire, sun and fertility gods turned into one nasty monstrosity. It might even be that the Punic "mlk" is the word for "sacrifice" rather than a specific god.

Career: Unlike Baal, Moloch never quite managed to come to terms with his Daemonhood, something that has made him slightly unstable. He has, for instance, become quite convinced that humans burned in his honour are somehow transformed into angels. When he does not unleash raging fires (for no reason whatsoever), Moloch will on occasion try to redeem himself. These attempts at redemption have all been spectacular failures: among other things, Moloch has been credited for unintentionally bringing about the Black Death and the Russian Revolution. Since the early 1930's he has mostly been brooding.

Character: The "sphinx of cement and aluminium" is known for both his lousy temper, fits of mindless rage, and a rather overactive imagination. He is seldom lucid these days.

Symbols and attributes: Fires of all kinds.
