- “Ornias. He once placed stars in the firmament, but he now calls them down to earth. Say his name seven times.” - Ms. Lewis
Ornias is a Demon. In order to summon him, one must call his name seven times. It is implied that summoning him is very costly.[1]
History[]
When Blake is confronted by Letita, Ms. Lewis tells him about Ornias and offers to shoulder the cost of summoning him in that situation, should Blake need it. Blake says the name six times.[2]
Trivia[]
According to the Testament of Solomon, an ancient or early mediaeval religious text, Ornias was an annoying demon or jinn who resided in the constellation Aquarius. After he began preying on the son of one of the builders of the Temple of Jerusalem, King Solomon prayed to God for assistance. God sent Solomon the Seal of Solomon, a signet ring, which Solomon then used to bind Ornias. Solomon used Ornias to summon other demons, including Beelzebub, in order to bind them as well.[3]
