Bearded Demon
The demon
who teaches the secret of the Philosopher's
Stone. However, he is not to be mistaken for
Barbatos, a great and powerful demon who is said to be the duke of Hades,
although not a philosopher; nor with Barbas whose interest is in mechanics.
He is so called because of his remarkable beard. A.G.H.
