Encyclopedia > Amduscias

In demonology, Amdukias is a demon who has thirty legions of demons under his command (29 according to other authors). He has the rank of Great Duke. Amdukias is associated with the thunder, it being said that his voice is heard during storms. In other sources, all types of musical instruments can be heard but not seen when he appears. He can make trees bend atwill.


He is depicted as a human with claws instead of hands and feet, the head of a unicorn, and a trumpet to symbolise his powerful voice. According to other sources, this demon is depicted as a unicorn, and changes into a man under the request of the conjurer.


Other spellings: Ambduscias, Amduscias, Amdusias.
