Now, before I begin the fourth season of 'Queen's Vampire Hunter Vol 3', I have to give out the monster facts since I haven't done any of that in a while since the first volume of 'Queen's Vampire Hunter'.
It's not a chapter, it's the information about monsters.
We'll start with Season 1 monsters.
Lesser Demons: A low-leveled demons who are powerful than Tiny Devils and less powerful than a Devil. This demon is based in a book called, Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie (Dogma and Rituals of High Magic) by Eliphas Levi from 1856. Thus, it's been included the image of the Baphomet and 'The Sabbatic Goat', showing a winged humanoid goat with female breasts and a torch between its horns.
According to Levi, he believed that the alleged Devil worship of the medieval Witches' Sabbath was a perpetuation of ancient pagan rites. A goat with a candle between its horns appears in medieval witchcraft records, and other pieces of lore. It's also similar to that of 'The Devil' in the early Tarot, and became the source of the later tarot image of the Devil in the Rider-Waite design.
Blue Fangs: A demon that has a striking resemblance of the Warg and forged by Isaac. See Warg.
Warg: A wolf that resembles a giant wolf named Fenrir. In Norse mythology, Fenrir was a gigantic wolf, brother of Hel and Jormungandr, and son of Loki and the giant Angrbooa. His sons were Skoll and Hati, often referred as wargs. This term was used by a J.R.R Tolkien, who wrote the novels called, Lord of the Rings.
In the Poetic Edda and Prose Edda, the gods considered Fenrir to be too powerful and dangerous and decided to bind him, though as a result he bit off the right had of the God of War, Tyr. Fenrir would finally free himself from the battle of Ragnarok, during which he would swallow Odin, but would violently be slaughtered by Vidar.
Cyclops: In Greek mythology, Cyclops were an ancient race of giants, name literally means 'Round-Eye' or 'Circle Eye'. They were described as the sons of Uranus and Gaia, brothers of the Titans, builders and craftsman.
Uranus, fearing their strength, locked them in Tartarus. Cronus later freed the cyclops after he had overthrown Uranus, but later placed them back in Tartarus, where they remained until they were freed by the ruler of Mount Olympus, Zeus. They fashioned thunderbolts for him to use as weapons and help him overthrow Cronus and the other Titans. The lightning bolts, became Zeus's main weapons, were forged by them. They also created Poseidon's trident, Artemis' bow and arrows of moonlight, Apollo's bow and arrows of sun rays, Hades helmet of darkness, which was given to Perseus on his quest to kill the Medusa.
The poet named Homer, described them as mortal herdsman, sons of Poseidon, with Polyphemus being the well-known cyclops in history. In the book Odyssey, Polyphemus traps the hero Odysseus and his men in his cave after they entered to stock on provisions. He eats two of them alive that night and two more the next morning. Odysseus manages to get him drunken sleep and blinds him by plunging a giant wooden pole in his only eye. The next morning, Polyphemus opens the cave to let the sheep graze, Odysseus and his men manage to escape by tying themselves into the sheep's undersides.
Season 2 monsters
Gargoyle: A living statues of grotesque monsters that boast the wings of a bat, made in either of terra-cotta, granite, or marble. Mostly, they're demons turned to stone, and they're watchers to prevent trespassers from wandering into the castle.
According to legend in France that sprang up around the name of St. Romanus, it relates to how he delivered the country around Rouen from a monster called Gargouille. The Gargouille is said to have been the typical dragon with bat-like wings, a long neck, and the ability to breathe fire from its mouth. In each version of the story, the monster is led back to Rouen and burned, but its head and neck would not burn due to being tempered by its own fire breath. The head was then mounted on the walls of the newly built church to scare off evil spirits.
Slogra: A demon who serves Death. A spear-wielding demon resembles a skeletal pterosaur.
Gaibon: A demon who serves Death. A gargoyle-like demon who fights alongside with the Slogar.
Minotaur: In Greek mythology, Minotaur was a creature with the head of a bull on the body of a man. He dwelt at the center of the Labyrinth, which was the elaborate maze-like construction designed by the architect Daedalus and his son Icarus, on the command of King Minos of Crete. The Minotaur was killed by the Athenian Hero, Theasus.
After he ascended the throne of the island of Crete, Minos prayed to Poseidon to send him a snow-white bull as a sign of support. He was to kill the bull to show honor to the deity, but decided to keep it instead because of its beauty. He thought Poseidon would not care if he kept the white bull and sacrificed one of his own. To punish Minos, Poseidon made Pasiphae fall in love with the bull. Pasiphae had Daedalus make a hollow wooden cow, and climb inside it in order to mate with the white bull. The offspring was the Minotaur. Pasiphae nursed him, but the Minotaur because of the unnatural birth. The Minotaur had no source of nourishment and thus devoured men for sustenance. Minos had Daedalus construct a gigantic labyrinth to hold the Minotaur.
Athens was compelled by the cruel plague to pay penalties for the killing of Androgeos, Minos son. Aegeus, king of Athens, had to avert the plague caused by his crime by sending young men at the same time as the best of unwed girls as a feast for the Minotaur. Minos required that 7 Athenian youths and 7 maidens, be sent every seventh or ninth year to be devoured by the Minotaur.
When the third sacrifice arrived, Theseus, volunteered to slay the Minotaur. In Crete, Minos daughter, Ariadne, madly fell in love with him and helped him navigate the Labyrinth. She gave him a ball of thread, allowing him to retrace his path. Theseus killed the Minotaur with the sword of Aegeus and the other Athenians back out of the labyrinth.
Between the two monsters of Castlevania, Deadfest and Hammerhead were Minotaurs.
Malphas: A crow demon that's inspired by both Christian and Japanese mythology.
Malphas is described in the Ars Goetia as a 'Great Prince of Hell', commanding 40 legions of demons and being the second-in-command under Satan. He appears as a raven, but if requested, will instead resemble a man with a hoarse voice.
Malphas specializes in the construction of houses, high towers, and strongholds, throws down the buildings of enemies, destroy the enemies' desires or thoughts and all what they have done, bestow good familiars, and can bring quickly artificers together from all places of the world.
Season 3 monsters
Brawler: A resemblance of the Werewolf. See Werewolf.
Werewolf: A werewolf is a mythological or folklore human with an ability to shapeshift into a wolf.
There were a few references to men changing into wolves are found in the Greek literature and mythology. The Neuri tribe which transformed into wolves once every year for several days and then changed back to their human shape. Lycaon was transformed into a wolf because he had ritually murdered a child. Virgil at one point also wrote about human beings transformed into wolves.
The werewolf is a widespread concept of European folklore, existing in many variant, which are related by a common development of a Chirstian interpretation on underlying European folklore developed during the medieval period. From the early modern period, werewolf beliefs also spread to the New World with colonialism. Belief in werewolves developed in parallel to the belief in witches in the course of the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. Like the witchcraft trials as a whole, the trial of supposed werewolves emerged in what is now Switzerland in the early 15th century and spread throughout Europe in the 16th, peaking in the 17th and subsided by the 18th century.
Merman: The name itself is derived from male merpeople, which were a legendary creature dating back to antiquity that were known to have the upper halves between human based, while the lower halves ending in a fish-like tail. Depending on the legends, they can be deemed either ugly in appearance or beautiful.
This monster is based on the Gill-Man, the main villain of the horror film in 1954, Creature from the Black Lagoon.
Malachi: A pagan being from the ancient times who strikes fear into anyone near his presence.
The name of Malachi was based on the Lovecraftian entity Cthulu, a towering, dragon-like creature with a tentacled visage, known to cause madness at a glance and capable of acts of massive destruction. Cthulu is a member of 'The Great Old Ones', a race of mighty cosmic entities trapped for unknown reasons, and is fated to rise from the depths of his sunken city of R'lyeh to bring about the end of mankind.
Flame Demon: A demon born in the fiery pits of the Underworld who wields the fires from Hell.
Buer: Buer is described as a Great President of Hell, having 50 legions of demons under his command. He appears when the sun is in the Sagittarius. He touches natural and moral philosophy, logic, and the virtues of all herbs and plants. He's also capable of healing all infirmities and to bestow good familiars.
He has been described as a being in the shape of Sagittarius, which is also a centaur with a bow and arrows. Additionally, Louis le Breton created an illustration of Buer, depicting the demon as having the head of a lion and five goat legs surrounding his body to walk in every direction.
Unicorn: A legendary animal that has been described since antiquity as a beast with large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead. Unicorns are found in the Celtic mythology and are known as a symbol of Scotland.
In European folklore, the unicorn was often depicted as a white horse-like or goat-like animal with a long horn and cloven hooves. In Middle Ages and Renaissance, it was commonly described as an extremely wild woodland creature, a symbol of purity and grace, which could only be captured by a virgin. It said that a horn has the power to render poisoned water potable and to heal sickness.
In that appearance of Castlevania, Isaac used his magic to turn it into a demonic-form.
Legion: A floating sphere that is protected by an outer shell composed a massive gathering of innumerable humanoid bodies.
The origin of Legion's design comes from a biblical account about a demon-or several demons-who possessed a man. The New Testament outlines an encounter of Jesus healed a man from Gadara possessed by demons while traveling, in an event that came to be known as 'the exorcism of the Gerasene demoniac'. The story has many variations; according to the Gospel of Mark, a man 'possessed by a demon' comes from the caves to meet Jesus. Jesus approaches and calls the demon to come out of the man and asks him his name, to which the demon replies: 'My name is Legion, for we are many'. Thus, from the concept of being composed of 'many' came the design of the shell composed of a large number of human bodies.
In most accounts of the story, however, it is a large number of demons who possessed the man. Listening to their pleadings not to send them away, but instead of send them into a herd of swine on a nearby hillside, Jesus consents, causing the swine to run down a hill into the lake and drown (other variants of the story have the demons allowed to run free and they enter the herd of swine on their own resolution).
Malebranche Demons: Demons in the Inferno of Dante's Divine Comedy who guard Bolgia Five of the Eighth Circle (Malebolge). They figure in Cantos XXI, XXII, and XXIII. Vulgar and quarrelsome, their duty is to force the corrupt politicians (barrators) to stay under the surface of a boiling lake of pitch.
When Dante and Virgil meet them, the leader of the Malebranche, Malacoda (Evil Tail) assigns a troop to escort the poets safely to the next bridge. Many of the bridges were destroyed in the earthquake that happened at the death of the Christ, which Malacoda describes, enabling the time this takes place to be calculated. The troop hook and torment one of the barrators, who names some Italian grafters and then tricks the Malebranche in order to escape back into the pitch. The demons are dishonest and malicious: the promise of safe conduct the poets have received turns out to have limited value, so that Dante and Virgil are forced to escape from them.
Within the Inferno, the demons provide some moments of satirical black comedy. There are 12 Malebranche named in the poem:
1) Alichino (derived from Arlecchino, the harlequin)
2) Barbariccaia (Curly Bread)
3) Cagnazzo (Nasty Dog)
4) Calcabrina (either Grace Stomper or Frost Trampler)
5) Ciriatto (Wild Hog)
6) Draghignazzo (Nasty Sneering Dragon)
7) Farfarello (Goblin)
8) Graffiacane (Dog Scratcher or Scratcher Dog)
9) Libicocco (Libyan Hothead or Windy)
10) Malacoda (Evil Tail)
11) Rubicante (Red-Faced Terror)
12) Scarmiglione (Trouble Maker or Disheveled)
Ninki Nanka: A legendary creature in West African folklore. Descriptions of the creature vary, but most contend that the animal is reptilian and possibly dragon-like.
According to the tradition, the Ninki Nanka lives in the swamps of West Africa. The animal is said to be extremely large and dangerous. It's said that when children get too confident and feel they can disobey their parents and go into the swamp, they will be taken by the Ninki Nanka.
That's all of the information of those monsters, because I can't make it out with the rest of them since there's no information on any of them and I have to go up for the fourth season of this story. Hope you guys like the information.
