'''[[Lucifuge Rofocale]]''' according to ''[[The Grand Grimoire]]'', is the [[demon]] in charge of Hell's government and treasury by order of [[Lucifer]].
'''[[Satan]]''', also known as [[The Devil]] is an entity in the [[Abrahamic religion]]s that seduces humans into sin or falsehood. In [[Judaism]], Satan is seen as an agent subservient to [[Yahweh|God]], typically regarded as a metaphor for the'' yetzer hara'', or "evil inclination." In [[Christianity]] and [[Islam]], he is usually seen as a [[fallen angel]] that has rebelled against God, who nevertheless allows him temporary power over the fallen world and a host of [[demon]]s.


The name "Lucifugus" comes from two Latin words: ''lux ''("light"; genitive ''lucis''), and ''fugio'' ("to flee"), which means "[he who] flees the light". "Rofocal" is possibly an anagram of "[[Focalor]]", the name of a [[Goetic demon]]. In some modern [[left-hand path]] belief systems, the demon Lucifuge is said to be the ruler of the qliphoth Satariel. This belief originally comes from a claimed translation of an ancient Hebrew manuscript made by [[Eliphas Levi]] and has since then gained acceptance.


Lucifuge Rofocale is featured in the [[Occult Tarot]] by [[Travis McHenry]]. The demon is the [[Ace of Pentacles]] card.
