Quimbanda is an Afro-Brazilian religion practiced primarily in the urban city centers of Brazil. The religion borrowed many aspects of other traditions, especially Umbanda and Candomblé. Quimbanda's practices are often focused on worldly success regarding money and sex. The religion shares much of the philosophy of LaVeyan Satanism, although it is more focused on the invocation of spirits.

-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.
