The attested narrative places Abrahel's notable appearance in 1581 in the village of Dalhem. In the account summarized from Nicholas Rémy's Demonolatria, Abrahel appeared to a man named Pierron, seduced him, and tricked him into killing his own son. After Pierron repented, Abrahel agreed to restore the child to life on the condition that Pierron worship the entity. This single-case narrative functions as the primary origin-context for Abrahel in the provided sources.
In the available sources Abrahel is described by Rémy (as summarized in modern reference) by classification as a succubus — i.e., a female sexual spirit — but the corpus contains no further physical description (no details of height, attire, animal features, or other visual attributes). Modern cultural uses of the name (music, merchandise) do not supply traditional appearance details and are not primary-source descriptions.
According to Rémy's reported case (per the modern summary), Abrahel seduced a human (sexual seduction), exercised influence over human action (tricking Pierron into filicide), effected a return from death (restoring the murdered child to life), and demanded cultic worship in exchange for that favor. The revival was imperfect: the child was less intelligent, thinner and slower, later died again within a year, and the corpse gave off a nauseating smell, implying Abrahel's power to reanimate produced degraded or corrupted life.
Aborigines (mythology)
A mytho-historical label used in Roman and general reference sources to denote the oldest inhabitants of a region (specifically central Italy in the cited Roman context). The term functions as an identity/category for original human populations rather than as a characterized supernatural being in the provided sources.
Abraham
Abraham (originally Abram) is the foundational patriarchal ancestor in the Hebrew Bible whose life establishes a covenantal relationship between his family/people and God.

Abraun
Abraun is an attested name in German-language plant-legend scholarship (Der abraun, ein beitrag zur pflanzensagenkunde, 1916) and a short database entry (Wikidata) labels it as a spirit from German mythology. Surviving accessible documentation is extremely limited: the principal academic treatment is a 1916 contribution to pflanzensagenkunde (plant-saga studies), but the excerpts available here contain only bibliographic metadata and do not record tales, descriptions, or rituals.
Abraxas
Abraxas (Abrasax) is a late‑antique Gnostic and magical name attested as a high-ranking cosmic power in heresiological summaries and as a potent name engraved on amulets (so-called Abraxas stones) in the Greco‑Roman magical milieu. Heresiologists associate Abraxas with rulership of 365 heavens and note the name's numerological value, while archaeological and papyrological contexts show its use as an amuletic formula.
Absolute Green Lantern (tradition)
A modern comic-book reinterpretation in DC's Absolute Universe in which a giant green lantern-shaped vessel appears above Evergreen, Nevada, generates an impenetrable green dome, judges townspeople and sends the judged into the Lantern to await further adjudication in OA (Omega‑Alpha). The story reframes Green Lantern mythos as cosmic/religious horror with an "Enlightenment Spectrum" of flames (Qard, Rao, Sur, Aur) stewarded by Oans such as Abin Sur.

He appears in variant traditions either as a companion taken by Medea during her flight with Jason and murdered/dismembered to delay pursuit, or as a pursuer sent by Aeëtes who is overtaken and slain by Jason; his death functions as a key narrative device in the escape from Colchis.
