Andras

In the grimoire/Goetic tradition represented by the Ars Goetia and its modern summaries, Andras appears as one of the catalogued named infernal officers — a fallen spirit who holds rank within a hierarchical host and commands subordinate legions when summoned by ritual operators. Modern fantasy/tabletop adaptations (explicitly noted as game-world reworkings) present Andras as an entity 'raised from the murderous souls of the Phlegethon' and unleashed to destroy mortals; this latter origin is a contemporary fictional cosmology found in roleplaying material rather than a classical-grimoire provenance.

Classical grimoire summaries identify Andras as a named Goetic spirit but provide only fragmentary iconographic detail in the consulted secondary sources; popular modern summaries and derivative pages describe him as hostile and associated with violent imagery. The supplied materials do not contain a full, original-grimoire citation giving a canonical physical description, and therefore concrete iconographic elements (specific mounts, weapons, or visage) cannot be reliably reconstructed from the provided sources alone.

Across the grimoire-derived summaries consulted, Andras is consistently associated with sowing discord among people and causing strife; Thelemapedia and Ars Goetia summaries warn he is dangerous to conjurers and their companions and can kill those who summon him if ritual care is not observed. Many grimoire-style listings attribute command of legions to named spirits; the consulted derivative sources state Andras commands thirty legions. In modern roleplaying adaptation (5e SRD), Andras is described as composed of murderous souls with the explicit purpose of destroying mortals and as a being whose unleashing risks disruption of the divine order. These abilities combine interpersonal/moral disruption (discord) with lethal, aggressive behavior toward humans in the sources provided.
