Forneus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In demonology, Forneus is a Great Marquis of Hell, and has twenty-nine legions of demons under his rule. He teaches Rhetoric and languages, gives men a good name, and makes them be loved by their friends and foes.
He is depicted as a sea-monster.
His name seems to come from Latin 'fornus', 'furnus', oven.

[edit] In Popular Culture
In Shin Megami Tensei_III: Nocturne, Forneus is a boss that appears like a large stingray with a crown atop of his head, vunerable to lighting and absorbing ice attacks. His race is considered "Fallen", and he is the first boss battle in the game. As well as this he can be obtained for the party in the Cathedral of Shadows via fusion.
