    About Djinn and their names

    So, every Djinn so far kinda resembles a lot of their IRL parallel (Like Paimon and Amon). So I was curious and started to look around some of them.
    Mostly because I was curious about what Muu could do.

    Here is what I found of Barbatos:
    Quote Quote:
    Barbatos is an Earl and Duke of Hell, ruling thirty legions of demons and has four kings as his companions to command his legions. He gives the understanding of the voices of the animals, says past and future, conciliates friends and rulers, and he can lead men to hidden treasures that have been hid by the enchantment of magicians.
    His name seems to derive from Latin 'barbatus', bearded, old man, philosopher.
    So I think Muu power will be related to beasts. Making him a Beast-Ruler and transforming his army of Domestic Equippers in ferocious animals.

    So far the ones we know:
    Ugo / Fire Magic (?)
    Zepar / Sound Magic.
    Amon / Fire Magic
    Paimon / Wind Magic
    Zagan / Life Magic
    Baal / Lightning Magic
    Focalor / Wind Magic
    Vinea / Water Magic

    Predictions:
    Barbatos / Life Magic - Power Magic
    Valefor / Fire Magic
    Purson / Wind Magic (About Purson on Key of Solomon)
    Furfur / Wind Magic (About Furfur
    Vepar / Water Magic (About him on Key of Solomon
    Shax / Light Magic (About him on Ars Goetia)

    Post your discoveries here as well and let's talk a little more about those blue lovely bastards!

    Re: About Djinn and their names

    Excellent topic!

    I totally agree, it would be great if Mu's djinn powers were animalistic. Maybe he can transform into Magoi-armored beats, mythical or real. That wold be badass and very different from everyone else's djinn equips.

    If you think about Sinbad's chibi djinn, Zepar, and what he did to Kougyoku you will do a backflip just as I did:

    Quote Quote:
    Zepar is a Great Duke of Hell. He commands 26 legions of inferior spirits. His office is to cause women to love men, and bring them together in love. He makes women barren. He is depicted with red clothes and armor, like a soldier.
    I really hope Kougyoku finds a nice person to marry.

    Woah. Well, Interesting enough, Zepar power comes from his mouth And it's somewhat related to that thing in your head that tells you what to do :P

    Re: About Djinn and their names

    You can play with making a complement with the kinds of magic that are in Magi. Some examples:

    Zepar it's Sound Magic.
    Amon it's Fire Magic
    Paimon it's Wind Magic
    Zagan it's Life Magic

    A guide to have better well-made discussions, don't you think?

    Re: About Djinn and their names

    So from the reference, can we conclude that the Djinn will going to be limited up to 72 Djinns? or is it possible for Ohtaka to take another reference in making Djinn's names? I think I have to go through all the names on wiki before predicting.. this is so fascinating.

    I'm convinced Furfur will be lightning and not wind.
    Plus Crocell did not appear here. I think it might be water based.

    Re: About Djinn and their names

    I know this is unrelated to the topic ,
    But what do u think about all the Djinn being past Magicians who were captured while making Solomon king ??
    Also , on a side note , I personally think magicians can't be rulers because they are too easily influenced by right and wrong w/o looking at the bigger picture [take Magnoshatt's War for example , staying neutral would have been better than to stay unfriendly and start a war]

    Re: About Djinn and their names

    There was once in the manga, Amon mentioned that they (the djinns) weren't supposed to "materialize" on Earth, because they're a "pure power" that a king can only use...
    Judging from Aladdin's expression, there seems to be a little conspiracy about that fact and the King...

    but aren't the Djinns human from the past? Or those images were just their human form?

    Re: About Djinn and their names

    Well, it's certain that they were human from the Solomon court as shown in Utopia flashbacks. And I believe they weren't only just humans, they were Magicians.
