Much the same description is found in the earlier text of Johann Weyer's catalog of demons, Pseudomonarchia Daemonum (published 1563). Earlier still is the Munich Handbook of Necromancy: Clm 849 (published by Richard Kieckhefer, as Forbidden Rites: a necromancer's manual of the 15th century 1998) which lists an entity named Tuvries with much the same characteristics, except that he has 30 legions of servitors, and can cause a person to cross seas and rivers quickly.

It is probable that the earliest mention of Kimaris is also Coptic, found in the London oriental mss 6796 where the name "Akathama Chamaris" appears (Meyer and Smith). In this text, the entity in question does not appear to be evil; rather, he is addressed as a godlike helping spirit. Baskin's Dictionary of Satanism speculates that Cimeries is derived from Cimmerians, a warlike people mentioned in the works of several classical authors as dwelling totally in darkness. It is also possible that Cimeries is derived from Chimaira, the three-headed, fire-breathing lion-goat-serpent who eventually became one of the guardians of the underworld. There is a precedent, considering that the harmless Phoenix is also demonized in the Goetia.

Lilith: The origin of Lilith dates back to Mesopotamian mythology around 3000 BC, where she emerged under the name Lilitu, representing a category of demons or spirits of the wind and storms in Sumer. Her name, found in Sumerian, Akkadian, and Babylonian civilizations, shares the particle "lil" with other deities like Enlil and Nilil. Among her various epithets are Lillake, Belit-ili, and the Canaanite Baalat, meaning "the divine lady." One of her oldest representations dates back to 2000 BC in the city of Ur.

Lilith is intrinsically associated with the owl and is commonly depicted as a seductive woman with shapely forms. Her attributes are complex and dualistic: she was worshipped as the great goddess and queen of the Sumerian sky, associated with the Black Moon, mystery, power, seduction, and fertility. However, at the same time, she was identified with demons and evil spirits, considered a bearer of malaise, illness, and death, and it was believed she used water as a portal to her world. The moon was her primary symbol, representing her good and bad phases, and she personified vanity, sensuality, and sexuality. Through Jewish mythology, her image underwent a drastic transformation, being redefined and relegated to the darkest domain as a demon of evil and the night, who killed children and made pregnant women to have an abortion.

Lucifuge Rofocale is featured only in one text, the Grand Grimoire, a French magical handbook of black magic written in the 17th or 18th century. The book is especially significant for its feature of a specific pact between a magician and Lucifuge Rofocale for the purpose of securing the services of demons. Rocofale may be an anagram of Focalor, a demon named in the Lemegeton, a major grimoire.

The Grand Grimoire states that if the magician cannot master a magic circle and a blasting rod for controlling demons, then a pact is necessary. A pact cannot be made with the three highest demons — Lucifer, Beelzebub and Astaroth — but only with one of their lieutenants. It provides a Grand Conjuration for summoning Lucifuge Rofocale, who is a reluctant and obstinate spirit who must be forced to appear with the use of the blasting rod and threats of curses. According to the Grand Grimoire, when Lucifuge Rofocale appears, he demands that in exchange for his services, the magician “give thyself over to me in fifty years, to do with thy body and soul as I please.”
