Ornias (trans. “pesky”) is the first demon mentioned in the Testament of Solomon. This demon was harassing the head workman’s boy as they were constructing the Temple of Jerusalem. Every day at sunset, the demon would take half of the boy’s wages and suck his thumb (meaning to drain his energy).
Solomon inquired as to why the boy was growing thinner, and when he heard of the demon’s tasks, he began to pray to God that He would hand him authority over the demon. His prayers were answered, as God sent the archangel Michael to deliver a ring to Solomon with the seal of God so that he would be able to imprison demons and force them to help construct the Temple.
So Solomon gave the ring to the boy and instructed him to throw the ring into the demon’s chest commanding him to go to Solomon when the demon appeared that day. The boy did as he was told and Solomon interrogated him.
“‘Tell me, in which sign of the zodiac do you reside?’ The demon replied, ‘In Aquarius; I strangle those who reside in Aquarius because of their passion for women whose zodiacal sign is Virgo. Moreover, while in a trance I undergo three transformations. Sometimes I am a man who craves the bodies of effeminate boys and when I touch them, they suffer great pain. Sometimes I become a creature with wings (flying) up to the heavenly regions. Finally, I assume the appearance of a lion. In addition, I am descended from an archangel of the power of God, but I am thwarted by Ouriel, the archangel.’” – TSol 2:2-4
Solomon then sealed the demon with his ring and ordered him to cut stone for the Temple. The demon then admitted to being afraid to touch iron. Solomon prayed to the archangel Ouriel to help him & the angel then commanded Ornias to cut the stones.
Solomon then commanded Ornias to bring him Beelzeboul, the Prince of Demons. Ornias was able to throw the ring at Beelzeboul, who winced in pain, and then returned with Ornias to Solomon.

The tzitzimime (“Monsters descending from above”) were celestial demons in Aztec mythology that continuously threaten to destroy the world. They are said to be the stars that battle the sun each dusk and dawn.
One story from the Histoyre du Mechique describes the wraith of the tzitzimime. Mayahuel was the goddess of maguey who lived with her grandmother, a tzitzimime, in the sky. One time, Quetzalcoatl convinced her to descend to earth with him and join with him into a forked tree with Quetzalcoatl as one branch and Mayahuel as the other.
When Mayahuel’s grandmother awakens and finds her missing, she summons other tzitzimime to find her granddaughter. They descend to earth, and just as they arrive, the tree that Quetzalcoatl and Mayahuel had hidden as splits in two. Recognizing her grandmother as one of the branches, she tears it apart and passes the remains of Mayahuel to the other tzitzimime to devour, leaving the branch that Quetzalcoatl disguised himself as fully intact.
After they had left, Quetzalcoatl gathered up the Mayahuel’s bones and buried them, & from that grave, the first maguey plant grew. (Maguery was the source of an alcoholic beverage that was important in Aztec ceremonies as both a ritual drink and a sacrificial offering.)

Xaphan was one of the fallen angels who rebelled with Satan. He is now a demon of the 2nd rank. He has a reputation for an inventive mind and came up with the idea to set fire to Heaven before he and the others were thrown out.
Dictionnaire Infernal – Collin de Plancy (1863) (paraphrased) Xaphan is a demon of the second order with an inventive spirit and a bellows as an emblem. During the rebellion in heaven, he proposed to set heaven on fire. He was thrown into the abyss with the other rebels & fans the flames of the furnaces with his mouth and hands.
