In demonology, according to some authors, Agares (or Agaures) is a Prince, ruling the eastern zone of Hell, and being served by 30 legions of demons. He is among the more benevolent of demon lords.
Other sources say that he is a Grand Duke and has 31 legions under his command, and add that he can make runaways come back, and those who run stand still. He can also cause earthquakes and teaches languages, finding pleasure in teaching immoral expressions. He also has the power to destroy dignities, both temporal and supernatural.
He is depicted as a pale old man riding a crocodile and with a hawk on his fist.
