Nithael - in the cabala, an angel
formerly of the order of principalities. Barrett, The Magus,
claims that Nithael is, despite his fall, still one of the 72 angels
bearing the name of God Shemhamphorae. The prevailing belief
is that Nithael joined Satan during the rebellion in Heaven and that
now, in Hell, he governs emperors and kings, also civil and
ecclesiastical personages of the highest rank. For Nithael's
sigil, see Ambelain, La Kabbale Pratique, p.289.
