Daemonarchia Claviculus

The Daemonarchia Claviculus is a highly secretive Imperial text kept by the Exorcists Chapter.^[1]

Kept in a hidden chamber beneath the Librarius of the Basilica Malifex on Banish, the Daemonarchia Claviculus is said to contain the most complete list of Daemonic names outside of the Grey Knights and Ordo Malleus. Compiled over four millennia, it contains not only the common names of Daemons but also their True Names. It also contains their titles, ranks, appellations, and standing within the hierarchy of Chaos. Its pages consist of flayed skin.^[1]
