Glasya-Labolas is a Demon in the Megami Tensei franchise.
Profile
Origin
Glasya-Labolas is a demon with the appearance of a dog and the wings of a griffon appearing in the The Lesser Key of Solomon who bestows knowledge of all arts and sciences. It is said to be able to make itself or others invisible, and can accurately predict the future, especially when it involves bloodshed and manslaughter.
Design
The demon appears as a large, dark furless dog adorned with several gold-colored stone accessories, including a collar with a lock as a tag, wings, a mask with a devilish smiling face on it, hard glove-like decorations that cover its paws with long claws, and a long plate sticking out of its spine. It arches its back as if always alert and has a tail that ends with a motif similar to a paintbrush, and its mask spins to be upside down when it attacks. True to its origin, it can make itself invisible.

Game Appearances
Glasya-Labolas is a demon associated with the Qadištu in the Canon of Vengeance. He first appears in Shiba, attempting to ambush the Nahobino and Yuzuru Atsuta, but fails due to Yoko Hiromine's warning. He is forced to retreat after engaging them in combat. Atsuta reveals that he was chasing Glasya-Labolas in Tokyo, which led him to Tanakawa Tunnel and then Da'at.
Glasya-Labolas and Naamah later invade Shinagawa Station for Magatsuhi, but are driven off by the Nahobino, who kills Glasya-Labolas in the process.
In Devil Children Light Book, after Jin returns to the Real World, a boy in Harajuku Park alerts him that Glasya-Labolas and Idaten are creating Time Rifts around the place. As Jin overhears their conversation, Glasya-Labolas reveals Doreiru of the Rebel Army to be a traitor, having tricked Shun into defeating Lucifer and guaranteeing Makai's collapse. Jin barges in, to which Glasya-Labolas exclaims that despite exposing Doreiru's treachery, Valhalla's Emperor will still succeed in destroying both the Real World and Makai. He haughtily admits how the Emperor's plans of destruction are due to his fear of the Powers of Light and Dark, then challenges Jin to a battle. After losing, he tells Jin to visit Makai now that Lucifer is gone.
