Origin
Zepar is a spirit in European demonology first attested as Taob, the 6th spirit in The Munich Handbook of Necromancy. He is a great prince who appears in the sign of a physician when in human form. He is the best doctor of women, and he makes them burn with the love of men. He can change women into another form until they come before their beloved, and he can make them sterile. He has 25 legions under his command.[1]
Zepar further appears the 19th spirit in Johann Weyer's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum, which draws from earlier sources. Zepar's description is very similar to the description of Taob in the Munich Handbook, though he now appears as a soldier rather than a physician, there is no longer mention of him being a doctor of women, and has 26 legions under his command.[2]
In the Ars Goetia section of The Lesser Key of Solomon, which is heavily based on the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum, Zepar is said to be the 16th spirit summoned by King Solomon of Israel. The Lesser Key specifies that Zepar wears red, and removes the mention of changing women's shapes.[3]
