Have you ever wondered why The Bible is called that? Someone a long time ago did, and the answer they found didn't sit well with them so they put the matter into the lore of demonology. They discovered that the word Bible comes from the name of one of the major cities of the ancient world and the deity worshiped there named Baalat. The exact identity of this deity remains obscure, but it was patron of Byblos (modern day Lebanon), a center of all arts and sciences. Most authors identify it as an Ishtar-Aphrodite type deity of womanhood, but it's more likely one of the mother figures of these deities as the cult stretches back into prehistory. All of that added up to something that was clearly one of the more powerful influences on ancient culture, hence a King in the Goetia.
I have two entirely different experiences of this spirit to share, you can take it or leave it.
This spirit is not really suited to romance of any sort, its power is ... fame. This is the spirit to call upon if you want to become famous. Everybody knows fame has a price, and that price is what this spirit will disclose. What must you do for recognition? It's different for everyone. Both of my experiences with this spirit involved performers attempting to hit the big time.
I really don't feel like describing either of these incidents, so the distillate tastes like this: You have to be some kind of fool to become famous in performing arts. If it's not working, it's probably not stupid enough. In one case, the person chose a more "regular" lifestyle than the one success demanded, and in the end concentrated exclusively on choir. I got a very entertaining tour of the world of performing arts. In the other case, the person ended up having major brain surgery and I suspect that the spirit facilitated his recovery. Both of these people did not achieve the massive global recognition they desired for one simple reason: they deliberately rejected it once it became clear what would be required of them.
