Ukobach (Wikipedia)
In de Plancy's 1818 Dictionnaire Infernal, Ukobach is described as a "Demon of a low rank. He is always shown with a flaming body. He is known as the inventor of frying and of fireworks. He is charged, by Belzebuth (sic), to maintain the oil in the infernal boilers."
In Hell the Ukobach is often seen throwing Burning Coals on the souls of the damned or tormenting them with flames.
He always appears with an inflamed body and the blood of the Ukobach is seen as a powerful energy source, and has been used (in mythology) as the lamp oil in Jack O'Lantern's Lamp for his infernal wondering. In addition to the stations mentioned by de Plancy, we find him mentioned in many other stations, almost as if he were the "Stationary Engineer" of Hell.
A distortion of "Urobach" meaning "Ignite" or "Tinder" Ukobach is not often summoned by occultists, when he is one requires a higher ranking demon to make him talk or perform any action, as he has no free will but is at the whim of all other demons. His nature is simply to spew forth fires wherever he may be required, for good or evil. He is also seen as being a demonic force of the west residing where the sun sets.
