Behemoth (ベヒモス, Behimosu) is a hobgoblin; he is the familiar of Amaimon. Whenever Amaimon is not fighting, Behemoth is usually seen with him.
Appearance[]
Behemoth seems to be a normal hobgoblin or maintains the appearance of one. It always wears a type of leather harness, to which Amaimon attaches the leash or chain he leads it around with. For an odd reason, Behemoth sports a different color scheme than a normal hobgoblin - a dull yellow, crimson and a leafy green. It is also able to transform into a much larger version of itself for combat.
