Belial

From Dragon Quest Wiki

Belial is a boss from Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line.

He is a more powerful version of the Archdemon and the last in a trio of bosses the Scions of Erdrick must face as they climb Hargon's tower.

Later games would use the monster as a species instead of a specific individual, similar to his fellow cultist Pazuzu.
