Sammael the Desolate One, also known as Lord of the Shadows, Harbinger of Pestilence, Seed of Destruction, and Hound of Resurrection, was one of the main antagonists in the Hellboy film. Sammael is a hellhound in which his essence was preserved and sealed within salt; crystals formed and gathered from the tears of a thousand angels. Said salt was placed in a container hidden inside a statue of Saint Dionysius the Areopagite. The Vatican was aware enough of the hazardous contents of the statue that they had placed it on the List of Avignon. He was described as a "Son of Nergal", Nergal-Jahad, one of the seven Ogdru-Jahad, which implies that he is an Ogdru Hem. When Sammael was brought forth in the modern world of 2004, the creature was cast with a spell by Grigori Rasputin, where for each "one of [him] that falls, two shall arise".
