Namtar is a demon that was sent by Belial to reprimand Grace Blackthorn.
History[]
In 1903, Namtar was sent by the Prince of Hell Belial to reprimand Grace Blackthorn for taking off the enchanted bracelet on James Herondale. It held her by the throat while reminding her that it is not her place to disobey the oaths her mother, Tatiana Blackthorn, had sworn. Namtar commanded she put the enchantment back and it would see to it being strengthened before threatening her.
It was then attacked from above by Lucie Herondale. She and Grace then attempted to lock it in the shed while fleeing but Namtar managed to rip the door off its hinges. It then grabbed and lifted Lucie and upon her kicking its torso, Namtar squeezed her in its grip. Before it could do anything else, it was stabbed through the chest with the Blackthorn sword by Jesse Blackthorn and vanished.[1]
Description[]
Namtar appears to be a massive half-reptilian and half-human creature. Its body is a mix of scales and leathery body. It has bat wings, claws, and black and gray horns on either side of its head. Its face is flat and snakelike with ovoid black eyes, two mouths with fangs, and a sharply pointed chin resembling a knife.[1]
