Sammael

A monstrous spawn of the Ogdru Jahad, used as a vessel for apocalyptic power.

Sammael is a monstrous spawn of the Ogdru Jahad in the American comic book series Hellboy. The character appears in the 2004 film adaptation of Hellboy, where it is a creature that Hellboy fights. In the comics, Sadu-Hem is a monstrous spawn of the Ogdru Jahad that Rasputin travels to the Arctic Circle to meet at its beckoning. Sadu-Hem is later used by Rasputin in an attempt to free the Ogdru Jahad from their crystal prisons by siphoning power from Liz Sherman into it. Sadu-Hem is incinerated by Liz's flames, which also reduces Rasputin to a skeleton. In the BPRD side story Plague of Frogs, a regenerated Sadu-Hem becomes the host for a doomsday cult leader named Humbert.
