History
Life[]
King Solomon was the son of King David,[3] and was the King of Israel[4] and prophet of the Israelite people, responsible for the writing the Biblical Proverbs.[3] He was also a powerful sorcerer, and served as the Sorcerer Supreme from ~1,000 B.C. to ~800 B.C.[1][verification needed]
Lilith joined many other demons to challenge Solomon, who enslaved and banished many demons, including some of the Lilin.
Solomon had numerous concubines.[5] Supposedly, Lilith impersonated Queen Balkis of Sheba, one of her own daughters, to conceive a child with Solomon supposed to be the chosen one of God.[4]
Legacy[]
King Solomon amassed vast amounts of treasures, knowledge and magical artifacts over the course of his life, which was left hidden throughout Africa when he passed; much of his wealth, including the Brass Frogs which came to be called King Solomon's Frogs, was entombed in the Atlas Mountains in North Africa in King Solomon's Tomb.[6] The alchemical formula for the Elixir of Life, which Solomon believed a curse rather than a gift and thus should belong to no human, was entrusted to the Black Panther line and kept in southwestern Wakanda's Grotto of Solomon.[7]
Solomon was succeeded by Balkis as Sorcerer Supreme.[1][8][verification needed][9]
Modern Age[]
After reawakening during World War II, Magar the Mystic called upon the ghost of King Solomon for counsel and wisdom.[10]Attributes
