Etymology[]
Zeveak is a demon described in The Key of Solomon. Not much is know about him, other than being a demon of the moon.
Zeveak was translated as Parasoul in the original release of the game. Parasoul is meant to sound like "parasol", referring to the tool the enemy carries, but can also be a combination of the prefix "para-" with the word "soul".
"Para-" a prefix appearing in loanwords from Greek, most often attached to verbs and verbal derivatives with the meanings "at or to one side of, beside, side by side" (parabola; paragraph; parallel; paralysis), or "beyond, past, by" (paradox; paragoge). By extension "para-" came to designate objects or activities auxiliary to or derivative of that denoted by the base word, and hence abnormal or defective.
soul, in many religious, philosophical, psychological, and mythological traditions, is the incorporeal and, in many conceptions, immortal essence of a person, living thing, or object.
