Contest Inspiration: Lilith, The "Demon Queen"

An interesting little tale of Jewish origin!

Due to my lack of culture I was only aware of the existence of Lilith as a Demon from the TV series "Supernatural", but as usual, the true roots of this tale are for more intruiging than a TV show!
It is told that Lilith is the original companion of Adam, created by God in the garden of Eden. She was created at the same time, of the same dust as Adam (ie, not created after Adam from his Rib, as Eve was). Lilith was a bit of a feminist and she refused to accept that she was anything less than equal to Adam, and refused to submit to him in any way - including sexually. It it written that Lilith refused to engage with Adam in the Missionary position, and prefered to go on top! Unfortunately Adam's response to this was to force Lilith to submit to his will.

Lilith flew from Adam that very night to a cave, where she cavorted and fornicated with hordes of Demons. She is reputed to have produced a hundred demonic offspring everyday (one busy lady!) and hence earned herself the title of "Demon Queen" - her offspring are thought to account for every single demon in existence today!

Lilith is a SUCCUBUS demon - the femmes-fatales of the demon world who engage with human males in erotic activities whilst they sleep... Lilith is actually also mentioned in the bible, as inhabiting a hostile wasteland - "And Lilith shall repose there" (Isaiah 34:14).

Lilith was sent to tempt King Soloman as he studied the Torah - as she manifested in front of him, the letters of the book flew from the pages. He looked up to see a "strikingly beautiful, dark-haired woman", but recognised her for the demon she was when he realised she had no reflection.

Lilith is reported to have married Asmodeus - the demon of Wrath and Lust, and the couple can reputedly be seen in the dark as apair of black dogs who roam the empty streets.
