It says that even when he was part of the heavenly kingdom, he was always "downward bent". He seems to have an admiration for gold and riches. He apparantly leads the demon horde into the center of Hell where they begin to dig a sizable hole in the ground, mining minerals to build a temple or meeting hall in Hell.
