In Mandaeism, Hag (Classical Mandaic: ࡄࡀࡂ) and Mag (Classical Mandaic: ࡌࡀࡂ) are a pair of demons that are usually mentioned together. Hag is a male demon, while Mag is a female demon. Hibil Ziwa encounters Hag and Mag during his descent to the World of Darkness in Chapter 1 of Book 5 in the Right Ginza, where they are described as "the two manas of darkness."[1] Hag is represented by the image of a scorpion on the skandola talisman.[2]: 37
