In demonology, Orobas is a powerful Great Prince of Hell, having twenty legions of demons under his control.

It is said that Orobas answers questions and gives one power and control over others, protects a summoner from the persecution of any other evil spirits and offer favor from one's friends and enemies, puts a stop to slander and gossips about the summoner, and that Orobas gives true answers about past, present and future. Orobas is said to give true direction and knowledge to a summoner who humbles him/her self.

Orobas is depicted with flaming eyes and resembles a brown stallion bucking up with dust. He also is depicted as a hairy dark man with a horse head with red eyes.

The name could come from the Latin 'orobias', a type of incense.
