Lamastu/Lamaste/Lilitu/Lilith/Lamia is not Jewish .This is a Sumerian myth that was passed to the Akkadians , the Assyrians , the Jews and the Greeks . I think Wikipedia article is pretty clear .

In the myth this demon is half a woman and half a serpent and this is why Christian bibles up to 17th century had this image depicting the demon in the garden of Eden .

Why i am writing this ? because most of Semitic lore ( yes including Christianity , Judaism and Islam ) comes from the Sumerians .

Also yes Lilitu is a feminist figure because in the myth she was created as an equal to Adam and left the garden on her own volition after an argument with Adonai .

Wasn't she also the Drow queen in AD&D. I mean that should give any 'gamer' some pause, right?

"Hey, this organization is named after one evil as fuck bitch queen of spiders and drow. Shouldn't we pump the brakes and see WTF?"

What? Everyone low level and couldn't make it to that high end content? I digress.
