Upon deserting Adam and turning against God, Lilith was warned that one hundred of her demonic children would die daily if she did not return to God. She refused, and so it is said that one hundred lilin die daily. The masculine of ''lili'' is ''lilu'', a demon attested in Akkadian mythology. See Lilith for an etymological discussion. LILIM IN POPULAR CULTURE In the popular Anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion , the seventeenth Angel , Tabris ( Kaworu Nagisa ), refers to human beings as "Lilim" or the descendants of Lilith. Adam and Lilith, in the storyline, are giant primordial beings who gave life to the world. Their reunion, however, would cause the the end of the world. In the ongoing Comic Book series '' Lucifer '', the lilim are an army of demons descended from Lilith who are led by Lucifer's former consort, Mazikeen .
