Suleiman bin Daoud was a great practitioner, creator and namesake of the Seal of Solomon that bound Others into doing no harm to innocents (among other effects.)

Description

He was depicted in one book as a brown-skinned man with a large beard and a small golden hat. <ref name="book">She lifted another book, turning it around so I could see a painting of a brown-skinned man with a funny little golden hat and a magnificent beard.
Rose explained, “Suleiman. Sorcerer king. He was the first practitioner who really worked for the betterment of mankind and actually made headway. He established rules and contracts, and he systematically worked to challenge the biggest, baddest Others out there that he could, then used them to help get others. It brought about an age where humans could stop being the playthings of Others and start developing as a civilization.”
“Okay,” I said. “And the seal?”
“A formal acknowledgement on the part of an Other, that they won’t interfere with mankind without excuse, they’ll obey certain rules, and the practitioners will leave them be. Typically an Other bears some symbol or token of this bargain. Over time it’s gained a power of its own. Being sealed physically alters the Other, but it also affords them certain protections against us.” - excerpt from Bonds 1.7</ref>
