**Satan**, formerly known as **Sataniel**, also known as **Baphomet**, **Tempter**, **The Evil One**, **The Devil**, **Antichrist** or **The Enemy** is an infamous main antagonist of all Abrahamic religions (though mostly Christianity). Satan was the first rebel on Heaven, even before Lucifer himself. Satan is the embodiment of evil, the opposite of God.

## Biography

Satan was an ancient spirit or force created by Ayin that existed when the first spark of Creation was lit, possibly during or even before Creation. He is believed to have once been a wandering spirit with no purpose, confused of his surroundings and existence until God appointed him with being a judge and accuser.

Before his fall, Satan was an Archangel and a prince of the choir of Power, showing his status as the supreme Power as Lucifer is over the Archangels. However, it is believed that Satan was something else before he was appointed as an Angel. He himself states that he is a bit of an enigma. Before his fall, Satan was also a Cherubim and a prince of the choir, showing his status as the supreme Cherub as Lucifer is over the Seraphim. This would explain why he is sometimes depicted as having three heads in his imprisonment, showing that after his fall his appearance as a Cherubim became highly twisted and corrupted. He is the most powerful angel created by God excluding Joshua.

God commanded the Angels, Djinn, and Aeons to bow to the first human Adam, Lucifer (then an angel called Helel) rallied other angels against this command with the belief that angels are above all other creations, Satan (then an angel called Satanel) was one of the angels rallied with Lucifer. He and other "fallen angels" fought against the forces of God and were utterly defeated; as a result, Satan was cast down into Hell. After his fall, Satan became the supreme emperor of the Inferno and the true lord of all demon kind, equaled only by the high-tier nigh-omnipotent Lucifer.

Contrary to popular belief, after the fall it is believed that Lucifer became a demon when his heart was filled to the brim with corruption and darkness. However, regardless of his appearance, Lucifer seems to remain looking as a fallen angel rather than a demon. Satan, however, discarded his origins and fully embraced his current status as a demon. So, in theory they could be the same being, but really, they are the same two different beings based on the same legend. He chooses what you see to his advantage.

## Characteristics

Satan's appearance is never described in the Bible, but, since the ninth century, he has sometimes been shown with horns, cloven hooves, hairy legs, and a tail, often naked and holding a pitchfork, an amalgam of traits derived from various pagan deities including Pan, Poseidon, and Bes, though he is fully able to completely alter his physical appearance.

During the year 7 BCE to 33 CE, his appearance was that of an androgynous being with very pale skin, they had no hair, eyelashes or eyebrows. The Devil just wore a dark tunic that covered his entire body. During Christ's temptation, he was constantly changing between a beautiful woman and an elegant man.

## Personality

Satan would appear to those who are sinful, playing into their hearts and towing them into despair. He may either be depicted as a rebel to the will of God, or as one who tempts mankind to commit sin to show God that mankind can easily be led astray from Him. In the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament, Satan is primarily an accuser and adversary, a decidedly malevolent entity, also called the Devil, who possesses demonic qualities. He is described as the "ruler of the demons" and "the God of this Age". He is the true embodiment of all evils in the world, second or below only to Azathoth and Ayin themselves.

Satan is mostly known as the Devil and, although the Book of Genesis does not mention him, he is often identified with the serpent in the Garden of Eden. Satan is said to also be associated with one of the Seven Deadly Sins being Wrath. This is the source of all misjudgments and rage that crosses in the hearts of man. He is also one of the Seven Princes of Hell, and he personally serves as Lucifer's second in command, despite being superior to him in power and might (possibly he sees Lucifer as suitable leader because of his mind, intelligence, wisdom, wits, and his dangerous cunningness).

During the beginning of time, he is sees himself as an enigmatic entity. Strayed and wandering his purpose among the creation. He is always seen as an expressionless arbiter and judge of God prior to his fall. Firm and cruel to his judgements towards the guilty and sinners.

Despite an overly powerful Archdemon lord of Hell, Satan also served and still serves as God's personal arbiter for the afterlife to check if man were worthy of the Millennium Kingdom and even when he fell, he was still allowed in Heaven. Satan also appears in the Gospels, trying to tempt Jesus Christ away from His destiny. His ways are the direct opposite and the supreme antithesis of God's fair and just ways. While God use light and justified ways to test his subjects and believers, Satan uses temptations, deceiving, manipulations, and tricking his victim's inner mind and heart to prove that man is sinful by nature, yet still allows and respect's God's authority and deems who will be sent to Heaven (for eternal bliss and peaceful rest) or Hell (for eternal torment and sufferings).

Being an arbiter of God, it is up to him if the person is worthy to go in Heaven or Hell, yet the final decision lies only to God. Despite being rebellious countless times in God, he still acknowledges his authority (even if it is against his will). Despite his obsession to humanity and wanting them to fall into sin so badly to prove to God that they were inherently sinful, by nature, he will still spare innocent and righteous souls, and will never permit them to be dragged or be brought unto Hell showing that he can be honest and fair when needed. As he states that only sinners and filthy souls are worthy to be punished eternally on Hell, and not the innocents. This is proven when he angrily attacks a deceased man, that dragged an innocent woman to hell (due to his obsession to the woman) and save her life from the man and sent her to Heaven via reality gate. This showing that despite being a ruler of Hell, he can still be empathic and rightness in his actions.

According to Joshua, Lucifer, and Gabriel, he must follow God's will and authority, unless if he dares to defy His will, he will punish furthermore. Being fed by Satan's countless defiance, even before his fall, and it is something that he tries to prevent and to further not provoking God's wrath. For all of his rebellious, malevolence, and evil deeds, God is the only being that he will serve.

## Attributes

Being a son of Ayin and later adopted and changed into mighty angel by the God, Satan is immensely powerful being. After his fall, Satan became the true supreme emperor of the Inferno and the true lord of all demon kind, surpassing even the high-tier nigh-omnipotent Lucifer. Despite having complete rulership over Hell, he was not at full power as a part of him remained imprisoned in the depths of the infernal Abyss after his fall.

Once he regained that part, he was able to even defeat the archangel Joshua, Metatron and Merkabah at the same time in a fight (something not even Lucifer was able to do), showing he is far more powerful than the strongest of his archangel brethren, in fact, when he was an angel in Heaven, he was known to be second only to Joshua, and casually crush Cthulhu and the other Great Old Ones, and God himself had to intervene and put Satan back in Hell. At his full power without any limitations, he is even capable of taking on Several Archangels and even battled a heavily unprepared Nyarlathotep for days in the darkest depths of space, forcing the Outer God to flee. He battled Cronus, the strongest Titan, when he tried to overtake Hell, only to easily defeated him and forcing him out. However, he is not powerful enough to even challenge Tartarus, the true primordial deity of the Underworld, showing that he is one of the few beings (other than God) that can make him flee or hesitate to engage in a vicious fight.

### Powers

* **Fallen Transcendent Angel & Archdemon Lord Physiology**: Being one of the first Fallen Angels that also turn himself as an Archdemon lord, Satan is a very powerful fallen angel and demon lord. Visibly more powerful than Lucifer and Joshua themselves combined. He is said to be capable of commanding all demons of every existing pantheon. With just a mere sight of him is more than enough to make someone shiver in fear and fall into despair. His power is so great that he is considered among the strongest beings in existence, more powerful that any existing chief deities. He is only greatly bellow God when it comes to power and authority and rivalled only by Merkabah.
* **Top-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence**: Being one of the fallen true archangels and a supreme demon lord created from the powers of Ayin herself, Satan possesses near-limitless demonic and (even) angelic powers. His powers are even revered by many of his peers, and powerful enough to become the true supreme emperor of the Inferno and the true lord of all demon kind, far surpassing even the high-tier nigh-omnipotent Lucifer, and the demon gods like Mundus and Argoxas. It is said that he is greater than the other six princes combined, and at full power is able to best majority of the True Archangels simultaneously. He is even powerful enough to take on both Archangel Joshua and Metatron at the same time with ease. His powers however are largely bellowed only by God and the Primordials, and rivalled by Merkabah, an Angel that possesses the souls of many angels that fall in his wake and a microscopic fragment of Calur's Power, the leader of the Arcuthas. His might has been seen once again during a battle against the Dark Knight, Sparda, and legends dictate that Sparda and Satan fought in a battle that could have quite nearly ravaged a large country with eyewitnesses, be it demon or human even, consider it to be among the greatest duels in history. After a long and hard-fought battle, Sparda was able to defeat the Imperial King of Hell (even though Satan is far more powerful than him) and banished him back to the Inferno. Sparda only managed to defeat him because of the assistance of Archangel Gabriel. His banishment consisted of conjuring a powerful binding spell that tied the seven princes to their respective circles and prevent them from going any further near the physical world. Also, despite being more powerful than Lucifer and Joshua, his near-omnipotent powers have still limited, due to the curse that God cast upon him and Lucifer to wander on Earth and watch over the humans, where it borders in way in what God allows him to, and also sealed away most (if not) of all his powers, including both divine and demonic forces. Also, despite his immense power, Satan is extremely wary of Arcuthas, Primordials and Outer Gods (despite being strong enough to fight with some of them like Nyarlathotep), as clearly seen with Tarica's and Lucifer's relationship and later seen with Akiel's birth.
