An evil character who appears to be a satanic figure for the setting, although they clearly aren't the Devil himself. A Satanic Archetype character can be any combination of the following: A tendency for entering bargains with the intent of helping the other person in the short term, but screwing them over in the long term. If portrayed as more of a Noble Demon then said Satanic character might not intend to do more than what's in the contract — but they will still exact their pound of flesh from anyone who fails to uphold their end of the bargain. A Fallen Angel who rebels against the creator's will, and may or may not want to supplant them. If there are no beings outright called angels in the setting, then said character could be a member of another group of beings who were either divine, otherworldly, or just have abilities that others don't. Bonus points if they were their creator's favorite pre-fall. A tempter, who guides decent people towards indecent things. Often an Evil Mentor or a toxic friend, sometimes more supernatural and less corporeal. A God of Evil. A ruler of demons, or devils. Something that looks the part. Embodies most or all of the Seven Deadly Sins. Is known by various names, has many faces and is called many things. Is associated with animals that are considered dark or malevolent (like wolves, dragons or snakes). May or may not have fire powers or dark powers (because demons and hell are often associated with fire and/or darkness). Alternatively to the powers, they may invoke the literal meaning behind Lucifer - "bringer of light" - and be strongly associated with light and colors associated with both brightness and beauty, especially if they are also a Narcissist. Expect a Red Right Hand or a menacing One-Winged Angel form, though. Chances are, if a work is using Everybody Hates Hades, then Hades or another being or creature associated with death will be depicted as a Satanic Archetype. If the character lampshades their own satanic qualities, then it falls under Devil Complex. Super-Trope of Davy Jones. See also The Trickster, Hijacked by Jesus, God of Evil, The Anti-God, Maou the Demon King, Classic Villain, Southern Gothic Satan (a Deep South version of Satan), Louis Cypher (a trope which frequently overlaps with this one) and Demiurge Archetype (who impersonates God rather than going head-to-head against Him) Contrast with Crystal Dragon Jesus, Madonna Archetype, Messianic Archetype, Moses Archetype, Big Red Devil (who looks Satanic but doesn't necessarily act the part). |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Ghidorah, like in Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019). Vivienne Graham always called Ghidorah the Devil or the Dragon in her notes, it's often compared by human characters' narration in the story to a devil, and if Viv and San (Monster X) are an Anti-Anti-Christ then Ghidorah is to them what Trigon is to Raven. Ghidorah even hints in Chapter 13 that the Devil might literally be humanity's mythical memory of Ghidorah after all. | |

Hades, the ancient Greek lord of the underworld, as depicted in Hercules. He acts a lot more like a cartoon Satan than how he's depicted in the old myths. His brother Zeus is essentially the Grandpa God, as Hades' scheme is to rebel against him and take over Mount Olympus, i.e. Heaven. | |

Disney Animated Canon: Chernabog in Fantasia is portrayed as a giant black demon with horns and bat wings. Walt Disney even described him as being Satan himself. The god was based on a lesser-known Slavic god, which may be an example of Everybody Hates Hades. Presumably, using the title "Satan" outside the film just wouldn't be marketable. Maleficent, the Evil Fairy in Sleeping Beauty is referred to the Misteress of All Evil and claims to wield "all the powers of Hell". She also looks the part with her Ominous Opera Cape and Horns of Villainy. Hades, the ancient Greek lord of the underworld, as depicted in Hercules. He acts a lot more like a cartoon Satan than how he's depicted in the old myths. His brother Zeus is essentially the Grandpa God, as Hades' scheme is to rebel against him and take over Mount Olympus, i.e. Heaven. The Lion King: Scar turns the Pridelands into Hell after killing his brother, gorges himself at the expense of others (including his own hyena minions), and his personality embodies all of the Seven Deadly Sins. The Lion Guard pushes it further: he returns as a demonic Animalistic Abomination in stark contrast to the heavenly apparition of his brother. His dark lust for power remained even when he was the Fiercest of the Lion Guard, having killed the remaining members when they didn't support his coup against Mufasa. As a result, he permanently lost the Mighty Roar that is bestowed upon to the Fiercest of the Lion Guard, as it was never meant to be used for evil purposes. For this reason, Kion constantly makes sure to not become like Scar. The Lion Guard states that Scar's "Freudian Excuse" is flimsy. He was always a monster. The Little Mermaid: Ursula was once a member of King Triton's court, but he banished her after she attempted to overthrow him.note This backstory isn't made explicitly clear in the actual movie, but is canon in deleted scenes and in related media like the Broadway version. She made her home in a dark lair on the seafloor, where she routinely makes deals with merfolk, most of which end with her screwing her clients over, transforming them into immobile creatures, and keeping them trapped in her lair. The way she, Flotsam, and Jetsam, manipulate Ariel into signing her contract is quite reminiscent of how The Bible describes Satan tempting humans, along with the story of Satan tempting Jesus in the desert. While this is going on, she also plots to take Triton's domain. It's worth noting that Ursula looks drastically different from typical depictions of Satan, but her nemesis Triton very much looks like the typical Grandpa God. Judge Claude Frollo, of all people, in The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney). It isn't obvious at first, but over the course of the movie, Frollo reveals himself to be a man who believes himself to be better than everyone else. Increasingly, he begins to put his ideas of what is good before everyone else, willing to commit genocide against the Gypsies, and force a woman to feed his lustful instincts or else be burned. Among his weapons for hunting down Esmeralda: fire. Finally, he rebels against the very church he claims to defend, burning it with molten lead, and attacking the Archdeacon, The Paragon of the movie. The Coachman of Pinocchio may lack the rebel aspects or the obvious pride, but he makes deals with boys to give them everything they think they want at Pleasure Island, causing them to lose their humanity and be sold into permanent servitude. His Nightmare Face also looks rather demonic.◊ The Princess and the Frog: Doctor Facilier, the Shadow Man, presents himself as a suave conman who makes deals with people but is actually planning on feeding them to his Friends on the Other Side to pay his debts to them. Wish (2023): Magnifico is a deal maker who promises to grant the wishes of his subjects when they hand over their wish (a part of their soul) to him in a ceremony held when they turn 18, but instead hogs all the wishes out of paranoia that any one wish would endanger his rule. Much like how Satan is described as an angel of light, Magnifico wears bright clothes. His Villain Song even has him describing how he got his genes from outer space again reinforcing his celestial connections with Lucifer. |

A Diplomatic Visit: In the sequel Diplomat at Large, the Storm King, per canon. He commands an army of ferocious beasts, has conquered multiple countries and left them devastated, and has Tempest do his bidding with a promise to restore her broken horn, though he outright admits during the battle that he wasn't going to do it even before she betrayed him. In addition, he has horns, a pointed crown and goats legs reminiscent of Satan. | |

Much like his main-line counterpart in Dungeons & Dragons, Asmodeus, aka The Lord Of The Hells, is presented as such in the universe of Critical Role. While all eight of the Betrayer Gods qualify, being once-good beings who fell and embraced evil, Asmodeus most fits the depiction, both physically (being a Big Red Devil) and in terms of his MO as the God of Lies who delights in leading mortals astray and damning their souls to his Pit. We get to see him up close and personal in the four-part Calamity prequel-campaign. | |

The Dark Queen Olga from The Night Unfurls is a prideful Lady of Black Magic who starts a Forever War by rebelling against the Goddess Reborn, is associated with fire and dark, and is known by various titles. Later subverted as she is merely the Disc-One Final Boss, her motive for rebellion is portrayed in a sympathetic light, she gets a Heel–Face Turn, and her association with dark (dark elves) is not malicious in nature. | |

Eberron has a lot of hostile supernatural forces, but the oldest, most powerful, and arguably most purely malevolent are the Overlords of the Age of Demons, also known as the Rakshasa Rajahs. Each corresponds to a different form of corruption or destruction, and one of them, Bel Shalor, the Shadow in the Flame, is the most clearly Satanic. A tempter and deceiver who specializes in corrupting mortal souls, who likes to whisper from within the Silver Flame (which is the Sentient Cosmic Force that holds him imprisoned) and convince people to do evil in the Flame's name. Theologically, he pretty much is the Church of the Silver Flame's Devil, both for the above reasons and because their founder Tira Miron was first given divine power in order to defeat him. | |

The SCP Foundation has the Scarlet King as its main Big Bad and Greater-Scope Villain. As shown by this short story, he was once a divine being who fell from grace when the unbearable pain he felt at his birth drove him to madness and caused him to consume his siblings, making him stronger. Cursing creation, he now seeks to destroy all of existence by annihilating the Tree of Knowledge. Described as a demonic being heavily associated with the color red, he watches over everything and therefore the definite antagonistic presence of the setting. | |

Lord Shen from Kung Fu Panda 2. He is not only the Knight of Cerebus of the entire franchise and represents a great threat to China, but also his fall is announced from a prophecy in which a savior (Po, a Messianic Archetype) is going to defeat him. Consumed by his Social Darwinism and blinded by his narcissism, pride, and thirst for power, Shen attempted to commit genocide against the species he feared. The fact that his scenes are associated with fire and dark colors only enhances his Satanic qualities. In fact, the flashback of Po recalling the trauma of his village being decimated by Shen gives us Shen himself surrounded by fire, almost as if he were Satan. | |

Doc Scratch from Homestuck. If the name wasn't enough of a clue. note "Old Scratch" is one name for the devil himself. Doc Scratch is only a harbinger/servant to Lord English. Basically, Doc Scratch exhibits the Faux Affably Evil Man of Wealth and Taste portion of the archetype, and Lord English has the more hateful/destructive characteristics. | |

Exalted has the Yozi, the so-called Demon Princes. They're Eldritch Abominations who built the universe and were overthrown by the gods and humans they had created (there's a strong titan theme with them). They now sit imprisoned in the Bloody Bowels of Hell, tormenting infinite hapless demons, trying to lure mortals and Exalted into Faustian deals for morally dubious goals. They aren't necessarily pure evil, but they're bad news, very alien, and generally not fond of humanity. For example, the Ebon Dragon is the cosmic embodiment of betrayal, among other things. She Who Lives In Her Name wants to get rid of free will, for the greater good. | |

In the Marvel Universe, the Hell Lords are a group of demons composed of Asmodeus, Hela, Mephisto, Pluto, Satannish The Supreme, and Satana. Former members of the group included Beelzeboul, Dormammu, Hellstrom, Lucifer/Satan, Marduk Kurios, Olivier, Thog the Nether-Spawn, and Umar the Unrelenting. (Yes, Satan himself used to be a member of a group of demons who represent all the aspects of Satan. Somehow.) Many have admitted to either being inspired by, playing off the name of, or claiming to be the REAL Satan. Thanks to inconsistent continuity and their own history as liars, nothing they say can be believed. This was further complicated with the introduction of the real Lucifer- Who is very specifically the Satan of the Christian religion in the Marvel universe. A tie-in to the Fear Itself crossover introduced Satan's empty throne, but it was unclear if there was a real Satan and if so who it was (though when we saw God's throne in Ghost Rider: Heaven's on Fire, it was also empty). Several hell-lords claim to be Satan, but none sit in it for fear of being torn apart by the other hell-lords. Immortal Hulk introduces the One Below All, the dark reflection of the One Above All. His Hell spans the entire multiverse, he is the source of all gamma radiation, and he gives those who channel his power Resurrective Immortality while bringing out their darkest self. |

Equestria Girls: Friendship Souls: Much like his Equestrian counterpart, the Human Tirek fits the bill, being the red-skinned horned king of the Hollows/Arrancar, ruling them in their ongoing war against both the heavens (Soul Society) and the humans (the Quincy). It's pointed out In-Universe he looks a lot like the Devil. In fact, due to the All Myths Are True aspect of this crossover, it's heavily implied that Tirek himself inspired the stories of Satan and his minions, since he's old enough that he was once contemporaries with the ancient gods of various religions and mythologies. Although ironically, he wasn't responsible for betraying The Soul Queen, but rather witnessed said betrayal and chose to whip his side to war to face the real traitors. | |

Pathfinder presents Asmodeus, God of Slavery, Tyranny, Contracts, and Pride, pictured above. However, while not quite heroic, he is significantly more reliable, honorable and trustworthy than most examples; he even helped Sarenrae, the local Messianic Archetype, seal away the Omnicidal Maniac Eldritch Abomination Rovagug, the Rough Beast, and actually holds the only keys to his prison. Which he uses to taunt Rovagug. | |

She rebels against the authority of the world both Frank and The Professor because they stand against her rebellious nature, seduces a man into committing a grave sin that has grave consequences on the world, and causes an apocalyptic event out of amusement. She is associated with a light color palette, is associated with a hellish location and her defeat echoes the Devil in being dragged back down to the hell she belongs to. | |

Chernabog in Fantasia is portrayed as a giant black demon with horns and bat wings. Walt Disney even described him as being Satan himself. The god was based on a lesser-known Slavic god, which may be an example of Everybody Hates Hades. Presumably, using the title "Satan" outside the film just wouldn't be marketable. | |

If you read the famous Lucifer passage in Isaiah 14, you will notice it names the subject as a Babylonian king (despite other areas of the same passage describing a heavenly being). While it's common to write this off as hyperbole, some Biblical scholars (like Michael Heiser) believe it's actually comparing the king to a fallen angel. In other words, Isaiah is making an intentional analogy between the king and Lucifer. | |

Forgotten Realms also has the god Gargauth, a former note he got kicked out of the Nine Hells, allegedly for being too foul even by devil standards archdevil who had made himself into a god of betrayal, cruelty and (political) corruption. Thanks to focusing on the Realms specifically and being a god (albeit a weak one) when Asmodeus wasn't, the 'Tenth Lord of the Nine' was able to temporarily corner this niche for the setting, until Asmodeus actually became a god after the Spellplague, and Gargauth stopped being mentioned...At least untill the Second Sundering, though Gargauth returned far weakened, not even a deity anymore. | |

Ho-oh and Uxie both represent this trope in Poké Wars. Ho-oh is a great and noble angelic being of light whose Pride made him rebel against God's chosen plan in favor of his own vision, and he makes other Legendaries/Angels join him by preying on their hidden desires. His fall to evil also causes him to lose sight of what he originally fought for, turning him into an angry, spiteful, and petty creature of darkness that gets trapped inside the Pokemon version of Hell, the Reverse World. Uxie is a monster that was sealed away and is released during an apocalyptic scenario who then proceeds to manipulate events from behind the scenes to his benefit. He looks like a creature of good and light, disguising his evil intent, he believes that he can make the universe superior to God's attempt, and he plans on making mockeries/clones of his creations to act as his army. |

The Other from Girl Genius, to most of the people of Europa, is an unseen yet ultimate evil - much like the Devil himself. The more we learn about the Other's true nature over the comic, the more the parallels to Satan show up; they possess people as vessels, they make deals that have you more or less sell your soul, they are worshipped as a false deitynote The early Christians believed the gods of their enemies were demons. Similarly, Loremistress Milvistle suspected the Other was "some kind of devil"., and (via time-travel) they may as well be the original evil. Oddly enough, her father's name was Lucifer and her sisters were named Demonica and Serpentina, meaning the Other (as Lucrezia Mongfish) has the least Satanic-sounding name in the family. | |

He has horns and bat-wings, he's associated with darkness, he emerges from the Hollow Earth (i.e. the underworld) commanding a legion of smaller minions (demons) who are similar to him in image, and he does battle with the reigning benevolent god seeking to usurp said god's kingdom for his own and reshape the kingdom in his own image. | |

He is described as an ancient evil entity that opposed the forces of light, created a race of monsters who essentially possess and corrupt their victims, is imprisoned by his own allies who could not stomach his evil intentions any longer and makes a deal with a mortal in order to be set free. He is known by many titles, including King in Black, The Living Abyss, God of the Symbiotes and the Forger of Darkness, all describing how much of a malevolent and nightmarish deity he is. | |

Junko is a wicked manipulator whose very presence drives people to madness and blind allegiance to her evil cause, such as her twin sister Mukuro and her Childhood Friend Matsuda. In the second game, it's shown she had an Apocalypse Cult dedicated to her in which they also voluntarily mutilated her corpse in bizarre rituals. | |

The Lion King: Scar turns the Pridelands into Hell after killing his brother, gorges himself at the expense of others (including his own hyena minions), and his personality embodies all of the Seven Deadly Sins. The Lion Guard pushes it further: he returns as a demonic Animalistic Abomination in stark contrast to the heavenly apparition of his brother. His dark lust for power remained even when he was the Fiercest of the Lion Guard, having killed the remaining members when they didn't support his coup against Mufasa. As a result, he permanently lost the Mighty Roar that is bestowed upon to the Fiercest of the Lion Guard, as it was never meant to be used for evil purposes. For this reason, Kion constantly makes sure to not become like Scar. The Lion Guard states that Scar's "Freudian Excuse" is flimsy. He was always a monster. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: While not outright stated to be the devil, Diabolos seems clearly inspired by the devil. If his name (devil in Greek) and the title "King of the Abyss" did not tip you off already, there's also a LIGHT version of him, indicating he did at one point fall from grace or possibly the opposite. The manga, on the other hand, has a much more straight example. See that section for more information. The Evil HERO archetype has some elements of this. Lore-wise, they are Elemental HEROes who gave into darkness to obtain greater power, with the Japanese names of some of their members (as well as their attacks and effects in the anime) referencing Hell in some way. Taken to its logical conclusion with Dark Gaia, who is the most outright demonic-looking and has a background resembling a burning hellscape. |

In Kill Six Billion Demons we have the literal King of Devils, referred to as Himself. Unlike all other devils, he possesses a coherent identity despite lacking a name or mask, which is implied to either be the result or cause of him possessing immense, reality-defying power. The ruling council of devils that serve under him are also responsible for keeping him eternally imprisoned within a chained iron coffin. Incubus, although he's (probably) human, embodies the corruptor aspect of this archetype. His stock in trade is the Deal with the Devil, where he inflames the ambitions and skill of his 'clients' and drives them to excel no matter the cost and leading to their spirital ruination. He visits said clients in their dreams in the form of a beautiful Pretty Boy, and tempts them with power. In-universe he is known as the "Lord of the Pit" amongst many other titles, and he carries the word Flame of the seven names of God held by the Big Bad Ensemble. Jagganoth, meanwhile, is another human claimant who embodies the straight-up demonic aspect of the archetype. A borderline Destroyer Deity, he is known as God's Monster, Lord of Rage, the God-Eater and the Red God (amongst others) and presents as a thirty-foot tall monster of a man with a demonic-looking helmet. Jagganoth's ultimate goal is to scour The Multiverse free of life, making him the ultimate adversary of both the protagonists and most of the antagonists. Fittingly, he has an alliance with Incubus where the former distracts their mutual enemies until Jagganoth can unleash his final war upon The Multiverse. |

The Pony POV Series has two beings who share this role. One is Discord's father, Havoc, the Anthropomorphic Personification of Mass Hysteria and one of the four Elders (the Top Gods). He's the Dimension Lord of Pony Hell, where the condemned are doomed to pull his chariot across an endless desert for all eternity. The other is Morning Star, a Fallen Alicorn who was originally supposed to be the Concept of Perfection and Beauty, but, like Old Scratch, became the embodiment of Evil and Temptation when he attempted to overthrow the Elders, seeing himself as more perfect than they are. He was sealed away, but later released by Havoc to fight on his side of a war, and served as Discord's Evil Mentor. What became of him after that is presently unknown, though Word of God is that he was either killed during the war or imprisoned in Hell under Havoc's watch as part of the peace treaty between the Alicorns and Draconequi. | |

Wish (2023): Magnifico is a deal maker who promises to grant the wishes of his subjects when they hand over their wish (a part of their soul) to him in a ceremony held when they turn 18, but instead hogs all the wishes out of paranoia that any one wish would endanger his rule. Much like how Satan is described as an angel of light, Magnifico wears bright clothes. His Villain Song even has him describing how he got his genes from outer space again reinforcing his celestial connections with Lucifer. | |

The Bible, of course, has the real deal. But many individuals in the Bible still mirror the devil in some way. If you read the famous Lucifer passage in Isaiah 14, you will notice it names the subject as a Babylonian king (despite other areas of the same passage describing a heavenly being). While it's common to write this off as hyperbole, some Biblical scholars (like Michael Heiser) believe it's actually comparing the king to a fallen angel. In other words, Isaiah is making an intentional analogy between the king and Lucifer. Typologynote (that is, the Christian practice of interpriting parts of the Bible as foreshadowing the truth of Christ - see the other wiki here) has led to Christians seeing satanic archetypes all over the Bible. One notable example is the way the conquest of Joshua is read. Since Joshua is generally agreed by Christians to be a type of Christ, his enemies are seen as types of the devil. The Orthodox Church traditionally understood the battles in Joshua as being types of the Christian's battle with demons. William Nicholson, in 1862, understood Jericho to be a type of Satan's strongholds. |

Magic: The Gathering's Nicol Bolas. Starting by the fact that his own name is reportedly a German term for the Old Scratch and he is a dragon designed to resemble a demon, but it goes so much deeper than that. An impossibly old evil member of a host of god-like beings, of which he stood out amidst, he is a Consummate Liar and manipulator as well as an outright corrupter who can't resist being worshiped as a god if he can help it. He is thoroughly associated with the most stereotypically evil color association with all that entails,note and ironically once slaughtered by a benevolent spin of that combination, and is Magic's quintessential force of evil, especially after previous overarching villain Yawgmoth's defeat. | |

Sinestro in Green Lantern, to the point where the parody episode "Green Loontern" in Duck Dodgers actually lampshades it at least once. He was the best and brightest of a heavenly host that used a form of light, only to be thrown out into exile. At first Sinestro goes renegade, obtaining his own power ring, and eventually corrupts his successor Hal Jordan, turning him into the hosts for the monstrous Parallax. Seeking to overthrow the heavenly host in question, the Green Lantern Corps, he creates his own Sinestro Corps through making deals with various aliens and monsters across the universe. They take over Qward, the antimatter universe, and reshape it to the point where it resembles your typical Fire and Brimstone Hell. In the short term, he promises them whatever they desire, but what they don't know is that every single ring he gives them has a killswitch only he can activate. Mongul, for example, found this out the hard way, and the entire Sinestro Corps is betrayed and sent into stasis by their former leader when he no longer has a use for them. When he becomes the latest incarnation of Parallax, he takes on a twisted form resembling a devil. | |

Only Warhammer 40,000: For the Miltonian "Fallen Angel Rebel" archetype: Horus, who was the favorite son of the Emperor, rebelled, and tried to overthrow the Emperor in the early days of the Imperium. Further reenforcing the analogy, when he rebelled, one-third of all Imperial forces followed suit. The only Son who would stand up against him is the angelic Sanguinius, the Primarch closest to the best parts of his father in both actions and personality and who died for his bravery. For the "Edenic tempter" archetype: Erebus, the man who convinced Horus along with Lorgar to serve Chaos in the first place. |

Voltaire of El Goonish Shive fights against Immortal law because he believes he deserves to be a god. He prefers an "Angel of light" form, and shafted all three people we've seen him make deals with. While he merely manipulated Abner into working against his morals, he essentially mind-controlled Dex, and he tried to get Tara to murder someone, while giving her none of the aid he promised. Grace described him as "That weirdly white immortal who actually reminds me of Satan." | |

He was defeated by a young Xolal, who banished Necross into the Underworld, where he fell into a pit of lava and was transformed into a giant molten beast. He now plots to get revenge on the world by destroying the sun and plunging the world into eternal darkness. He also sends out snakelike creatures to manipulate others into turning to the dark side. Subverted in that he only got greedy in the first place because he himself was corrupted by those snake creatures, and Mune manages to redeem him by using his powers to destroy the snake inhabiting Necross' body. | |

Originally member of a race of beings of Light and goodness, the Celestials, after his Mother's was emprisioned, he, his Father and sister were exiled to the world of Mortis, where the Son grew bitter and resentful of his family, secretly planning to overthrow and kill his father. Said opportunity presents itself when Messianic Archetype Anakin Skywalker shows up at Mortis. He tries to corrupt Anakin to the Dark Side by taking the form of his dead mother and tormenting him for his failure to save her, not much different from how Satan tempted Jesus in the desert, and when it fails he temporarily corrupts Ahsoka to do his bidding. To fit his demonic aesthethic, the Son's One-Winged Angel form is a gargoyle bat, and in Christian terms, bats are viewed as "the birds of the devil", an incarnation of the Prince of Darkness, as well as omens of death and misfortune. After escaping Mortis, the Son takes residence in Mustafar, a Death World that resembles Hell in every conceivable way, and he starts to work alongside members of the True Sith faction to ressurect long dead Sith Lords to bring chaos and destruction across the Galaxy. | |

The Darkitect, as depicted in Dino Attack RPG. A Manipulative Bastard who actively plays with the emotions of his foes to tempt them into doing his bidding? Check. Ruler of the Stromlings and Mutant Dinos, often referred to as "demons" by the inhabitants of Adventurers' Island? Check. The Darkitect may not be Satan himself, but he certainly fits the archetype. | |

Manfred von Karma from Ace Attorney is a more subtle version, resembling Satan in the sense of his Book of Job depiction as an evil prosecutor in a court. Aside from being an evil prosecutor, he's also the manipulative Greater-Scope Villain of the original trilogy, causing pretty much everything bad that happened in those games either directly or indirectly. This is slightly less subtle in the Japanese version where his name Karuma (Kanji: ç‹© é”) literally means "hunter demon". Oh, and he sounds like the devil too. | |

The Bridge: The Shadow of Red is a huge, red, fire-controlling demon who rules Zenith, a realm that resembles Fire and Brimstone Hell. He and his army of demons enslave and torture anyone who enters Zenith, and he's been compared to beings like Satan, Iblis, and Kali. Bagan is described as having once been a radiant paragon of virtue and wisdom until something caused him to despise life and become an Omnicidal Maniac. He tempts certain characters with a Deal with the Devil to manipulate them into helping him achieve his goal. One of his former titles was even "The Morning Star". |

Code Prime: First we have Megatron. Once a former hero that fell to the dark side, turned his entire homeworld into a wasteland as a consequence of his quest for power, Megatron arrived on Earth by falling from the skies, much like the deciptions of Lucifer being expelled from Heaven. Upon firming resindence on Earth, Megatron became an Evil Mentor to Charles zi Britannia, corrupting the young prince with the social darwinist ideology that drives the Britannian Empire. He also controls Dark Energon, a malevolent and highly dangerous power that descends from Unicron, the Cybertronian God of Evil, capable of raising the dead as horrific abominations. Megatron also gains the power of Dark Geass, a corrupted form of Geass capable of killing anyone with a single glare. Being a Code Bearer also allows him to form contracts with others, as shown with V.V. after his capture. To put it in the bluntest way possible, C.C. calls him the Devil, and the leader of the Decepticons doesn't make an effort to convey his unhinged nature. Then there is also, Unicron, whom many people acknowledge as The Devil due to how similar their backstories are. Described as being of pure evil and malice that wished for the end of all life, Unicron once battled against Primus, the God and creator of the Cybertronian kind, only to be defeated and sealed away in the depths of Earth, although its worth noticing that what actually happened is that the planet ended up forming itself across his body. As mentioned mentioned above, his blood is a corrupting substance capable of bringing the dead, or just any kind of technology as horrendous monstrosities. |

The Little Mermaid: Ursula was once a member of King Triton's court, but he banished her after she attempted to overthrow him.note This backstory isn't made explicitly clear in the actual movie, but is canon in deleted scenes and in related media like the Broadway version. She made her home in a dark lair on the seafloor, where she routinely makes deals with merfolk, most of which end with her screwing her clients over, transforming them into immobile creatures, and keeping them trapped in her lair. The way she, Flotsam, and Jetsam, manipulate Ariel into signing her contract is quite reminiscent of how The Bible describes Satan tempting humans, along with the story of Satan tempting Jesus in the desert. While this is going on, she also plots to take Triton's domain. It's worth noting that Ursula looks drastically different from typical depictions of Satan, but her nemesis Triton very much looks like the typical Grandpa God. | |
