- "So Satan is also real?"
"Yes, but frankly, Satan is overated."
"Overated? That’s a funny way of putting it. How so?"
"Well. He only has power to the extent that you give it to him." - ― Paul Asher and God (Interview With God)
- "The darkest pit of hell has opened to swallow you whole, so don't keep The Devil waiting, old friend."
- ― Henry Emily to William Afton (Five Nights at Freddy's Series)
- "♪In case you ain't heard, I'm the Devil!
I'm a real low-down, up on the level!
They call me Old Scratch, Mr. S, the Big D,
I'm the king of the Underworld; yeah, it's great to be me!♪" - ― The lyrics from the Devil's song (The Cuphead Show!)
- "His Smile fair as spring, as towards him he draws you
His tongue sharp and silvery, as he implores you
Your wishes he grants, as he swears to adore you
Gold, silver, jewels - he lay riches before you
Dues need be repaid, and he will come for you
All to reclaim, no smile to console you
He'll snare you in bonds, eyes glowin' afire
To gore and torment you until the stars expire." - ― Gaunter O'Dimm's song (The Witcher 3)
- "♪Looks like you could use some help
From the Big Boss of Hell himself
Check out Daddy's glowing reviews on Yelp
'Five Stars!', 'Flawless!', 'Greater than great!'
Oh, with a punch of a pentagram
I wap-bam-boom, alakazam
Usually, I charge a sacrificial lamb
But you get the family rate!♪" - ― Lucifer Morningstar to his daughter Charlie (Hazbin Hotel)

Properties[]
The user is the Devil, A being who is a personification of evil as it is conceived in various cultures and religious traditions (primarily Abrahamic religions) as a powerful dark entity that symbolizes the contrary to God: evil, sin, rebellion, and the realm of Hell as its supreme lord who is an objectification of a hostile and destructive force.
It comes in many forms; the reason why it’s challenging to specify a particular definition of any complexity that will cover all of the traditions, cultures, and religions is that it is a manifestation of evil, mainly that of a satyr-like determined in famous belief, or as a lovely angel, and even as higher degree demons as part of said mythos some other myths say that archdemons claim the title of the devil by other sources.
Depending on the source, the role of the devil can vary. In some cases, the Devil is not a personification or a source of evil but merely the infamous punisher and destroyer of it. In other cases, the Devil is the king/emperor and god of all demons, ruler of all of hell, or exists as the antithesis of God.
