The Devil (a.k.a. Satan, Serpent, Morning Star, Deciever, Light Bringer, Dark Prince, Fallen One, Abomination, Prince of Darkness, The Adversary, Dark Lord, Angel of Light, Apollyon, Beelzebub, Lord Lucifer, King of Lies, Luci, Lu, Assbutt)

Second of the Archangels created by God, raised by his older brother Michael and was his favorite son. His name translates to "Light Bringer." He once had a strong relationship with God was fiercely loyal and devoted to Him. He is also a fallen Archangel, and the first fallen Angel. When God created mankind and commanded that his Angels honor humans by bowing to them and loving them even more than God Himself, Lucifer refused to do so, stating that he "merely questioned His priorities." Being full of pride and jealous of God's love, Lucifer refused to bow to a creature that he considered lesser than himself and God, whom Lucifer loved too much to be able to devote himself to the, as he says, "imperfect humans." Deciding to wage a war against God, Lucifer approached his older brother, the Archangel Michael, hoping his elder sibling would stand by his side during the rebellion. Michael rejected him and, at his Father's orders, a war begun in Heaven. After Lucifer lost the war, Michael cast him out of Heaven, and he fell to Earth. Sometime before he fell, he somehow came into possession of the Angel Tablet, which can only be read by Prophets and the Angel Metatron.   Once on Earth, Lucifer created crypts and hid various items (including the Angel Tablet) in them. As his rage against humans grew, Lucifer eventually approached the Garden of Eden and convinced Gadreel, God's most trusted Angel, to let him into the Garden. It's unknown how Lucifer convinced him but it's implied that Gadreel was unaware of Lucifer's true intentions. Once in the Garden, Lucifer twisted the minds of the humans, causing them to partake of the Forbidden Fruit (the Quince). Some time before or after this, Lucifer corrupted Lilith into a Demon. Because of his actions, God created Hell and had Michael cast Lucifer into it. Being now corrupt, this got humanity expelled from the Garden. Lucifer at some point managed to manipulate Abel (the second son of Adam and Eve) into listening to him rather than God. In fear for his brother's soul, Cain made a deal with Lucifer asking for Abel to ascend to Heaven in exchange for Cain going to Hell, but Lucifer only agreed if Cain was the one who killed him. Cain agreed, and Lucifer passed the Mark of Cain onto him. The Mark eventually changed Cain into a powerful Demon who personally created and trained the Knights of Hell, and elite order of warrior Demons hand-picked by Lucifer himself out of the very first Demons. According to one Demon, Lucifer also created the Princes of Hell around the same time, powerful Demons created after Lilith that were to be the generals of Hell's armies.   Also around this time, God had decided to destroy all of the overly vicious Hellhounds he created, but Lucifer managed to rescue one of them, Ramsey, who was pregnant, and from Ramsey the Hellhound population regrew. From that moment, on over the millennia, Hellhounds served as "Demonic Pit Bulls" to Demons, going after humans who had sold their souls, though Ramsey herself only obeyed Lucifer.
