Satan
Prince of Darkness
Satan is the supreme evil figure in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions—the devil, the adversary of God, the tempter of humanity.
In Christian theology, Satan is a fallen angel who rebelled against God and rules over hell.
The name appears in expressions like Get thee behind me, Satan and compounds like Satan worship.
Calling someone a Satan or saying they're satanic suggests extreme malevolence or cruelty. (Lowercase satan is a rare common noun meaning adversary.)
