Satan (Lue C. Fer) is a bogeyman for grown-ups and children both. After being kicked out of heaven for telling YHWH to lighten up a little, he became God's prosecuting attorney and the Bible's foremost advocate for humanity's right to know and understand what's going on around them. Some people think that makes Satan the first humanist.
Somewhat unfortunately Satan doesn't really have a big part in the Bible - only a handful of walk-on roles - selling fruit, tormenting Job and tempting Jesus. He has, however, had parts in many other prominent works, such as Milton's Paradise Lost, Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov and the Faust story by (in turn) Christopher Marlowe, Goethe and Thomas Mann.
In an odd parallel to the book Wicked, Satan (then called Lucifer) was born with bat-like wings, rather than the traditional dove-like ones most angels have. Despite this huge defect, which made him the object of ridicule and discrimination, he persevered, and through sheer hard work and born talent, he rose to the highest court in the world, only to come to the shocking realization that God believed that a lifetime of sinning deserved an eternity of punishment. He then rebelled against God, and eventually was exiled. (little known fact: he is one of the ONLY characters in the Bible to stand up to God and live.)
He is also the Prince of Darkness, has horns, a widow's peak and a long tail. Some Christians believed that he hasn’t got a bottom. Where that should be he has a second face. In place of an anus he has a second mouth. Defecation is a torment. His favorite color is red, as he is a commie, and his favorite number is 666, because it looks pretty as a birthmark. He is claimed by some at RationalWiki to be a pretty good hockey player - but what do they know? He is also a metalhead.
