The Devil

Satan or The Devil is the (usually horned) personification of evil in Human mythology and religion.

Other, similar horned gods appear in the lore of other races such as the Draconians and the Kaleds, the latter having a horned god of war. (DW: The Satan Pit)

Several beings seem likely candidates for the inspiration of this myth. The Beast said he had himself born the name of Satan. (DW: The Impossible Planet, The Satan Pit) The Doctor believed that Sutekh had called himself several names, Satan included. (DW: Pyramids of Mars)


 * The Doctor, not having met The Beast in that stage of his life, may have made an error.

The Dæmons, a horned race from the planet Dæmos also had similarities to the Human concept of Satan (DW: The Dæmons). So did the Greek Immortal Hades, a supposed lord of the underworld. (PDA: Deadly Reunion)
