Lucifer

"I am Lucifer, the Son of the morning. I will not dance at the throne of God, I will topple it! Let God fear me."

- Lucifer after escaping Hell.

Lucifer also known as Satan, was once God's brightest Angel until his rebellion. He wished to become the ruler of the Universe which got him cast out of Heaven by his brother Michael and into Hell. After his escape from Hell he took the form of a snake and was able to trick the first two humans in the Universe to Sin. He appeared as a serpent to Eve and requested she pick fruit from the Tree of Knowledge, claiming it would make her like God.

Even though he isn't God he still possesses powers that no human can compare to. He can shape-shift, transport, and fly.

In The Miracle Maker, Lucifer appears to tempt Jesus in the desert, suggesting he turn a rock into bread to satisfy his hunger, but Jesus replies that Man cannot live on bread alone. He also offers Jesus all the nations of the world at his command if he bows down to him; Jesus again refuses, declaring God is the only one to be served. Finally, Lucifer suggests Jesus throw himself from the temple roof where he will be caught by angels, proving his divinity to the people. Jesus yells that one should not put God to the test, and Lucifer disappears.

Lucifer appears later as Jesus is having doubts in the Garden of Gethsemane, offering him a way out, and later tells him leap from the cross, but Jesus resists him once more.
