Like SARS said, the word "Satan" has been picked up over the years and misused.

Not that there is a correct name for "the devil" as it is, but it's name according to Christianity, the Bible and even *shudders* the (slightly over-rated) Paradise Lost; is Lucifer - which means something similar to the Bright Shiner (or some close apoximation - I've misplaced my mythology work).

But even my Oxford dictionary has next to Lucifer "Satan, the Devil" as it's description. Which pretty much just goes to show that the word is more colloqiual than anything else; and just tends to be focused on Lucifer.

Edit: Actually I think Lucifer "means" The Morning Star, not sure why I thought it was something like Bright Shiner - I don't know, maybe there is a meaning somewhere similar to that.

Exactly. Remember, the guys at Konami aren't trying to make every little word significant.

i thought Lucifir ment "light bearer"

the idea of "satin" being there so the players understand sounds plausabe....if the Zexen "evil king of the dead" was called Davirgual, and they didn't mention ol' Davi no one would know.
