Of course, this results in the hateful sentiments ''increasing'' because no one's doing anything about it.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: He takes many forms, including an 11 year old boy. Lampshaded by Tess.
* BigBad: Duh. It's heavily downplayed however as he himself is only responsible for the conflicts of a handful of episodes, with the theme of the show being that [[HumansAreFlawed people are more often than not responsible for their problems]]. [[spoiler:He is, however, the FinalBoss of the show, being responsible for the explosion at the school in the finale]].
* BigRedDevil: Averted most of the time. Satan only ever appears in human form in the show but he does briefly shift to the red part during one of his defeat. Monica lampshades it in the episode where he's played by John Schneider:
--> '''Monica''': I thought that he'd be more scary you know? Fire and brimstone, horns?
* CoatCape: He gets this look during his final confrontation with the angel in "In the Name of God".
* TheCorrupter: Since he has no physical power over people, he gets around this by manipulating them into giving in into their hatred and bad feelings. He acts a lot more subtle in "Netherlands" where he tries to convince Monica of joining him, using the justification of NotEvilJustMisunderstood.
* EvenEvilCanBeLoved: Just before being cast out by Tim in "In the Name Of God", Tess remarks that God loves everyone, including Satan.
--> '''Tess''': And by the way, God loves ''you'' too.

--> '''Tess''': [[ShutUpHannibal Free will is a gift, and love is a choice, and hate leaves you no choice at all]].
* EvilWearsBlack: Many of his human disguises wear dark colored suits.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He's not really scary or intimidating at all, just manipulative. This is most evident when he is played by Mandy Patinkin where he tries ''really'' hard to pretend to be the good guy. He pulls it off very well, acting as the kind and patient guide to Monica, but it's just a facade to manipulate her.
* KnightOfCerebus: He's always played dead seriously and is every bit as evil as one would expect the Devil to be.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: He tries to use the appeal of a human life with a family of her own to tempt Monica into falling from grace.
* ManipulativeBastard: In his suave moods, he can be very manipulative, such as getting Tess [[spoiler:to give into hatred and smack him]] or getting Monica [[spoiler:to come inches from falling from Grace]]. The angels also insist that this is his only real power as he can't actually intervene but can use his word to corrupt others.
--> '''Sam''': He's deceived us all. He's good at it.
* SmugSnake: Especially when he's played by John Schneider, who just ''oozes'' smarm once he's unmasked.
* VillainInAWhiteSuit: In "Netherlands", where he tempts Monica to fall, he first appears as a man in a black suit before switching to a white suit as he insinuates himself in his heart and tries to project an image of LightIsGood.
* WeCanRuleTogether: Tries this on Monica when she has a HeroicBSOD.

!!Fallen Angels
[[folder:Kathleen]]
* EvilCounterpart: To Monica, especially considering they were both caseworker angels who even worked alongside eachother. But the main difference is that Kathleen eventually got bored of saving lives and went rogue, while Monica genuinely enjoyed being a beacon of hope and savior.
* EvilFeelsGood: She even says this.
* EvilFormerFriend: She used to be a close companion to Monica during her days as a search an rescue angel, which just makes her turn to darkness even more personal for Monica.
* FallenHeroine: As a "caseworker" she would save people lives on a regular basis some of which include floods, fires and travelers in peril. But then a some unknown point in time, she soon got bored of constantly saving lives and being on the good side, which made her easy to corrupt into being a follower of the dark side.
* GoodIsBoring: Fallen angel Kathleen once tells Monica this is her justification for switching sides: "I'm having too much fun."
* HeelFaceTurn: She ends up having a redemption in her third in final episode, "Clipped Wings", after she was denied a promotion to demonic "caseworker."]]

* ForTheEvulz: This is the primary reason Satan or his minions, such as [[spoiler:formerly]] fallen angel Kathleen, do anything. Tess lampshades it once: "Evil is for evil's sake, period."

[[folder: Satan]]
-> Played By: Creator/DavidOgdenStiers, Creator/MandyPatinkin, Creator/JohnSchneider
* BitchInSheepsClothing: He takes many forms, including an 11 year old boy. Lampshaded by Tess.
* BigBad: Duh. It's heavily downplayed however as he himself is only responsible for the conflicts of a handful of episodes, with the theme of the show being that [[HumansAreFlawed people are more often than not responsible for their problems]]. [[spoiler:He is, however, the FinalBoss of the show, being responsible for the explosion at the school in the finale]].
* BigRedDevil: Averted most of the time. Satan only ever appears in human form in the show but he does briefly shift to the red part during one of his defeat. Monica lampshades it in the episode where he's played by John Schneider:
--> '''Monica''': I thought that he'd be more scary you know? Fire and brimstone, horns?
* CoatCape: He gets this look during his final confrontation with the angel in "In the Name of God".
* TheCorrupter: Since he has no physical power over people, he gets around this by manipulating them into giving in into their hatred and bad feelings. He acts a lot more subtle in "Netherlands" where he tries to convince Monica of joining him, using the justification of NotEvilJustMisunderstood.
* EvenEvilCanBeLoved: Just before being cast out by Tim in "In the Name Of God", Tess remarks that God loves everyone, including Satan.
--> '''Tess''': And by the way, God loves ''you'' too.
* TheEvilsOfFreeWill: He says as much after being exposed in an episode involving white supremacists. This makes him a {{Foil}} to Tess, who believes that free will can be a hindrance, but is also convinced that this is the only thing that allows love to exist.
--> '''Tess''': That darn free will.
--> '''Satan''': God screwed up, free will is a curse.
--> '''Tess''': [[ShutUpHannibal Free will is a gift, and love is a choice, and hate leaves you no choice at all]].
* EvilWearsBlack: Many of his human disguises wear dark colored suits.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He's not really scary or intimidating at all, just manipulative. This is most evident when he is played by Mandy Patinkin where he tries ''really'' hard to pretend to be the good guy. He pulls it off very well, acting as the kind and patient guide to Monica, but it's just a facade to manipulate her.
* KnightOfCerebus: He's always played dead seriously and is every bit as evil as one would expect the Devil to be.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: He tries to use the appeal of a human life with a family of her own to tempt Monica into falling from grace.
* ManipulativeBastard: In his suave moods, he can be very manipulative, such as getting Tess [[spoiler:to give into hatred and smack him]] or getting Monica [[spoiler:to come inches from falling from Grace]]. The angels also insist that this is his only real power as he can't actually intervene but can use his word to corrupt others.
