How Satan Was Cast
The Bible offers no physical description of Satan. He could look like just
about anyone (or anything). In the Gospels and Job he seems to be written of
in fairly anthropomorphic terms, in Revelation he is equated with a dragon
and a serpent, and yet he also sits on a throne.
Traditional depictions of Satan have several trademark features: horns, a
tail, a red body, a pitchfork, a mustache and a pointy goatee. Often he
looks like a human, but things like the horns and tail give him a decidedly
beastly quality.

I’m happy with the choice of Satan, altho I prefer a larger, more beastial
depiction.
Perhaps I can suggest using different versions of Satan to depict the different
ways that Satan acts. My reading of the Bible has suggested that perhaps Satan
isn’t one clearly defined individual the way Jesus et al are.
IE, if Satan is depicted in Hell - he could have the Quirrel face to show the
mark of being cast out by god or acting in a more base (rather than clever) form
of evil. etc
BTW, love reading the latest updates - particularly funny and thoughtful.
