Archetype Villain
If mythology ever spawned a bad guy, it was Seth, the Egyptian god of Chaos. A quick Google search and you’ll find that he killed Osiris, was said to be Satan and was jealous of his family.

Satan, Lucifer, Baal, Beelzebub, etc, are Titles. Any demon can claim them if they can defeat the current holder, or the title itself can be passed on to another.
