The devil is everyone's nightmare. What does your nightmare look like?It feeds off your worst fears. It can take shape of anything, anyone.
Well, you did ask? lol
I would think the devil is beautiful. After all, Lucifer was beautiful. I do not think he would lose it despite what he did. I would also think he would prefer to retain that look because it would be easier for people to willingly follow and worship a beautiful being than a hideous goat demon.
I agree with Lana. I know people slate her performance in the movie, but I loved Liz Hurley in Bedazzled! If you believe that the devil is out to capture human souls, looking repulsive is not going to be much of a business asset.
For those who have not read John Milton, in Christianity, Lucifer was the Angel of Light, the most beautiful of all the angels; his descent into snake was after his fall and the temptation of Adam and Eve. Evil can take many forms including the beautiful and that is the most terrifying of all.
I've written The Devil/Lucifer as a character before. I always sort of pictured him in his human form looking like Quentin Tarantino in a nice suit. ... Is that weird?

I think Quentin Tarantino is a good start, but I would make him more urbane and less frenetic.
Or, he could just be a 'presence' - possibly embodied in this -FREE for the rest of the day on Kindle. And Devilish.
The Fart
Lana wrote: "I kinda figure the devil to look like Colin Farrell."That would lessen the blow to being sent down to Hell... Anyway, I would join everyone else in plugging my book about the devil but I haven't got one, so I'll plug this one instead: Fisher of Devils. Apparantly it's very funny.

Certainly. I can imagine Satan would be able to keep his hands still while talking for more than 2.5 seconds.
Although, I'm liking Colin Farrell now... LOL!
I suppose I will throw my plug in as well! LOL!! The devil does not make a formal appearance in this book. He sends a minion. http://www.amazon.com/Ethereal-Influe...
