Line 28:
* The wizard {{spoiler|Pralaya}} in ''The Wizard's Dilemma'' (Diane Duane's [[Young Wizards]] series) is "overshadowed" by the Lone Power (meaning, possessed by the Devil, basically).
* Played in a wonderful subversion in Heinlein's ''[[Literature/Job A Comedy Of Justice|Job A Comedy Of Justice]]'' when the protagonist finds out that the only friend he and his wife made through their ordeal was actually the devil himself. Not only had he shown him genuine mercy and friendship, he had ''turned down'' the bet with God, thinking it sick and cruel.
* In the backstory of ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'', Sauron presented himself to the Elves of Eregion as 'Annatar', the Lord of Gifts, and with their help made the Rings.
