O.K. so shin has a point...even though the Barlog looks cool; I'm not really sure if either one would work.

As for Bahamut, isn't he from Middle Eastern folklore----like a dragon? (Didn't find too many definitive pics---I know there is a D&D one).

shinmusashi44 wrote:Actually satan never looked like a winged bull creature. His from is of an angel with 6 pairs of wings and has white skin. It wasnt till the dark ages that christians started drawing him that way. The demon look of Lucifer is based off of a wiccan god. I forgot the name. But he looks like a goat. Satan is also based off of the norse goddess Hel. As you can see by her name. The christians added a L to the end of Hel and used it in their version of hell. Most of the satan myth is based off of other "evil" myth around europe.
