devil
From Trekipedia
In the Abrahamic faiths of Earth, the devil was a being who tempted Humans to commit evil deeds.[1] The term was also used as a mild curse.[1][2] One of the names for the devil was Lucifer, who was featured as a character in John Milton's Paradise Lost. Khan Noonien Singh referred to the book when facing exile to Ceti Alpha V; in the book, Lucifer stated, "It is better to reign in Hell than to serve in Heaven."[3] Kirk once compared Spock to the devil in an attempt to provoke an emotional reaction from the Vulcan, who was under the influence of alien spores.[4]
