Mephistopheles

Mephistopheles is one of the seven princes of Hell. He the demon to whom Dr. Faustus sells his soul in the Faust legend. Unlike other demons who actively try to corrupt men, Mephistopheles comes only when summoned by one who is already dammed. In the legend he makes an attempt to warn Faust of the dangers of Hell, but still happily accepts his soul at the conclusion.
