He appears as the devil whenever he needs to and then fills in any gaps with stories about how the Devil is the boogeyman out to get everybody.
Meh, here in reality, silly stories about angry gods and their phony curses are of no consequence. Sheep are stupid, and should be eaten ... not listened to.
From nothing, nothing comes Cin. The devil -is- part and parcel of god in the mythos. The one cannot be separated from the other as it is merely an extension and offshoot of the source. Those things which the one wants and does are ultimately part and parcel of the things and plans that the other wants and does. Classic yin yang bullshit. Remember, ancient near -EASTERN- myth. Go a little farther afield and you'll be able to find gods and demigods that aren't part of each other, and actively fucking hate each other. This particular myth (the judeo-christian one) is just gaslighting writ large. Celestial division of labor. Ultimately, in the narrative, everyone (you..me, the devil and uncle Bob) is working for the same firm.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
