Detailed explanation-1: -Satan, as God himself, has followers who are entities, but in Milton’s Paradise Lost they are recognized as evil entities, prepared to do anything in order to be accepted in Satan’s Pandemonium. These followers are the fallen angels who have established their own religions, now known as pagan religions.
Detailed explanation-2: -Throughout the poem, Satan shows that he possesses no shortage of attributes that are outright admirable and are shared with literary heroes across histo-ry. Milton’s Satan is charismatic, courageous, witty, convincing, a brilliant speaker, and has an indomitable will.
Detailed explanation-3: -In Paradise Lost, Satan falls from the heavenly spheres, plunging through nightmarish limbo for nine days, and landing in the depths of Hell. Yet, prior to his descent into Hell, Satan belonged in Heaven, an archangel named Lucifer, a rational and perfect being created by God.
