What makes people take up an adversary figure largely attested in literature where loss and defeat is more or less rigid fate/prophecy?

Noanswers that hinge on a non-theistic viewpoint

Are underdog stories that seductive?

Even if you are breaking from Christian culture and patriarchy i think there are better ways to do it and better figures to get down with, like ishtar

Satan has nearly unlimited power over the material world that should be seductive enough for power hungry thiests. Especially those who cast him as having stolen or usurped that power.

When I was in middle school I played d&d at this Mormon kids house and his parents heavily edited what we were allowed to do. All wizards and sorcerers had to be evil. The only magic users that we were allowed to play were clerics and bards.

What level and class was Joseph Smith when he cast divination spells to find buried tressure?
