- Devil figure
- Some critics believe Mephistopheles is a possible lover for Faustus
- Mephistopheles could be Faustus' alter-ego; a construction of his suppressed feelings
- Mephistopheles could be a distortion of the Christian angel.. no God, only the Devil
- Some critics believe Mephistopheles is the demon who comes to collect the souls of those already damned, rather than a figure of temptation
- Mephistopheles serves the Devil, rather than being the Devil, and acts as a physical representation on Earth
