All these comparisons to satan are patently inaccurate. That's a religion with one God and one bad figure in the form of satan.
It's not the same as a world with multiple religions and hundreds of different monster races; it's a wonder anyone in that setting can keep anything straight in their heads.
People are projecting what they know from reading setting books onto NPCs in the most two dimensional manner possible.
At the end of the day, if that's the way you want to look at it, fine. Unfortunately, I have zero interest in playing that game because I think the depth is shallow. (Luckily, that's not the game I'm playing.)

Again, if that's the way people want to play things, by all means. I can't get on board, though. I think insisting that an onyx circlet is a sure fire sign that someone worships Shar is ridiculous. Even coupled with round black circles on the shoulders of the armor (which is a look that's been updated in various patches, I believe).
But whatever, sure, maybe the armor is a uniform and everyone who worships Shar gets it as a sign on bonus.
