Forums - General Discussion - Can you figure out this riddle? (Solved)

I decided to write a small but challanging riddle (I might turn this into a thing) to see if the collective brainpower of this website can solve it.
I don't know what I'll do for the winner (hopefully there wont be one) but something will be awarded.. I guess.

Anyway the riddle is as follows:

"The lord of avians looks upon thee and stands as the 

Greatest
Of
All
Time

and speaks of his awful impact with the ground"

Who am I referring to?

 

Congrats to forest-spirit for solving the riddle by correctly answering Lucifer/The Devil

EXPLANATION:

"Lord of Avians" Avians are birds, or more simply explained as 'flying' beings. Lord of flying beings can be extrapolated as Lord of Flies. Satan can often be referred to as the 'Lord of the flies' or 'Beelzebub'

 

"Greatest of all time" the formatting for it in the riddle highlights the first letter in the phrase, which spells GOAT, which is often used as an abbreviation for the aforementioned phrase. The Goat is often used as describing certain characteristics of lucifer in many forms of art. Horns are also seen as evil and demonic, hence the 'hand signal' used by rock/metal fans signifying horns.

 

"awful impact with the ground" As we all know from the mythology, Lucifer is a fallen angel, where this part of the riddle takes the 'fall' literally as you can only impact with the ground if you have 'tripped' or have 'fallen' this is the part that gave it away to the winner who figured it out, not much more detail to go into here.




I tried making this REALLY hard and I'm surprised it was solved, I may do another one of these to catch you clever mofo's out.

Thanks for actually taking part you guys! :)

PlayStation 2?

It was a pretty fly console and mine fell on the ground, once. It was pretty awful.
