Loved reading this. I've never read Paradise Lost, I tried but it was Dad's old Copy from when he was and English Major at University and I kept getting distracted by his notes in the margins. Anyway, I loved the association you've drawn between him and Satan.
I thought it was interesting that Cecilia is meant to play the role of Sin since she is supposed to the epitome of Squeaky Clean and Virtue for her father. Though of course she strays from that when she defies him I guess.

And Max being Death was wonderfully appropriate.
