Satan makes a large number wicked (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

devil

'satan' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'a large number wicked' is the wordplay.
'a large number' becomes 'd' (five hundred in Roman numerals).
'wicked' becomes 'evil' (synonyms).
'd'+'evil'='DEVIL'

'makes' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for devil that I've seen before include "Lucifer" , "Imp" , "Coat spicily; do hackwork" , "Wicked person" , "Unsurpassed" .)
