Google Mephistopheles and read the Interpretations section, it's probably more better known simply as Mephisto and that demon does what O'Dimm does but it's not usually that Witcher series have copy paste creatures but instead a mix of multiple mythological creatures or copy homework and change a little bit so teacher won't notice.

I think he is a mix of Mephisto and the devil mentioned already here in the article. Making him a devil. Making him a mix of something else on top of Mephisto eliminates the need of Lucifer in the lore. Mephisto side makes him only punish/trick bad people so Geralt is safe.
