Line 194:
* [[Bragging Rights Reward]]: In ''[[Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne]]'', Cerberus first appears at the Burial Chamber in the Amala Labyrinth's First Kalpa, where it will challenge Hito-Shura to prove his worth as a demon by quickly vanquishing once more those that he has once killed in the Vortex World using the Black Visor. After meeting all the requirements and starting a new cycle, meeting with Cerberus again in the same location will have him take Hito-Shura to his master's resting place instead at the Tomb of Yomi in the hidden 666th floor, where Hito-Shura will receive an extra Press Turn.
* [[Crutch Character]]:
** [[Shin Megami Tensei I]]: Because of Pascal's former loyalty towards his master passed on to him by the fusion, Kerberos can be used even when his level far surpasses that of the
** [[Shin Megami Tensei II]]: Cerberus first joins you on the quest Madam gives you: Find and bring back Hanada. After the quest, he leaves the party. Later when Valhalla is swallowed by Abbadon, you will find him at the former entrance to the city from the underground passageway. He joins your party shortly after meeting him for the 2nd time.
* [[Dummied Out]]: Using a debug code in [[Persona 3]] will allow you access to another Cerberus Persona that knows Great Seal and some Fusion Spells. (Using Great Seal will freeze up the game) When summoned, the white, single-headed lion-esque version appears, suggesting that it's the likeness that may have been planned for official use in the game but later altered, being used instead as a base to create the Beast series shadow.
Line 331:
=== [[Louis Cypher]]/Lucifer ===
[[File:
Lucifer, otherwise known as [[Louis Cypher]], appears first in ''[[Shin Megami Tensei I]]'' and then in the second and third games of the main series. Appearing for the first time [[Man of Wealth and Taste|in a suit]] and giving you cryptic and often misleading information, he shows his true colours when you get the Chaos path ending, appearing as a blonde man with horns and wings swathed in white robes. Just don't confuse him with [[Satan]], who actually works for [[God|YHVH]].
Line 397:
* [[Gag Penis]]
** Once you get over Mara's face, you should notice it riding a golden chariot with many sharp blades. [[Fridge Brilliance|Then you realise it's an embodiment of our dark desire - lust, greed and violence]].
* [[Gender Flip]]: In ''[[Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey]]'', Mara is portrayed as a goddess rather than a god, wielding power over temptation and death, despite retaining the same overall shape (though a local Grendel insisted she was once a beautiful goddess). However, it's possible that the Mara in ''Strange Journey'' is the Hindu Goddess Mara
** In [[Raidou Kuzunoha VS King Abaddon]] which came out before Strange Journey that Mara's compendium info states that he/she used to be a Goddess.
* [[Mythology Gag]]: When in the Chaos Path in ''[[Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey]]'', she posts a mission calling for the death of a Seraph. She'd go herself, [[Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne|but wants to stabilize so she won't]] [[Never Live It Down|become a Slime again]].

[[File:250px-
A mechanical angel that serves as the Voice of God.
Line 463:
=== Pixie ===
[[File:492px-
Pixie is one of the most frequently appearing demons in the Megami Tensei universe. She is almost always the first demon recruited and helps the protagonist through healing.
* [[Breakout Mook Character]]: Stars in a game with Jack Frost and his bros for the Virtual Boy.
* [[Disk One Nuke]]: There is a special staff password in Strange Journey that will unlock a Pixie with special starting stats. The resulting Pixie will only be Lv.1, but will have a magic stat of 10 and a luck stat of 99 along with knowing the skills Megidolaon and Mediarahan.
* [[Fairy Sexy]]
* [[Fiery Redhead]]
Line 482:
=== Satan ===
[[File:250px-
Not to be confused with his archenemy Lucifer, Satan is the ultimate weapon of YHVH and the Law faction, and usually deals God's wrath upon the world.
Line 537:
* [[A Form You Are Comfortable With]]: His trademark appearance is of a large, yellow head. {{spoiler|In [[Strange Journey]]'s [[New Game+]], he assumes a Red Sprite crewmember's form in order to manipulate the PC into freeing his sealed power by slaying Alilat and the Demiurge.}}
* [[As Long as There Is Evil]]: [[Shin Megami Tensei II]] reveals that he will never truly die so long as even a single mortal still believes in him.
* [[Despotism Justifies the Means]]: Doesn't even care about creating a utopia like his followers do; he just wants to control everything forever and ever. As such, he's a much more visible target for [[Complete Monster
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: Not everyone on earth worshiping? ''[[Nuke'Em|Nuke]]'' '''everything''' ''and turn the world into a barren wasteland''. STILL not everyone worshiping? ''[[Kill'Em All|Flood everything]]''.
** In ''[[Raidou Kuzunoha VS King Abaddon]]'' God created the Abysmal Realm and the Apollyons for one of two reasons: to either strike down those who have given into despair out of divine wrath or to leave mankind in awe and restore their faith in him by having the [[Completely Missing the Point|Apollyons kill people which causes them to despair even more]].
