This article is about the in-game feature. For list of demons, see category:Demon List.

The Demonic Compendium (悪魔全書, Akuma Zensho)?, known as the Persona Compendium (ペルソナ全書, Perusona Zensho)? in the Persona series, is an archive of every demon (or Persona) fused, evolved, and recruited throughout the game. The Compendium is located in the facility which player usually fuses demons if the function is not mobile (e.g. Cathedral of Shadows, Gouma-Den or Velvet Room). The Demonic Compendium was first introduced in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne and has since become a fundamental feature of other installments afterward, including the remakes of older titles.

The Game Boy Advance and mobile versions of Shin Megami Tensei and Shin Megami Tensei II included a mode called the A-Mode DDS. One feature the mode does is to allow players to look into the background of most of the demons found in the game that is being played at. This includes the recruitable demons, as well as demons and some beings that are enemy and boss exclusive only.

For the Devil Children series, the Demonic Compendium is known as the Devidass, localized as Demonary in DemiKids Dark Version and Light Version.

Features[]

  • Records recruited or fused demons: Demon data is registered automatically when a new demon is recruited or fused.
  • Summoning registered demons: Pay money to instantly summon a demon from registered data without recruitment or retraining. The cost of summoning scales with registered level, stats, elemental affinities and skills. Compendium Tickets in Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse waive cost once per ticket, and DLC Personas starting from Persona 5 allow the protagonist to summon them once without paying for their price.
  • If the demon's level, skills or stats have been modified after registration or if the protagonist has obtained a demon with different attributes than the original, the protagonist may overwrite the older demon data with the data from the newer ones. The games also allow protagonist to quick-register all demons with modified data. After the first summoning, once must manually choose to register demons again.
  • Reviewing demon data: read demon's in-game parameters or a brief mythological background. In Shin Megami Tensei IV, Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse, and Shin Megami Tensei V, it was possible to see the background of an ally, enemy, or boss exclusive character/demon (such as Panagia Tao, Gaea Man, and Nahobino Tsukuyomi.
