The Kishin (鬼神, kishin lit. "demon god" or "fierce god") or Guardian are all patron gods or warrior deities from various pantheons or countries. They protect a specific direction, race or country accordingly. Most of them however, are derived from Far Eastern mythology. They are generally physically overwhelming demons, and are all capable of utilizing weapons. With few exceptions, the Buddhist Four Heavenly Kings always make their appearance in every single Shin Megami Tensei installment.

The Kishin race has the Double Up Racial Skill, which allows their team to attack opposing teams up to 2 times during a single turn. Combined with the Beast's Animal Leg skill, it allows a single team to attack two separate enemy teams in one turn, or when combined with the Dragon's or Vile's Evil Wave and Chaos Wave skills, it allows a team to attack an enemy twice without any worry of retaliation, provided they remain outside that enemy's range.
