Profile
Megami Tensei II
In a cave referred to as "the gates of Mammon", he guards the entrance. He will only let the hero pass if he gives him Pazuzu's head. He gives him Bael's Claw in order to enter Pazuzu's lair in Shinjuku. When the hero returns with Pazuzu's head, he will fight the hero regardless of his decision to give it to him or not.
Devil Children Red and Black Book
The Tyrant who rules over Fire Land. In Black Book, Mammon reveals to Setsuna Kai that the Demon Lord currently ruling the Expanse is actually the impostor Azel and that the true Demon Lord, Lucifer, is being held prisoner in the depths of Central Land's palace. He also reveals that Lucifer is Setsuna's father.
In Red Book, Mammon tells Mirai Kaname that he knows her father, but doesn't know where he is. Regardless of the version being played, Mammon holds the last Messiah Horn (Black Book) / Messiah Eye (Red Book) but instead of handing it over to the protagonist after challenging them to a battle, the Horn/Eye has to be bought from him for 100,000 Macca.
In the PlayStation version, Mammon is voiced by Akira Ishida.
DemiKids Light & Dark
"A greedy demon who loves to gamble and cheat others of whatever they value most."
Persona 5
Mammon is Kunikazu Okumura's shadow, representing his greed and fixation on ascending into the political world so much so that he is willing to sacrifice his own company, his employees, and even his own daughter as stepping stones to do so. Unlike most other bosses in the game that represent one of the Seven Deadly Sins, he does not transform into a monster nor does he have any offensive abilities, instead summoning his Corporobo minions to attack.
