Shin Megami Tensei IV

"The name of the beast that the mystic Aleister Crowley called himself. It refers to the beast that appears in the Book of Revelations. According to Revelations, Therion is the enemy of humanity, a beast with the power and authority of Satan. The beast is said to come from the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, a body like a leopard and legs like a bear. Another beast with lamb's horns is said to come from the earth, forcing man to worship the beast from the sea. Everyone must also bear the mark of the beast, the number 666, on their hand or forehead, or they cannot buy or sell goods."

Knowing that Flynn was not part of the ritual he informs him that Master Therion has the right to do whatever he wishes, and that he will slay those who get in his way.
