The protagonist of Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner is a young man in his 20s[1] who ends up in the body of Kyouji Kuzunoha. His occupation is decided by the player.


Appearances[]

Personality[]

In the tradition of Shin Megami Tensei series, he is a silent protagonist, where his personality is based upon players' actions and decisions.

Profile[]

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner[]

The protagonist is attacked by demons at an Amusement Park, but he is saved by Kyouji Kuzunoha. However, the protagonist is later trapped in a warehouse by Sid Davis. Sid sadistically hunts and kills the protagonist. The protagonist's spirit possesses the recently deceased body of Kyouji, the man who had saved him before. He then begins a quest to find a way to return to his original body and eliminate the demons haunting Hirasaki City. At the end of the game, when asked by Rei Reiho what his real name is, he can choose to inherit Kyouji's name or use his own name. Either way, he continues to stop demons from causing destruction in the city.

Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers[]

The protagonist appears as the ultimate Boss in the Extra Dungeon, having the demons Metatron, Kali, Anat, Shiva and Vishnu assisting him. Beating him only yields a special congratulatory message. His demons have powerful high-leveled spells, which requires one to be very prepared before fighting him.

In the 3DS version of the Extra Dungeon, Raidou Kuzunoha the XIV and Raido Kuzunoha the XIV are fought following the battle against him.

Megami Ibunroku Persona[]

He appears in inverted colors on Masao Inaba's shirt, and a poster of him can be found in the Mikage Subway.
