Sarasvati

Sarasvati, (サラスヴァティ, Sarasuvati)^? is a demon in the series.

HistoryEdit

Hindus believe that Sarasvati is the goddess of knowledge, music and the arts. Sarasvati has been identified with the Vedic Sarasvati River. She is considered as consort of Brahma, the Hindu god of creation. Thus, with the goddesses Lakshmi and Parvati or Durga, she forms the Tridevi, who are consorts of the male trinity of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, respectively. Sarasvati's children are the Vedas, which are the oldest sacred texts of Hinduism. She is known in East Asia as Benzaiten or Biancaitian (弁財天^?, lit. "God of wisdom and wealth"), one of the Seven Lucky Gods.

ProfileEdit

Shin Megami TenseiEdit

Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINEEdit

Sarasvati appears as a regular field boss on Suginami field. She later acts as a boss of the hack dungeon in Ichigaya.

Shin Megami Tensei IVEdit

Sarasvati can be found in Camp Ichigaya. She can teach Flynn the Bufudyne, Rakunda and Mabufudyne skills through her Demon Whisper.

Shin Megami Tensei IV ApocalypseEdit

Sarasvati can be found in Minami Sunamachi. She can teach Nanashi the Bufudyne, Rakunda and Mabufula skills through her Demon Whisper. Sarasvati benefits from learning Ice and support skills.

Persona 3Edit

The MovieEdit

Sarasvati was used by Makoto to cast an ice spell on the Arcana Emperor and Arcana Empress. He obtained her after the Arcana Priestess was defeated.

Persona 5Edit

Sarasvati is the seventh Persona of the Priestess Arcana and can be found as a Shadow in Shido's Palace and in the Sheriruth area of Mementos, with the title "Strumming Veena Player." She is one of only four Personas available to the protagonist to learn the Me Patra skill and one of three to learn the Null Sleep skill. When itemized in the Velvet Room using Electric Chair execution, Sarasvati will yield a Mediarama skill card.

Devil Survivor 2Edit

In the Animation, Otome has Sarasvati as her main demon. Sarasvati is summoned to fight against Phecda, and briefly manages to significantly damage the complete entity with her Drain attack before it separates. The separate halves of Phecda then destroy her, Hibiki's Suzaku and Io's Kikuri-Hime in a single blast of its combined laser.

Sarasvati later briefly appears fighting against a Megrez bud, again using Drain to attack it. However, this did not seem to impede Megrez's progress.
