==Was Stocke from Radiant Historia handled like Serph?==
 
Serph is a strange case because your Serph is completely silent, but the original Serph, that you see in a flashback, talks regularly. I heard about an Atlus game named Radiant Historia where the protagonist has a canon name (Stocke) and seems to talk. I would have been very happy to hear that Stocke isn't silent because it could have allowed to give him more character development, however there's a problem: RADIANT HISTORIA IS AN ATLUS GAME (unless I'm confusing it with Radiata Stories), AND ATLUS'S TRADITION IS TO KEEP THE PROTAGONISTS SILENT, so I asked myself wheter the people who said that Stocke talks were referring to the Stocke controlled by the player or just the original Stocke you see in flashbacks while the Stocke you control only answers with Yes/No choices. The hypothesis that Stocke talks is supported by the fact that in TVTropes Serph is heroic mime, but Stocke seems to not be one despite the fact that it isn't explicitly said that they averted that trope (just like Maximilian from Dark Cloud 2 and Sorey from Tales of Zestiria, despite Toan from Dark Cloud and Ludger from Xillia 2 count as heroic mimes). So, was Stocke handled like Serph or he's the only Atlus protagonist who has a personality?

==Opening Quote==

Shouldn't we add a quote from the novel in the opening? I know he has no lines in-game, but in the novel he does, and there he's surprisingly talkative for a Megaten protagonist. Even if he had no lines in-game, Yu Narukami had a quote from the anime, so why can't Serph have one too?  [[Special:Contributions/37.182.55.23|37.182.55.23]] 20:12, September 25, 2017 (UTC)Vittorio Pugliese

Move Articles?

Do we move this article to -real- Serph's full name (Serph Sheffield), or create another article entitled Serph Sheffield, or just leave as it is? -- N/A 08:36, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

That would be a spoiler and where are talking about the Playable Serph not of his Doppelganger --I need ur Halp! 23:10, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
So Serph Sheffield's information should be inputted in this article? -- N/A 08:53, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

I think you should put the relation they have only and make a separate article for the other Serph --I need ur Halp! 16:05, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

Protagonist

Isn't Serph the protagonist of Digiatal Devil Saga 2? or just a playable character.

Was Stocke from Radiant Historia handled like Serph?

Serph is a strange case because your Serph is completely silent, but the original Serph, that you see in a flashback, talks regularly. I heard about an Atlus game named Radiant Historia where the protagonist has a canon name (Stocke) and seems to talk. I would have been very happy to hear that Stocke isn't silent because it could have allowed to give him more character development, however there's a problem: RADIANT HISTORIA IS AN ATLUS GAME (unless I'm confusing it with Radiata Stories), AND ATLUS'S TRADITION IS TO KEEP THE PROTAGONISTS SILENT, so I asked myself wheter the people who said that Stocke talks were referring to the Stocke controlled by the player or just the original Stocke you see in flashbacks while the Stocke you control only answers with Yes/No choices. The hypothesis that Stocke talks is supported by the fact that in TVTropes Serph is heroic mime, but Stocke seems to not be one despite the fact that it isn't explicitly said that they averted that trope (just like Maximilian from Dark Cloud 2 and Sorey from Tales of Zestiria, despite Toan from Dark Cloud and Ludger from Xillia 2 count as heroic mimes). So, was Stocke handled like Serph or he's the only Atlus protagonist who has a personality?

Opening Quote

Shouldn't we add a quote from the novel in the opening? I know he has no lines in-game, but in the novel he does, and there he's surprisingly talkative for a Megaten protagonist. Even if he had no lines in-game, Yu Narukami had a quote from the anime, so why can't Serph have one too?  37.182.55.23 20:12, September 25, 2017 (UTC)Vittorio Pugliese
