Shin Megami Tensei Revisions: Demon Physiology

[Yobo_Blue]

The first of many revisions to come.

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Yobo_Blue/Demon_Physiology_(Shin_Megami_Tensei)

This blog is the draft for a verse Power page that compiles already accepted stuff on top of additional abilities supported with scans, both of which need to be added to many outdated profiles.

Discuss.

 

[CrimsonStarFallen]

Seems fine.

 

[Tony_di_bugalu]

What about those that are demi-humans or demi-fiends?

 

[CrimsonStarFallen]

They don't scale to it. Demi Fiend himself didn't gain all the standard demon powers until he became a full demon.

 

[Tony_di_bugalu]

I mean, all of those who are part demon, if there are more than just DF.

 

[CrimsonStarFallen]

Yeah, same with them. They don't scale to it.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

for now

 

[CrusadeGuru]

Interesting

 

[Tony_di_bugalu]

[DMB_1]

Seems fine, though it's missing Magic

Also, I suggest bolding powers/resistances since the Digimon Physiology page and others do that too.

From what I know lore wise, all demons can used at least form of magic. I agree with DMB 1's other points.

 

[Blahblah9755]

If we include elemental, death, holy, and curse manip, should we also include healing, status removal, revival, and the various status effects be included as well? Empathic/fear/mind manip, paralysis, body puppetry, poison manip, disease manip, freezing, petrification, sleep manip, and Bfr are status I know off the top my head. Additionally, should we include almighty stuff?

Additionally, should we include the resistances, absorption's, and reflections to elemental, curse, holy, death, and status?

Would it be better to have elemental, death, curse, holy, status, almighty, and their respective resistances, reflections, and drains listed separately in a section as something like "common additional abilities"?

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Possibly. All demons have the capacity for most skills.

[Elizhaa]

Possibly. All demons have the capacity for most skills.

Well, it is a fact. I think the current demons's profile are the demons at their full potential, too.

 

[Elizhaa]

Bump

What else is left to discuss, Yobo?

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Well, more opinions would be helpful

 

[Mr.Cinos15]

Looks great.

 

[The_Divine_Phoenix]

Seems fine.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Bump

 

[Blahblah9755]

So, everyone agrees to adding skills?

 

[DMB_1]

[Slashermofo]

It would probably be a good idea to add skills, so yeah

 

[PairusDragonoid]

Fligh or levitations is also something that all demoins could have, Summoning, Status Effects, Boost and Curses or bleesings IIRC

 

[Ionliosite]

Fully agree with this.

 

[Blahblah9755]

Here's a list of all status effects I know of/found on the MT wiki (excluding ones I know are exclusive to one demon) and what power I think they would be considered:

Freeze: freezing

Shock: electric paralysis inducement

Poison: poison manip

Paralysis: poison manip/paralysis inducement

Stun: statistics reduction (reactions)

Confuse: mind manip/fear manip

Charm: mind manip/empathic manip

Stone: petrification/stat reduction (durability)

Sleep: sleep inducement

Bind: body puppetry, power null

Bomb: explosion inducement

Happy: mind/empathic manip

Rage: mind/empathic manip

Hungry: mind manip

Sick: disease manip/unconventional statistics reduction

Lost: Bfr

Brand/curse: Regenerationn negation/stamina reduction

Close: power null/empathic manip

Bat: transmutation

Mute/silence: power null

Seal: power null

Forget: memory manip/power null

Weak: resistance nullification

Curse: healing reduction

 

[MYHERO]

I think what Blahblah said is right.

Also we found some evidence to resurrection via energy manipulation as well. Yvel said he will provide the scans here.
