History Characters / DevilSurvivor

* ImpossiblyCoolClothes - The sleeves of her Shomonkai robes are ''linked'' together in one big, sweeping loop that drapes low behind her back. Somehow, she has absolutely no problem moving gracefully in this.

* GracefulLoser - [[spoiler: After defeating him in Atsuro's route, he, quote, "concedes defeat", admits that he underestimated the group and agrees to help them with the server.]]

Voiced by TakashiroMizushima on the drama CD.

* TheAntichrist - Depending on your choices

* {{Hypocrite}} - Rags on about not relying on others, but his entire plan depends on the MC. [[Spoiler: Will not be happy if called on it.]]

* Bishounen - Shares this trait with the MC. It's even lampshaded early on in the game, his face being described as handsome, though no one says it outright--it's stated by the game text.

'''Azuma''' -- An important figure in the Shomonkai. Tall, dark, and mysterious. [[spoiler: Also helped cause Aya's disappearance, has designs on Haru, happens to be selling [=COMPs=] on the side for a tidy profit... And isn't as smart or untouchable as he ''thinks'' he is.]]

* BadassLongRobe - Azuma's battle sprite sports a long robe complete with DramaticWind.

'''Shoji''' -- An IntrepidReporter investigating the 'Toyko Lockdown' on her own, hoping to uncover the truth behind what's going on. Can be a good source of information, due to this.

'''Gigolo''' -- A {{Casanova}} that pops up from time to time to provide [[MrExposition helpful amounts of exposition]] when he feels like it. He has some history with Naoya and is incredibly knowledgeable on the history of the demonic world and [[spoiler:the Throne of Bel]]. His [[NoNameGiven name is unknown]] ("???"), so he is identified by his dialogue boxes as "Gigolo". [[spoiler:His true identity is Loki, ''the'' trickster god from NorseMythology and the BigBad in the original novel (''Megami Tensei'') that started the franchise]].

'''The Hero''' -- [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair Blue-haired]] seventeen-year-old who always wears a distinctive set of headphones.

'''Yuzu Tanikawa''' -- The hero's childhood friend, and TheChick of the ThreeAmigos. ''Really'' not too happy about being caught in the lockdown, and desperately wants to escape. Atsuro calls her 'Yoohoo'; she ''hates'' that nickname, but can't seem to escape ''that'' either. Not very good with computers, [[TheWatson allowing Atsuro to explain lots of things for 'her' benefit]].

'''Atsuro Kihara''' -- One of the hero's friends from school, and a computer whiz. Considers himself Naoya's apprentice, and loves all things technological... and [[MrExposition explaining them]] in simple terms for Yuzu's sake. Gets all starry-eyed when excited. [[spoiler: While he thinks that the best way to deal with the crisis is figure out how to completely control all the demons, he'll support his friend no matter ''what'' he decides.]]

'''Naoya''' -- The hero's twenty-four year old cousin and brother figure, and a genius programmer. Gave the hero and his friends their [=COMPs=] shortly before the plot hit Toyko; his motives for doing so are shrouded in mystery.

'''Misaki Izuna''' -- A member of the Japan Special Defense Forces who is absolutely dedicated to ensuring the lockdown is a complete success. After all, she's well aware that there are worse options out there...

* BerserkButton: [[spoiler:He's protective of Midori as is, and will fight for her life, but if you attack her after shes helped you, God help you...]]

* [[spoiler: CruelAndUnusualDeath - If you don't keep Kaido from tracking him down, Pazuzu grabs him by the neck and ''fries him alive'', turning him into a charred corpse right in front of you.]]

* KnightInSourArmor - More obvious after [[spoiler: his KnightTemplar stint. Assuming, of course, he lives past that point.]]

* [[spoiler: RedemptionEqualsLife - Literally. You either redeem him, making him stop his crusade, or Kaido kills him]]
