compatibility quirks.

[inthe_details]

Finally, I would like to make the Devil cross-canon compatible! However, this is not possible for all cases when the Devil shows up in other canons, such as Angel Sanctuary, or is heavily referenced, such as Supernatural. If for some reason the different worlds card needs to be played, then tell me so she can be appropriately not clued in on the

LOL.

Um.

HI WE SHOULD TALK lolol.

[inthe_details]

Talk to me, baby. I can't imagine what your canon could have possibly done to the underworld.

[tobethemiracle]

The Lone Power in YW terms is the Devil! It is intent on killing every YW wizard it comes acros and destroying life as we know it because it wants to prove that death was a good idea to its younger siblings and that life is boring.

It also tears apart the universe as a distraction in order to try and prevent its good analogue from becoming a Power itself.

I think we've been assuming that all Devil analogues that come to camp are Not The Lone Power? idk.

[tobethemiracle]

ALTHOUGH if you wanted to play the morally ambiguous devil, that'd work pretty well.

THEY'LL JUST. UH. ALSO ASSUME THAT SHE IS A BIT HAPPY TO DROP SUNS ON PEOPLE TOO.

I think you well know you are not my Devil. XD

[inthe_details]

No, I'm afraid not. But I would like to harass the hell out of Raphael and Michael, so do you think something could be arranged?

. . . Personally, the thought of Kira slinking around with Liz Hurley amuses me.

[sistercomplex]

I'm cool with the idea of them hanging but as far as her being the Devil, it's gotta be some joint deal or she has to be a step below or whatever. That Kira is Lucifer is essential to Setsuna's development, especially at camp. Whether he likes to acknowledge it or not.

Also note, in AS devils/satans are high-up demons. Like Hatter is a devil. Whereas the lesser demons are evils. Lucifer is technically the DEVIL but he's LUCIFER.

Hmm. . . Different World card is out, then. Thanks for the brush up on AS.

... For Shadow Hearts I don't even know. The Devil doesn't show up but there's a lot of talk about God and it's definitely Earth and. And. IDK, MAN.

CASTMATES, HELP A VAMPIRE OUT

Mikage will have to apply to Different World, and probably the rest of the 07-Ghost cast too. Verloren is their canon equilvalent of the Devil.

I thought as much! So, it shall be then.

I'd say...probably not in DDS? There's no Devil, just God (who's more drawn from Hinduism than Christianity), so it's theoretically possible! But when God's destroying the earth and the demon virus is turning humanity into cannibal demons, the Devil seems a little redundant. And there's only one afterlife, so...I'm really inclined to say the Devil doesn't exist in DDSverse.

[inndependent]

Satan is an optional boss though -- you have to be in a second playthrough, otherwise your party is "overcome by despair" and is turned away -- but he's there!

[ovoretherainbow]

I'd forgotten about him! Probably because I am way too lazy to beat another one of Megaten's "You're going to die. Repeatedly. Even at level 99 with maxed-out stats. AND WE WILL MOCK YOUR PAIN" optional bosses XD

But yeah, that could easily mean the Devil exists in DDS!

[inndependent]

Yeah, given that's he's an atlus optional boss, I am completely willing to BELIEVE being overcome by despair and turning back. I mean, that's just a good call, right there. |D
