“ | So the Nahobino make themselves known again, after all this time. Knowledge and Life had remained seperate until now. Perhaps the future is secured.

Summary[]
Nahobino (ナホビノ*)? is an entity in Shin Megami Tensei V. It generally refers to the protagonist of the game and Aogami's body from having fused together, but is not strictly limited to them, as it's merely a forbidden being. It is described to resemble neither human nor demon, but rather, it's like a god. After ending up in the world of Da'at, the Nahobino must decide what he wants the world to become, as more of its history is unraveled, in a race for the Throne of Creation.

Nahobino utilizes elemental magic, light and dark, and a myriad of ailments, evolving endlessly to where God ordered the Condemnation on beings like him due to his power)
Weaknesses: His abilities gradually drain his mental and spiritual energy.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Buffs and Debuffs: A set of skills that, as the name implies, allows the caster to greatly amplify their own physical attributes and reduce that of their foes, thus allowing one to stand up to much stronger opponents by closing or even reversing the gap in power between them. Outside of gameplay limitations, they can be stacked indefinitely, and sufficient usages of buffs allow the caster to survive attacks that would otherwise obliterate them with only minor injuries and amplify their speed to the point of completely outspeeding opponents that could previously predict all of their movements, while debuffs have a directly proportional effect on the enemy's statistics.
- Luster Candy: Increases all statistics of an entire party (Strength, speed and durability) by one rank.
- Debilitate: Decreases all statistics of an entire party (Strength, speed and durability) by one rank.
- Dekaja: Removes all buffs from all foes.
- Dekunda: Removes all debuffs from himself and all allies.
Almighty Attacks: The highest class of spells in the Megami Tensei franchise, consisting largely of powerful non-elemental attacks that have the special property of completely bypassing any resistances or immunities that a target may possess, be them innate or magically enforced, with the latter of which including anything from reflective barriers to items that distort the very laws of the universe in order to protect the user from all forms of damage, and they are likewise unable to blocked, dodged or drained. Lucifer's arsenal is vast, and includes the powers of every Demon under his command, as they are nothing but facets of himself, but some of the most notable spells he has access to are:
- Megidola and Megidolaon: Unleashes a wave of destructive energy which deals heavy damage to all foes to different degrees each, and also has the added effect of forcibly dragging an opponent into its area of effect should they be outside of it, engulfing them in "the complete annihilation beyond death."
- Big Bang: Severe Almighty attack based on level to all demons.
