IC INFORMATION
Character Name: Kazuya Minegishi
Species: Bel Demon, Formerly human.
Canon: Devil Survivor: Overclocked
Canon Point: Post Day 8, Warlord Route.
Character Age: 18.
CRAU: No
CRAU Explanation: N/A
Character Appearance: Here
Powers and Abilities:
Here is a link to all of the abilities that Kazuya can use canonically. The only ones under Unique he would be able to use are the following: Lost Flame, Spawn, Hot Flower, Fervid Flame, and Vampiric Mist, as these are the skills unique to the other Bel Demons he's consumed.
As for non-listed game abilities:
Teleportation / Flight: Obviously this will only work within the confines of the setting, and as for his teleportation, it'll only work on places that are public / that he has permission to be in / teleport too.
Demon Summoning: As he has complete sovereignty over all the demons in DeSu, and can technically summon them as he pleases, for the sake of fairness I'm happy to limit the demons he is able to summon to 2 at a time much like how teams work in the game. He will be unable to summon any demons listed under Divine.
Elemental / Physical Resistance: Technically, he should take less damage / no damage from everything, but for the sake of RP, I'll leaving it at Absorbing Fire aspected skills / abilities, a weakness to Ice/Holy aspected skills/abilities, and neutral damage from Physical & Almighty skills abilities.
Physical Regeneration: In the manga, he's shown to be able to regenerate exceptionally fast from mortal wounds, getting back up after Loki had punched a hole through his chest cavity only a few seconds later.
Increased Strength/Speed: Absorbing the powers of the other Bels in game has the effect of increasing his speed and range of movement, meaning it probably is fair to say that he's able to move faster than a normal person. As the King of Bel, all of his physical ability has also been increased to an absurd degree, despite having the muscle definition of a piece of spaghetti.
Magnetite Consumption: Demons in Desu consume an energy called magnetite. What it is is mostly vague other than stating that humans have it in abundance, and that's why demons like to eat them, and that it helps them use their powers. Think of it as a combination of emotion, willpower, and life force. Demons can absolutely smell it on a person, as well as their emotional state. Stronger emotions = More Tasty.
Kazuya also in theory has the ability to shapeshift / manifest more demonic looking parts of himself, if the manga is anything to go off of (Wings/Claws/HIS STUPID VAMPIRE ASS CLOAK OF DARKNESS). It wouldn't be a stretch either, considering that other demons are able to shapeshift as well, and it makes sense that he'd be able to do it as well, as their king and someone with the power to have killed God.
What Did Your Character Wish For? His humanity/soul back while still being considered the King Of Bel (technically an impossible wish, since being the King of Bel negates having his soul/humanity)
What Potion Did They Receive? Golden!
Did They Drink It? Absolutely chugged it. 0 Hesitation.
Character Questions:
1. Who is the person your character is most bonded with from their canon? Or who is someone they miss the most?
This is a two-for-one special. Kazuya can't miss Yuzu without missing Atsuro as well. Both of them mean the world to him, and everything he does over the course of the game revolves around doing what he thinks would be best for them.
2. What are they most afraid of?
His friends dying, mostly. Secondarily, dying himself. He's so afraid of the former happening that he's quick to jump to their defense, putting himself between a summoned demon and them and actively attacking it with a nearby metal pipe, of which he jams into the demons throat to defeat it. While he'd taken a mortal blow to do it, a quick heal with a Dia spell from one of his friends was able to sufficiently stop him from bleeding out and dying.
3. What is their weakness? Emotionally, mentally and physically? CW: Suicidal Ideation Mention
Emotionally, Kazuya has big feelings about the people he cares for. While this could be seen as a positive, he's not totally above stooping to less than ideal means to make sure they're safe. Happy? Debatable, but definitely safe. Mentally, while he's an exceptionally intelligent person and particularly quick to catch onto things, he also has been shown to have chronic Foot In Mouth disease, leading him to outright ask a suicidal character why she wanted to kill herself with absolutely no build up, among other things. As for physically? He's 5'9 and 130lbs soaking wet. Without any of his powers, he's just A Guy with exceptional cardio.
When it comes to having his powers, I'll be absolutely having his physical weakness as ice because It's Funny.
4. What would make them happiest?
Kazuya would honestly love nothing more than just to be with his friends and hang out. Seriously. He's a pretty simple guy.
5. Whatβs their type for a lover?
Hilariously enough, I don't believe he has a "type". Instead, it really just boils down to anyone who he thinks he can trust and who he feels has a good understanding of him completely. His childhood friend Yuzu fits this, as does his other friend Atsuro. He trusts both of them enough that he'll even let them talk for him in certain situations.
Samples: TDM Toplevel Here
If there's anything you'd like clarification on / would like to nerf, feel free to let me know! I'm more than happy to work within the confines of the setting and what the mod team wishes. I know Kazuya has an Insane Power list.

APPLICATION
AGE: 31
CONTACT:yakule
CHARACTER(S): N/A
AGE: 18
SUITABILITY: Kazuya is the king of demons on his route, is 18+, and quite frankly, used to weird demon shit by this point. He had to fight a horny version of someone he just met because she was possessed by a horny demon. He ate that horny demon, and now that horny demon is inside him. Presumably under control. To say nothing of the plethora of demons that are shaped like dicks or vaginas or for some reason just absolutely covered in boobs.
CANON: Devil Survivor: Overclocked
CANON POINT: Post 8th Day, Warlord route.
ABILITIES: Devil Survivor has an incredibly large amount of skills, some stated and some more implied. For simplicities sake, I'll only list the ones I think would need to be nerfed. Kazuya will not have access to any of the skills that are labeled as Unique on those lists.
Teleportation: While it'd be neat to keep this one, the nerf I propose for this is that he needs IC permission to just pop into peoples rooms, and that permission can be revoked at any time.
Demon Summoning: As he has complete sovereignty over all the demons in DeSu, and can technically summon them as he pleases, I think it'd be good to keep this to one demon able to be summoned (you know. for sex reasons if anyone down for a demon threesome), with all of their abilities nerfed into the dirt so that even regular humans could realistically fight them.
Magic Ability: Has enough magical power in him to kill god. He can use either elemental spells, almighty (Neutral) spells, or curse (mental / your basic petrification/paralysis/etc) spells.
Other than that, I think his magic ability in regards to spells would be limited by the suit he's assigned as is, so no incredible resort destroying explosions for him. Same goes for his incredible physical power as well.
Kazuya also in theory has the ability to shapeshift / manifest more demonic looking parts of himself, if the manga is anything to go off of. It wouldn't be a stretch either, considering that other demons are able to shapeshift as well, and it makes sense if he'd be able to do it as well, as their king and someone with the power to have killed God.
VICES: -Indecisive: Kazuya is shown to be more than a little indecisive, bemoaning the fact that if he doesn't have the right information, then he can't make any choices. It's this that has him making most choices last minute, even if they're incredibly important ones (Such as if he's going to become the messiah for god, or the overlord of demons, or even just following Atsuro's plan and subjugating all the demons, or going with Yuzu and just leaving the lockdown).
-Wrath: Kazuya can be a particularly wrathful individual, so long as the situations are right. He has no problems physically attacking the demons who are hurting his friends to the point that what he does to them is extreme, and he has no problems doing the same for humans or angels either. Anyone who gets in the way of him living his life as he chooses can be met with an extreme amount of violence. Even more so now that he's consumed the other Bel demons, and has made their wrath his own.
VIRTUES: +Compassionate: Kazuya is also an incredibly patient and normally mild mannered individual. He cares a lot about the people around them, and his friends most of all. He offers to let Yuzu stay with him when her parents are fighting, he takes his time to make sure Midori understands that even if she uses her demons to help people, they might not see it as that. Even when Naoya, the reincarnation of the Biblical Cain, calls him his pawn, Kazuya simply asks if he was a good one. Not because he believes that he's Naoya's pawn, but because that he can see that Naoya has been hurting for so long, and Kazuya wants to ease that. It's also the reason that he becomes the Overlord of Demons, so that humans will never have to go through another of God's trials.
+Perseverance: Lack of surprise here, since Kazuya was able to consistently rewrite his deathclock during the lockdown, the thing that would tell him he had "0" days to live very, very frequently. On top of that, he's able to hold his own against the so called Immortal Demon, Beldr and consume his power as his own while he's still basically fresh from learning how to use his demons. He also manages to change the fate of the friends, and even those around him, rewriting many people's 0 on their death clock and allowing them to survive the lockdown as well. The cherry on top of all of this? He manages to fight and win against Metatron, the angel said to be as powerful as God himself, before he even becomes the fully realized King of Bel.
RANK REQUESTS: hear me out. It would be incredibly funny if as the King of Demons he was a high rank. But also, it'd be incredibly funny if he was a low rank.

SURVEY
βΆ I REGULARLY MAKE NEW FRIENDS.
β· 1. Kazuya is frequently shown making new friends, pretty much without even trying during canon. He simply encounters people and wham, suddenly friendship, likely due to his nature in wanting to help people if they're in trouble. He might not be the most outwardly sociable of protagonists, but he's also not going to push people away either, and he's shown to get along pretty readily with the new people he does meet, from Midori to Keisuke to Haru and so on. He's good at leaving a positive impression on people.
βΆ SEEING OTHER PEOPLE CRY MAKES ME WANT TO CRY TOO.
β· 5. It's not that Kazuya isn't empathetic to their plights, or that he's not upset by seeing other people upset, but he's someone for whom strong emotions take a lot to work out of him. He'll readily help people who are upset, and certainly try to cheer them up, but wanting to cry because someone else is crying just isn't him.
βΆ I OFTEN MAKE A BACKUP PLAN FOR A BACKUP PLAN.
β· 3. Fairly middling here. I wouldn't say that it's that he makes back up plans for back up plans, but he's someone who is fairly adept at reading the situation, and if his initial plan doesn't work out, then the one he comes up with in the moment usually does. He's certainly the type to think on his feet in terms of "What is the most pressing situation?" and then go from there.
βΆ I USUALLY STAY CALM, EVEN WHEN UNDER A LOT OF PRESSURE.
β· 1. The only time Kazuya seems to absolutely lose it, are when his friends are being attacked by demons, and even then, even as he's near disemboweled, he's able to keep his thoughts together enough to manage to win the fight.
βΆ I AM VERY SENTIMENTAL.
β· 3. Bot yes and no. It's not for physical items he's sentimental for, but people. Yuzu is his childhood friend, he'd do anything for her. Atsuro is someone who became a fast friend out of seemingly random person who showed up on his cousins doorstep. And of course, there is also Naoya, his cousin who is the reincarnation of the Biblical Cain, while Kazuya himself is the reincarnation of his brother, Abel. And while he could have gone the other way for that, hated Naoya for what he'd done to him, Kazuya doesn't. He still remains close to Naoya, supporting him and choosing to become the King of Bel in part for him. He wants to remove the curse that Naoya is under, among other things.
βΆ EVEN A SMALL MISTAKE CAN CAUSE ME TO DOUBT MY OVERALL ABILITIES AND KNOWLEDGE.
β· 4. Kazuya is a very, very confident person, generally speaking. He's incredibly intelligent too, able put together things that other people might have done so incorrectly or been unable to at all. Even if he is shown to be wrong, he simply reassesses the situation again with the new information to make a better choice than he might have otherwise.
βΆ I AM MORE INCLINED TO FOLLOW MY HEAD THAN MY HEART.
β· 2. Definitely the sort to think first and then act, Kazuya is hardly rash in most of his decisions. Again, this ties heavily into his theme of wanting to make sure he's doing the best he can, to be making the best choice he can possibly make with the information he has, before he acts. Not that he can't make a brash decision, but they're very few and far between, and a surge of strong emotion such as seeing people he cares for in danger is one of the few ways to get him to think more with his emotions than his head.
βΆ I AM PRONE TO WORRYING THAT THINGS WILL TAKE A TURN FOR THE WORSE.
β· 4. This is something Kazuya thinks about, but doesn't, or tries not to, dwell on for very long. Being in the lockdown was bad enough, but with Yuzu and Atsuro counting on him to be strong, to not show any trace of doubt or weakness, he couldn't afford to think those kinds of thoughts. The only thing important his friends and himself making it out of the lockdown alive, and hopefully whole. Worrying that things might turn even worse in a lockdown with a complete societal collapse and demons and angels and even humans running around killing people just wasn't an option.
βΆ I ENJOY WATCHING PEOPLE ARGUE.
β· 4. As long as it's done in a friendly manner, Kazuya doesn't mind watching people argue, such as when it's Atsuro and Yuzu getting into one of their arguments. In which case he just watches them do this incredibly fondly.
βΆ I TEND TO AVOID DRAWING ATTENTION TO MYSELF.
β· 2. For the most part, Kazuya tends to keep to himself and really only speak when spoken to, to the point where he lets his friends Yuzu and Atsuro do most of the talking for him. Not that there aren't situations where he'll go out of his way to draw attention to himself, usually for the sake of those friends, but it just definitely isn't his go to.
βΆ I OFTEN DO THINGS AT THE LAST POSSIBLE MOMENT.
β· 1. It's less out of laziness that he does it. Kazuya is the kind of person to want to have all of the possible knowledge he could have before he makes a decision. It's important to him that he makes the best decision he can, even if it means the decision has to be delayed.
βΆ I FIND IT EASY TO EMPATHIZE WITH A PERSON WHOSE EXPERIENCES ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM MINE.
β· 2 He has to explain to Midori why other people might not see people using demons, even to protect other people, might still make them afraid, and he's also able to understand Naoya's feelings, after having reincarnated over and over relentlessly with his memories intact. It's also that same empathy for others with experiences different from him why he's able to consider Kaido a friend, despite the other mans incredibly aggressive attitude and Might Makes Right way of thinking.
βΆ I BECOME BORED OR LOSE INTEREST WHEN THE DISCUSSION GETS HIGHLY THEORETICAL.
β· 3. Middling answer, as Kazuya only somewhat pays attention to when Atsuro goes on his long, highly detailed theories and rants about this or that or the other thing, but pays highly close attention if it's something that concerns or involves him, like when Naoya or Atsuro talk about demons and the logistics behind them.
βΆ I RARELY FEEL INSECURE.
β· 3. He has moments of insecurity and self doubt, on whether or not he's making the right choices or doing the right thing, but generally he tries not to think about those "what ifs" unless they're staring him directly in the face. If he can do something about the situation, he will. If he can't, well. It's best not to think about that kind of thing yet anyway.
βΆ I AM STILL BOTHERED BY MISTAKES I MADE A LONG TIME AGO.
β· 2. Not quite to the tune of mistakes, but choices that Kazuya has made that he could have done differently still hold a "what-if" over him. What if he had chosen to believe in Atsuro's way of dealing with the demons? What would have happened if he had chosen to say to hell with everything and escape the lockdown with Yuzu? Though he doesn't think he made the wrong choice, he still thinks about these things nonetheless.
RANK REQUESTS: hear me out. It would be incredibly funny if as the King of Demons he was a high rank. But also, it'd be incredibly funny if he was a low rank.

Character: Kazuya Minegishi (Abel)
Canon: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor, Post 8th Day
Background Information: Game wiki and Fandom Wiki which is pretty decent. The route Kazuya is from is The Kings Choice, without killing anyone.
Personality:
In most situations, Kazuya is someone who takes the world in stride, and is a fairly passive and quiet person all things considered. He's someone who would rather not take charge of social situations, as evident by the fact that the mostly lets his friends Yuzu and Atsuro do the talking for him, with only the occasional quip from him when he's singled out for a response. It's not that he's bad at social situations, or doesn't know how to navigate them, and in fact can be a perfect conversation partner when away from said friends. It just isn't his first preference for the most part.
While his calm and passive veneer is fairly standard in most situations, as is his pleasant and polite personality, Kazuya also can be quite sharp when it comes to noticing things about people or situations, which unfortunately means if left to his own devices in a conversation he can come off as rather blunt, stating things with ease that social etiquette would otherwise say not to do so. To the point that he calls out Haru's suicidal idealizations and tendencies mid-conversation with her. He's not being rude for the sake of being rude, he just wants to make it aware that he knows what the situation is, and that hiding it won't do anyone any good.
When it comes to the lock-down, and everything in it, all Kazuya wants is for himself and his friends to go back to their normal lives. He doesn't care about God, he doesn't care about demons, he doesn't care what his cousin Naoya is planning or even what the government is up to. He wants his normal regular life back, and that is his motivation through out the entire ordeal. In keeping Yuzu and Atsuro safe, Kazuya can focus his attention on them rather than on the war for the throne of Bel, in keeping Midori and Keisuke safe, he can focus his attention on them instead of how the world he knew is falling apart around him. It's not a healthy coping mechanism, but it's one he uses to great effect: Focus on protecting and helping other people survive in the hope that whatever happens next lets him survive too.
Which is probably why he delays in choosing whose viewpoint to follow until the very end. To escape the lock-down with Yuzu despite how badly that would end for everyone else, to help Atsuro tame the demons, to send the demons back with the power of Haru's song. To become a Messiah and a puppet of the Angels, or to follow his cousin and become the King of Bel and fight God for the freedom of humankind. He wants all of the information he can get, he wants to make the best choice possible when it comes to the safety of his friends and their needs.
Kazuya chooses to become the King of Bel. Not for Naoya's reasons, not entirely. He wants the situation that caused the lock-down to never happen again, and he's under the understanding that will only happen if he can kill God and free humanity from his Tyranny. It all comes back to survival, if God and the angels are dead, humankind will never have to fear another lock-down and the horrors it entailed. To him, it's becoming a protector of humanity, even if he has to give up his own to do so.
He's not unaware of that fact. He's not unaware that most humans either revere him or revile him, see him as either a benevolent dictator at best, or a new tyrant taking Gods place at the end of the day. A realization came when Yuzu left him and Atsuro the night before he became the Overlord of demon-kind. It's not something he blames her for though. After all, even he had no clue how much he'd change after absorbing Babel. It was a gamble, and he can recognize the fact that while it hurt, Yuzu in all likelihood didn't want to see her best friend turn into a monstrous tyrant like the other Bel's were.
After all, when Babel told him to relinquish his humanity, it was under the assumption that all of it would be lost, and yet Kazuya makes it a point to cling and hold onto what little he has left like lifeline in a stormy sea. He makes the choice to continue to help the people who hunt him down and try to kill him just because of what he is now, even when it's made clear to him that it would just be easier to kill them and make an example out of them. He doesn't want to, the last thing he wants is to hurt the people he gave up his humanity to protect, even if it's hard to remember why sometimes.
It's pretty easy to say that after everything he's been through that Kazuya is pretty traumatized; even if he does his best to not think about the horrors he's witnessed in the lock-down. Even if he tries not to think about the factors of Bel inside him that call for violence and bloodshed and reverence all the same. If he ignores it, it's not a problem. If he does his best to play up being a normal teenager, he can stuff it back down and properly compartmentalize his trauma all while making sure that people think he's harmless and not, you know, a terrifying being with power that rivals God.
Abilities & Inventory:
Elemental Resistance In Devil Survivor, the elements are Fire, Ice, Electricity, Wind, Curse, and Almighty. Kazuya will not take any damage from the fire element, and take a little less damage from all others minus Almighty (Holy), where he'd take full damage.
Dimension Hopping / Teleporting As the king of Bel, Kazuya is able to open portals to just about wherever he wants to go on earth or the demon realm. For Songerein, I'd like to keep this to places he's already been, and where other characters homes/personal areas are concerned, he'll need permission. You know. Like a vampire.
Regeneration / Physical Endurance / Mental Endurance Kazuya is able to regenerate from any sort of fatal wound, though it does take some time. He's also a lot more hardy and hard to injure than a normal human would be thanks to his new Bel physiology. He's also resistant, but not immune, to mental attacks as long as he knows they're coming.
Demon Summoning As the king of Bel and thus King of Demons, Kazuya has absolute sovereignty over demons that aren't bound by contracts, and can summon them to his side regardless of what barriers between the demon realm and the world have been placed. For Songerein, he'll only be able to have one demon at a time summoned this way, and will be unable to summon them if he's using the two that are coming with him in his COMP, Cerberus and Culebre.
Increased Strength/Speed Absorbing the powers of the other Bels in game has the effect of increasing his speed and range of movement, meaning it probably is fair to say that he's able to move faster than a normal person.
Magical Ability Even before becoming the King of Bel, the power of the modified COMP let him use magic. At the beginning of his entrance into the game, he'll only have access to the following magic skills: Agidyne, Ziodyne & Drain. The abilities of the other Bel's he'll have access to will only be Beldrs' Vampiric Mist and Belial's Lost Flame. Obviously nowhere near as strong as their in game counterparts.
Suitability & Plans: I'd like to play Kazuya in Songerein for a number of reasons: We barely get to see him as he interacts with other people when he isn't having to constantly fight against his and his friends death clock. I'd also like to explore the rift between him formerly having been human, and now having to deal with being the king of demons who had to discard his humanity for the sake of his friends, the power of Bel, and of course, the hatred of God that all Bel's share that now resides within him, and the fact that he never actually wanted to be the king of Bel, but was forced into it.
While I don't believe he'd need castmates to be played, the fact that Naoya is already here presents an interesting situation: All Kazuya wants is to be a normal person, and while he might be able to fool other people for a bit, there's the very real possibility that Naoya could ruin that and reveal who and what he is, which would also make for interesting CR development.
Also, like, most canon characters are weirdos in their own right. Maybe it won't be so bad for him to also be one!
