Divine

The Divines are the various ranks of angels in Judeo-Christian lore. Their ranking is mostly based on the. Unlike the Heralds, they are for the most part nameless. In gameplay, they can be good with either physical attacks or magic. However, they all carry at least one Light elemental spell, a resistance to Light and usually a weakness to Darkness. They belong to the Aerials species, and are considered Light-Law in Shin Megami Tensei and Majin Tensei II but Neutral-Law in all other games.

Giten Megami Tensei: Tokyo Mokushiroku
"The angels who watch over humanity.  They act as heavenly messengers.  They guide people on the righteous path of peace and harmony.  Though polite, they are somewhat stubborn and inflexible.  They value spiritual love, devotion, friendship, and trust, and are also big on beautiful melodies and harmonies."

Megami Ibunroku Persona

 * Races (called Orders) are for enemies only, for demons used by the player, see Arcana.

Devil Survivor
The Divine race has the Blood Wine Racial Skill, which restores some MP to the entire team at the cost of the Divine's HP. The amount of MP restored is dependent on the Divine's level.

Devil Survivor 2
The Divine race has the Blood Wine Racial Skill, which restores some MP to the entire team at the cost of the Divine's HP. The amount of MP restored is dependent on the Divine&apos;s level. Stronger Divines in Devil Survivor 2 have this skill changed to Angel Stigma, which restores more MP for the same cost. * Available only in Record Breaker.

Trivia

 * Similar to the Herald race, even though there is a literal English translation of the Japanese race name, it is changed to the current name "Divine" in order to avoid confusing with the lowest rank demon Angel. In the Japanese version, this is not an issue because the race name is written in literal kanji, while the demon's name is the romanization of the English name.
