Mephisto in Shin Megami Tensei V.
Profile¶
One starry night, a German scholar named Faust decided that he would give anything to be able to fully understand and enjoy the world. Turning his back on his Christian upbringing, he called upon the devil to enlighten him, in exchange for which he would give his soul. Instead of Satan, an elegant demon named Mephistopheles appeared—and he was surprisingly reluctant to accept the deal.
When Mephisto first appears to Faust, he makes his position clear. First, he informs Faust that he does not wander the earth seeking out souls to corrupt. Instead, he claims that he was “just passing by” and sensed that Faust, who had been attempting to magically summon demons, was already on the brink of corruption. Next, Mephisto warns Faust to change his ways, describing the horrors of his own “private hell” to try to convince Faust bargaining with the devil is a bad decision. Unfortunately, Mephisto’s warnings fail. Faust insists that Mephisto should be his slave for twenty-four years, after which he will give his soul to the devil. Eventually, Mephisto accepts.
As Faust’s slave, Mephisto goes above and beyond to make Faust’s sacrifice worthwhile. He brings him wealth, beautiful women, and all sorts of “earthly pleasures.” Most importantly, he takes Faust on grand adventures, even time-travelling and flying to the stars with him, so that he can understand all of creation. Eventually, Faust proclaims, “Had I as many souls as there are stars, I’d give them all for Mephistopheles,” proving that the demon is a pure, never-ending delight.
