* ''ShinMegamiTensei: DevilSurvivor'' The ''ShinMegamiTensei'' series, operating on AllMythsAreTrue, have several demon lords and arch devils from christian, jewish and islamic lore making multiple appearances. All of them are unique and each of them are said to command a significant portion of the demons. {{Lucifer}} himself is the strongest amongst them and seems to command the fealty of most of his fellows through sheer AsskickingEqualsAuthority. In several of the games he is either the BigBad, or one of the main characters' staunchest patrons.

For whatever reasons there are these guys: Usually with names taken from the Apocrypha or Dante's ''[[DivineComedy Inferno]]'', these guys can be described as Almost-Satan, for when the real deal isn't as fun to use. They're often given fancy titles and pretty much do whatever {{Satan}} would have done had he been present. Also, if you actually kill one or stop their schemes, it's still an accomplishment, but it's hardly a collapse of the demonic system. There will always be another to replace the one that falls. [[HeWhoFightsMonsters Perhaps even the killer.]]

Somewhere between {{Satan}} and the LegionsOfHell are these guys: Maybe the setting doesn't want to deal with a single representative of all evil, maybe they felt dividing the stuff up makes for more fun intra-demon politicking.
