==Notable Demons== There are a '''lot''' of different monsters that have shown up across the course of the MegaTen universe, and the precise list tends to vary from game to game. Still, a few stand out above the rest as partner demons or Persona. '''[[Pixie]]:''' Often the first demon you'll recruit, at least in the SMT games, Pixie is generally depicted as a small, cute [[elf]] girl with dragonfly wings and a mischievous nature. Armed with basic Zio (electricity) attack spells and healing but with no real weaknesses, it's a surprisingly reliable beginner demon. In SMT3: Nocturne, Pixie will evolve into High Pixie at level 10 and then into Queen Mab at level 56, both of which build upon Pixie's basic strengths - but the most famous trick is that if you keep the Pixie who is your very first recruited demon (or whoever you fused/evolved her into) all the way until you reach the 5th Kalpa dungeon, you can transform her into a "Super Pixie", which is an 80th level Pixie with powerful Electric and Almighty attack spells and two of the best healing spells. '''Jack Frost:''' Based on the European winter spirit, Jack Frost is the unofficial mascot of the SMT multiverse (and half the time, of Atlus as a company), and is generally depicted as a goofy, friendly little spirit that resembles a humanoid snowman. '''Black Frost:''' Created basically because of a pun in Japanese, Black Frost is an evil counterpart to Jack Frost with ''way'' better stats, a black and red color scheme, and the ability to use both fire and ice attacks (whilst also being impervious to both). Typically requires a high level triple-demon fusion of Jack Frost, Pumpkin Jack and King Frost to create. '''Mara:''' Generally remembered as the demon most likely to get banned by the censors. See, Mara is an evil spirit in Buddhism who basically [[Slaanesh|embodies worldly desires and physical pleasures]]. So, apparently borrowing from Sri Lanka's depiction of him, or maybe just the fact that "mara" is Japanese slang for "penise", Atlus depicts Mara in their games as a giant green penis with tentacles who may or may not be riding a golden chariot. His faithful steed ''Girimekhala'', a cyclopean elephant or elephant man, shows up in a lot of games too, but is less memorable than his boss. '''Thanatos:''' Generally one of the most powerful monsters of the Death Arcana, Thanatos is also arguably the most popular monster of that Arcana, because of his badass introduction very early in Persona 3, where he literally ''rips'' his way out of the protagonist's default persona Orpheus and proceeds to massacre the Shadows opposing him. His cool look as a skull-wearing faceless angel of death with a mantle of coffin lids certainly helps to make him stick out. '''Alice:''' Yes, as in "Wonderland". Despite looking like a gothic [[loli]], she's an extremely powerful Death Arcana/Undead/Fiend demon, to the point she is the reward for maxing out the Death Arcana Social Link in Personas 4 and 5. Has a unique attack called "Die for Me", which is usually the best Dark/Curse type attack in the game. She has a long and storied history in the series, having debuted in the very first game as a unique boss fight; she was a human girl whose ghost was taken in as an adoptive daughter by the [[demon]]ic [[necromancer]]s Nebiros and Belial; because of this, Personas 4 and 5 make her a "hidden" fusion where you can only unlock her by fusing Nebiros and Belial together - in other games, she's either a multi-demon fusion or hidden behind a quest to obtain.
