===Background ===
YHVH, also known as Yahweh, is the Creator Deity in the Abrahamic religions and is portrayed in the Megami Tensei series as the embodiment of Law, opposing Lucifer, the embodiment of Chaos. He created Heaven, Earth, the current iteration of humanity, and angels, who in turn gave rise to demons. Despite claiming to be the "One True God," YHVH is a tyranical dictator who enforces his will across the multiverse, subjugating all universes under his control and dethroning other gods. Essentially can be said to be the main antagonist of the series, despite not being formally such, constantly demanding worship and punishes defiance, but despite his ego he is ultimately only an aspect of The Great Reason, the true godhead.

*Abstract existence (Type 1), Ontologically Transcendent Physiology, Immaterial Physiology, Higher Dimensional Existence, Dimensional Travel (Natural residents of the expanse, a higher dimensional plane of existence inacessible to those bound by space and time, transcending the dimensions of past, present and future and operating on a conceptual form of time rather than physical and where upon entering all things that were material shed their physical form, and breaking free from space and time allowing them to travel freely, and are entirely made of human thought existing as pure phenomena like concepts of infinity)
*Acausality (Type 4 Demons of this level are entirely unaffected by the total collapse of time and presumably space, battling even beyond the flow of time, beings of this level exist "outside" and observing the story from god's viewpoint, viewing it as a tv show and completely unaffected by the timeline rewrite, being outside the purview of fate and operating on a different causality from the physical universe)

*Information Manipulation (Type 2) and Petrification (Demons can live through Brahman's rays which is a corruption of data that causes petrification and calamities all over earth)
