Ancient of Days (Shin Megami Tensei)

==Summary==
The Ancient of Days is one of the many avatars and forms of YHVH, and an embodiment of his countless different names, in particular representing His eternal existence. In the DLC quest Ancient One of the Sun, it is sent by God to the timeline of Blasted Tokyo in order to wipe out the last remants of humanity so that it can be replaced with a new species, initiating a repeat of Genesis in the process, which it refers to as the "dispensation of the universe." It is ultimately slayed by Flynn in combat.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Buffs and Debuffs: A set of skills that, as the name implies, allows the caster to greatly amplify their own physical attributes and reduce that of their foes, thus allowing one to stand up to much stronger opponents by closing or even reversing the gap in power between them. Outside of gameplay limitations, they can be stacked indefinitely, and sufficient usages of buffs allow the caster to survive attacks that would otherwise obliterate them with only minor injuries and amplify their speed to the point of completely outspeeding opponents that could previously predict all of their movements, while debuffs have a directly proportional effect on the enemy's statistics.
* Spiritual Focus: Greatly amplifies the offensive power of the following magical attack, marked as a multiple of 3, gameplay-wise.
* Silent Prayer: Removes all statistic modifications, both positive and negative, from itself and all foes and allies.
Almighty Attacks: The highest class of spells in the Megami Tensei franchise, consisting largely of powerful non-elemental attacks that have the special property of completely bypassing any resistances or immunities that a target may possess, be them innate or magically enforced, the latter of which including anything from reflective barriers to items that distort the very laws of the universe in order to protect the user from all forms of damage, and they are likewise unable to blocked, drained or generally defended against.
* Damnation: Deals heavy almighty damage to all foes while simultaneously having a 70% chance of inflicting poison.
* Sigmatic Gleam: Deals heavy almighty damage to all foes while simultaneously having a 20% chance of inflicting brand, effectively nullifying all regenerative abilities.
