Leviathan

Leviathan is a demon whose first appearance in Obey Me!'s Main Story was in Lesson 1-7, and whose first appearance in Nightbringer's Main Story was Lesson 1-1. He has six brothers, and as the third-most powerful of the seven, he holds the title of "third-born." He also possesses the title "Avatar of Envy" and is a representative of that sin. As one of the main characters in both Obey Me! and Nightbringer, he is included in both games' Intimacy system.
== Appearance ==
Leviathan has short, indigo hair styled in a bowl cut, with longer bangs that sweep towards the left. His skin is pale, and his eyes are a gradient of tangerine orange and indigo. His nails are most often painted indigo, as shown in most of his card art (with some exceptions, such as Like Two Peas in a Pod) and most of his outfits. However, in his sprites for his RAD Uniform and his Everyday Clothes, his nails are cyan, as shown in RAD (Envy). This makes Leviathan and Asmodeus the only two of the seven brothers with varying nail colors.
As seen in the official height chart, Leviathan is the fourth-tallest of the seven brothers, only somewhat shorter than Satan.
== Personality ==
As the Avatar of Envy, Leviathan can't help but constantly compare himself to others, almost always unfavorably. He very often insults himself, the most common insult being "worthless otaku." The results of a D.D.D. app called "Demon Brain Scan" in Beelzebub's Devilgram Unspoken Affection are that 70% of Leviathan's brain is taken up by "jealousy and feelings of inferiority." His jealousy can at times lead to him lashing out in anger, and he frequently uses his ability to summon the sea monster Lotan as a threat.
Apart from MC, Leviathan is the only character who doesn't use his own photo as his D.D.D. icon. In the Devilgram Icons Are Important!, he explained that using a face pic is "the height of norminess" and thinks face reveals on social media are just people showing off their good looks. So instead, he chose for his icon pic the "Red Flame Dragon" from the D.D.D. game Devil Hunter.
Leviathan has trouble feeling like he "fits in", so he tends to call common social activities — and anyone who takes part in them — "normie." He acts like he hates anything that he gives this term, while not-so-secretly wishing he could participate, as seen in the Devilgram A Jealous Christmas. His social awkwardness means that he is very easily embarrassed when people are too close to him, or by any physical contact. He comments in one of his Home Screen interactions that he isn't used to people touching him "unless they're 2-dimensional."
Leviathan spends a lot of his time in his room, and often refers to himself as a "shut-in." He avoids going to RAD as much as he can by taking online classes. As mentioned in Lesson 29 (OM), his subject with the worst grades is seductive speechcraft, which coincidentally is a class that he can't take online. As much as Leviathan can envy the lives of others, deep down, he seems to be happy with the way things are in his life. When given the opportunity to be a pro gamer in the Devilgram A Pro Gamer Is Born! or to be a model in the Devilgram Devildom's Next Top Otaku, he turned both of these opportunities down. Both times, he explained it was because he enjoys just hanging out in his room all day, especially with MC.
Despite spending much of his time in his room, Leviathan does go out of the way at times to connect with other people. He explained in the Devilgram Resentment Runs Deep that he likes to buy physical copies of video games so that he can sell them at a used game store, and then share his opinions to the people working there.
Although being shown to have defined abs similar to the rest of his siblings, Leviathan's sedentary lifestyle has left him out of shape. He was shown in the Devilgram Love, Friendship, and Justice to be unable to jump rope and run a single lap around the House of Lamentation. He does take part in some form of exercise, however, as Leviathan is known to upload dance videos to DevilTube. He does so in order to support his favorite idols, as mentioned in the Devilgram Living the Dream. However, he still has anxiety about people seeing these videos. In the chat Going Viral, Leviathan immediately privated one of his videos after it appeared on a Sucre Frenzy TV special.
In the Devilgram I Can Do It Too!, Leviathan mentioned that as an angel, he never had an interest in the angel hierarchy or becoming a Seraph, and is pleased that now he doesn't have to worry about that since he's a demon now.

==== Anime and Manga ====
Leviathan is a dedicated and wholehearted otaku. In Lesson 71-1 (OM), it was mentioned that his laptop used for RAD student council work sports a giant picture of the character Seraphina. In the chat The Guest Room, it was revealed that before Raphael's arrival, Purgatory Hall's guest room was used by Leviathan as storage for all of his manga.
He often tailors his schedule to make sure he can watch any anime episodes when they air live. Even during a retreat at the Demon Lord's Castle in Lesson 7 (OM), he was still focused on a birthday festival that would begin at midnight for one of his favorite characters.
Ruri-chan is one of his favorite anime characters. The story in the Pop Quiz Ruri-chan Is My Bae focuses on his love of the character. In episode two of Obey Me!: The Anime, he cosplayed as Ruri-chan. Belphegor stated in the daily chat Test Subject that another anime character leviathan likes is Tomoka, who is his favorite character from DEVINNAD. This is likely a reference to the character Tomoyo Sakagami from CLANNAD.
==== Video Games ====
Leviathan is a skilled gamer, and owns a number of game systems, including one similar to the Nintendo Switch seen in the opening of Obey Me!, and another similar to a PlayStation 4 seen in Episode 2 of the anime. He has also created his own videos games, as seen in the Pop Quiz Wedding Vows and in the Devilgram Handmade Present!.
Leviathan plays all different genres of video games, but as mentioned by Lucifer in the Devilgram Hat Mischief, he frequently has nightmares after playing horror games. At one time, his dream was to become a pro gamer, as he told MC in the chats Future Dream 1 and 2. However, he chose not to start a pro gaming career after becoming the Devildom's first e-sports champion in the Devilgram A Pro Gamer Is Born!.

== Powers and Abilities ==
Leviathan is the third most powerful demon brother and the Avatar of Envy. He is also the "master of water itself" as mentioned in the twins' 2022 birthday event. During this event, Leviathan summoned the sea monster Lotan using the incantation: "In the name of Leviathan, Avatar of envy and master of water itself, I command you! Come forth, Lotan!" Leviathan frequently uses this ability, and it usually results in the surrounding areas being flooded. In both games, this has happened at least eleven other times, including: Lesson 28-5 (OM), Lesson 42 (OM), Lesson 48 (OM), Lesson 59 (OM), Lesson 12 (NB), Devilgrams The Avatar of Wrath and Accident-Turned-Sleepover, Birthday Events Happy Birthday! Dear Leviathan and Happy Birthday! Dear Simeon '22, and chats The Dream and Lotan's Return.
In the third issue of the RAD Newspaper, it is stated that Leviathan has control over magical creatures of the water. This is likely why he is able to summon Lotan so easily. However, as implied in the chat Cleaning the Fish Tank, this power does not give him the ability to speak with his goldfish Henry 2.0.
In Lesson 43-5 (OM), Mammon mentioned that once, when Leviathan had a fever, he "freaked out" and turned Henry into Lotan.
In the Devilgram Golden Drop, it is shown that Leviathan possesses the ability to conjure a trident, and can throw it at great speeds.
In the Devilgram My Cursed Friend, Leviathan explained that he knows how to dispel some curses, although Far Eastern curses are outside of his area of expertise.
== Etymology ==
* Leviathan's name comes from the sea serpent from the Bible.
** In the modern Hebrew language, his name (לִוְיָתָן) means "whale".
