Simeon

Simeon is an angel whose first appearance in Obey Me!'s Main Story was in Lesson 2-13, and whose first appearance in Nightbringer's Main Story was Lesson 6-2. Both he and Luke were chosen to be the Celestial Realm's first exchange students at RAD. While he is considered a side character in both Obey Me! and Nightbringer, Simeon was added to Obey Me!'s Intimacy system in December of 2020 as part of the Happy Devil Day celebration. In the later released Nightbringer, he is part of the Intimacy system from the start.
== Appearance ==
Simeon has short, midnight brown hair with bangs that sweep towards the right, and sepia-brown skin. His eyes are a gradient of celadon blue and pastel yellow, with a ring of sky blue around his pupils.
As seen in the official height chart, Simeon is the second-shortest of the side characters, just barely shorter than Barbatos.
== Personality ==
Simeon has a calm demeanor, to the point that Satan states in one of his Home Screen dialogues, "Wouldn't you be curious to see what Simeon's like when he's angry?". He presents himself as a nice and always smiling person, no matter if he's talking with demons or humans. This was shown when he invited Mammon and Beelzebub on a camping trip in Lesson 4-17 (OM).
In Lesson 54-7 (NB) - after an incident relating to MC's safety - Mephistopheles commented that he didn't know it was possible for Simeon to project so much anger while maintaining a smile. Even Diavolo admitted that he was "too scared to move even a muscle" from being scrutinized under Simeon's angry gaze.
According to Solomon in Lesson 32-16 Hard (OM), Simeon also has quite a sarcastic side, and remarked that he was able to be openly sarcastic towards the son of Demon King himself.
Despite his generally kind nature, Simeon can be a very strict supervisor. According to Simeon himself in Lesson 5-20 (OM), he doesn't like to give Luke direct answers; instead, he prefers to give him opportunities to figure things out on his own. Simeon also tends to look for compromises, even if not agreed with, and he tries to act as an interlocutor. In Lesson 5-20 (OM), when he talked about his methods of teaching Luke, if MC chose to call him "mean," he just laughed and agreed with them. In the Pop Quiz Henry and the Seven Lords, as a director, Simeon was also very strict.
In the Devilgram Lured by a Majestic Deer, he claimed that the filming of an argument scene was difficult for him, as he's not good at getting angry, despite the fact that he's assigned Wrath glow sticks in battle. However, he has been seen angry before while directing stageplays. When he was annoyed with Mammon for not memorizing his lines, he gave Mammon a calm talking-to, which creeped Mammon out, because "He was smiling, but his eyes weren't smilin' at all."
Simeon is known to frequently struggle with technology, such as his D.D.D. or using computers.
