Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance daily demon special – Dagda

Atlus have released a special Daily Demon video for Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance alongside their regular video for the day. This one is focusing on Dadga.

A demon of the deity race, Dagda played a major role in Shin Megami Tensei IV Apocalypse on the 3DS, acting as a major supporting character and, depending on the player’s choices at certain points in the game, a boss battle. The Megami Tensei wiki has the following info regarding its origins:

The Dagda, also known as Aed, Cera, Easal or simply Dagda, is the supreme god in Celtic mythology and the current High King of the Tuatha Dé Danann. His name means “the good god,” good as in good at everything, as opposed to morally good.

Dagda is said to be a god of the earth, knowledge, fertility, harvest, time and fate, as well as much more. Tales depict the Dagda as a figure of immense power. He is portrayed as being armed with a magical club. A wanderer mainly, he spends his time among the mortals of Ireland and Scotland, spreading joy and merriment as he passes from village to village.

During the battle against the Irish aboriginal, Fomorians, Dagda is injured and begins to live a reclusive life. His positions are succeeded by his brother Nuada and daughter Brigid.
