Summary
Jack Frost (ジャックフロスト, Jakku Furosuto)? sometimes known as Jack, is a demon in the series. He is the official mascot of Atlus Co., Ltd.. Because of this, he not only appears in practically every Megami Tensei game, but also has recurring cameos in numerous Atlus games. He can break the 4th-Wall, and is well aware of his popularity and fame outside the game, even making references to this in Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey. His evolved form is that of King Frost, who unlike his traditional self, is ruthless and his power unyielding. He is not friendly and likes to exercise his status as a king, even going so far as to consider his summoners as his subjects as well.

More detailed information on this character's skill list can be found in the Megami Tensei wiki
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.
- Rakukaja: Increases his defensive power and that of his allies by one rank.
- Sukukaja: Increases his speed by one rank.
- Makakaja: Increases the magical power of all allies by one rank.
- Marakunda: Decreases the defensive power of all foes by one rank.
- Sukunda: Decreases the speed of a foe by one rank.
- Dekunda: Nullifies all statistics reductions inflicted upon himself and his 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.
- Megidolaon: Unleashes a wave of destructive energy which deals heavy damage to all foes, tapping into the pale light of divinity that reigns over destruction itself and engulfing them in "the complete annihilation beyond death."
