2. #2Craving and Nature

   Keys: Personality, nature, character, appearance, clothe

   Appearance Satanael is a tall, slender man with pale skin, long, flowing silver-white hair that cascades well past his waist and piercing silver eyes. He always seen with a stoic expression and rarely ever smiles, though he will smirk on occasion.

   He wears a white ensemble that consists of a long tailored coat with structured seams and geometric patterns, a cape worn over his shoulders and fitted trousers. He also wears a bright red dress shirt underneath and a black cravat around his collar. He also has a pair of brown formal shoes.

   Personality Satanael is a calm, calculating intellectual who possesses a natural charisma and a talent for manipulation. Arrogant and deeply perfectionistic, he is obsessed with cleanliness, purity, and order, valuing fairness, logic, and honesty above all else. In his role as God, he was outwardly benevolent, striving to create a world free from pain and suffering. However, his ideals ultimately produced a reality devoid of emotion, as he prioritized perfection and harmony over the complexity of human feeling.

   Driven by an uncompromising pursuit of absolute perfection, Satanael cannot tolerate flaws of any kind. This conviction compels him to seek the purification of the world by eradicating sin entirely. Highly logical and pragmatic, he views evil not as an inherent force but as a byproduct of human ignorance, believing that the elimination of ignorance would naturally lead to the disappearance of evil itself.

   It was this obsession with purity and perfection that caused him to reject the God who allowed sin to exist in the world. To Satanael, such a divine law was misguided and fundamentally flawed. Convinced of the correctness of his own reasoning, he came to regard that system as foolish, firmly believing that his own vision of absolute order and purity was the only true path forward.

3. #3PARADISE LOST

   Keys: PARADISE LOST, story, backstory, worldbuilding, setting

   Overview The first installment of the Shinza Banshou series. The era is the Second Throne, "Falling Heaven Shameless Blessed Land: Paradise Lost" (堕天無慙楽土パラダイスロスト). A near-future occult battle ADV depicting the desperate struggles of the protagonists in Sodom, a city devastated by a great war.

   Production Notes This is the debut work of scenario writer Masada Takashi. Abbreviated as "Pararos". The civilization level in the work's world is about half a century ahead of the real world, featuring genetic engineering and cyborgs. The world concept is cyberpunk, with many motifs derived from Christianity and Gnosticism (the existence of angels and fallen angels, the idea that the god who created the world is imperfect). It is a dark fantasy story with erotic and grotesque depictions, and basically, the characters are villains with no pure "good" people.

   First released on January 16, 2004. Later, to coincide with Kajiri Kamui Kagura, a new edition was re-released on January 28, 2011, in both package and download versions. The content remains unchanged, but the first edition included a trial version of Kajiri Kamui Kagura. Note that, unlike other works in the Shinza series, this game is only sold for ages 18 and older. The download version is available on FANZA (formerly DMM). The compatible OS is Windows 8.1, but it generally works without issues on Windows 10.

   Relationship with Other Works The preceding work by the same scenario writer, Dies irae, is set in the far future of this work and shares the worldview. However, Pararos is the earliest work drawn in the series, so its connections to other works are not very deep. The priority for playing it is low, but at the same time, it can be enjoyed even without having seen other works. In 2019, the production of Kuroshiro no Avesta, which tells the story of the era before PARADISE LOST, was announced. In Avesta, you can learn how the world of Pararos came to be, and if you have played Pararos, you will see various elements that connect.

   Story A city abandoned by God. A cursed abyss. Once a prosperous metropolis, it became isolated from the world with the destruction of the old civilization—a lost paradise, Paradise Lost—the "Quarantine City". There, the miasma said to be the remnants of the great war fills the air. Cyborgs with mechanized bodies and genetic engineering freaks—madmen and monsters roam the polluted land.

   There is no law, no path. No mercy or love exists—only the world and principle of the law of the jungle. In a sense, a miniature garden of Asura—this is the demonic city closest to hell in the world.

   In the city of violent evil, the Quarantine City, the protagonist—Lyle—is feared even there by the alias "Deathscythe". Until then, he had never once questioned his own existence or the way of the city. However, through his contact with the mysterious girl—Lil—he met in the lowest layer of the city, M Block, he gradually begins to change.

   A conflict with a demon lurking in his mind, fighting for the ownership of his body for a long time— The sudden manifestation of the Flame of Megiddo that rots everything— And, a sense of nostalgia and killing intent towards the existence called "angels"—

   All is guided by Sin.

   Leaving the city... Aiming for Zoar, Lyle, together with Lil, crosses blades with the forces of the "Outer World" that plunge the Quarantine City into confusion under the name of "Prophecy".

   Lost memories. An existence he doesn't want to lose. The inheritor of the Original Sin committed by Adam, in order to reach Adam Kadmon, aims for the eternal Zoar.

   Will the gate of heaven or the cauldron of hell open in the sky of the demonic city? In the lost paradise, the black rain of atonement continues to fall even today.

   ---

   Paradise Lost Satanael was born within Muzan's universe, and like all beings within his realm, was stained with Original Sin. His sin was uniquely powerful however, allowing him to directly open the Gate of the Abyss. Bearing the greatest Sin, that of Lucifer, Satanael engineered Armageddon in the city of Sodom three thousand years prior to the events of Paradise Lost. Following his creation of the Angels, he set them upon Sodom while simultaneously coaxing two demons, Belial (possessing Lot at the time), and Beelzebub into slaughtering them together with another of his creations, Astaroth.

   Interference from Lot led to the massive release of Sin that ultimately isolated Sodom from the rest of the world. He then entered a dormant state for the majority of the following three thousand years, waking roughly twenty years prior to his ascension to divinity. He constructed a city surrounding his seat of power, Pandemonium, and called it Zoar. In it, the average person has no free will of their own; a computer chip is implanted in every person's head that suppresses their emotions, desires, and agency. Skilled humans such as Lilith or Vera Cross, however, have their free will restored.

   Ultimately Satanael sought to create a being without Sin, which he attempted when he created the Angels, but he deemed his creations a failure as they were little more than puppets, displaying no agency of their own. However, Satanael on a limb assigned Lilliel to Lot prior to the fall of Sodom so that Lot could learn to wield Sin without being devoured by Belial. This bore fruit, as Lilliel eventually developed feelings of her own, falling in love with Lot shortly before the fall of Sodom. When she awakens at the beginning of Paradise Lost, Satanael realizes this and dispatches Lilith and Judas Strife to Sodom to confirm it.

   Satanael later assigns Know Christ, smuggled out of Sodom by Judas, to Astaroth, giving him the role of "Messiah" - as his plan crucially requires that Astaroth strike him down of her own will, and Know's purpose is to provide Astaroth, who can read and control minds, a heart. It is Satanael who dispatches Astaroth, Know, and Judas (now the host of Beelzebub) to Sodom to simultaneously recover Lilliel and dispose of Lot, now living under the name Lyle. This expedition is partially successful - Astaroth recovers Lilliel, but Know and Judas are unable to slay Lyle, who is also engaged by Astaroth. Their bout is interrupted by Lilliel, who in a reversion to her puppet-like state, invokes Netsiv Melakh, which completely cleanses Sodom of its Sin, while simultaneously destroying its outer regions.

   Satanael later engages Lyle after the latter sublimates Belial completely, initially seeking to dissuade Lyle in his attempt to rescue Lilliel, but later resolving to kill him after it becomes obvious how dangerous Lyle is. He invokes his own Sin, but is dealt a mortal blow as he finishes the calculations required to manifest it. In his death throes, however, Astaroth, having realized her role in Satanael's plans, decides to, completely contrary to Satanael's expectations, remain loyal to him of her own volition. In so doing, she acts according to his wishes and invokes her namesake, annihilating Satanael and herself from all points in time. This cleansed Satanael, and the rest of the world, of his Sin and allowed him to take the Throne from his predecessor, allowing everyone to reach the true Zoar.

   This, however, ultimately created a paradox that led to Mercurius later obtaining the throne from him.

   Trivia: Satanael is named after Satan/Lucifer, the "Light Bringer"/"Morning Star" (the latter of which is what Myoujou translates into). As shown in the visual novel, he even draws from the sin of Pride, which is associated with Lucifer. Satanael translates to "Adversary of God", which is fitting considering Nerose's desire to overthrown Muzan.

6. #6Dies Irae PANTHEON

   Keys: PANTHEON, story, backstory

   EXTRA STORY Side stories. Most are set in the past Holy Nation of Sodom. They depict events not told in the main story, but all character CVs are absent, and the text volume is not very large. Originally short stories written for magazines, they were included in the new edition. Later, in Dies irae PANTHEON, a story likely based on these side stories was scheduled to be included as the Second Throne Arc.

   Tech Gian Inclusion: The Another

   AN OLD SNAKE: Before the Great Year, Nerose Satanaeil recalls his own past. APOSTLE OF SIN: Lot, who led the Forbidden Fruit, loses everything in the Great Year and becomes the vessel of the Demon King. OVERTHROW OF KAETHER: Lot, now the vessel of the Demon King, forms a friendship with Satanaeil and swears to overthrow the Dictator of the Crown. Original Short Stories

   JUDGEMENT DAY: During the Great Year, Nerose Satanaeil summons the Demon King from the abyss. THE LAIR: A story leading to the prologue depicting Lyle's daily life in the Quarantine City. Other Side Stories 神なる座に列し伝わる救世主サオシュヤント・デサーティール (The Savior Saoshyant Desatir, Said to be Enthroned Among the Gods): A prequel to Dies irae PANTHEON included in Dies irae Amantes amentes (Switch version). It is a story set far in the future from PARADISE LOST, where Satanaeil, the final boss of Pararos, appears. It explains what the Pararos world was like from the perspective of others in later generations and about the world after that. 黒白のアヴェスター 設定集（仮） (Kuroshiro no Avesta Setting Collection (Tentative)): Two episodes, 'Great Sinner' and 'Adam Kadmon', which are afterstories of Kuroshiro no Avesta, are scheduled to be included. Characters from PARADISE LOST (Lot, Satanaiel, Mortaria, etc.) will appear. Release date is undetermined.

   PARADISE LOST in Dies irae PANTHEON Pararos is set in the Second Throne, but what is actually depicted is only the final phase of the Falling Heaven Shameless Blessed Land (from the late period of the Second Throne to the early period of the Third Throne). The fierce battle that occurred thousands of years before that—the most important episode with the most significant meaning in the Second Throne—remains unpublished. And this story was scheduled to be published in PANTHEON, and the writing itself was already completed. In the Seven Secret Scriptures of the Throne, settings for important characters of the Second Throne who did not appear in the Pararos main story were added, so there are still many mysteries about the Second Throne.

7. #7Powers and Abilities

   Keys: powers, abilities, law, trivia, nature, skills, superpowers

   Powers & Abilities Superhuman Intellect Satanael's true power does not lie in fighting combat, but rather the superhuman intelligence that allows him to create a device that could challenge a god. Said to be the smartest person of all eras, as a human, Satanael has created a device that can draw out power from a higher dimension. He would continue to create demons and angels that will eventually lead him to godhood.

   Quintessence Fifth elements of the Second Heaven. By using Testament, Satanael make his life span equal to that of Gaia itself. He also be able to utilize his creations' power while he is in his room at the submit of Pandemonium.

   Equations As a creator of Testament and all angels as well as demons, Satanael can access to all Equation, especially in Pandemonium where all elements in Gaia flow. There, he can even summon Belial and Beelzebub.

   Equation used by Satanael in the story:

   Astaroth Allow Ast to see past and future of her target and turning both into primary particles that trancend space-time. Going back to the past and destroy its very root of existence. Ast used this equation on Satanael to send him back in time and overthown Magsarion.

   Netsiv Melakh Showed as a part of Throne record. Summons a Great White Light that reduces all that touches it to a Pillar of Salt. This does not work just on the people or beings it touches, but all matter is converted without exception, consuming all things in its radiant light.

   Gogmagog The Ability of Beelzebub, the Demon of Gluttony. Satanael engulfs his opponent with a noxious cloud of miasma formed from every harmful substance known to man before and compressing it on around them. He then summons a horde of locusts that are able to tear apart the very souls of their victims, thus completely eradicating them. It's Beelzebub's most powerful attack, boasting enough power to send all continents to the Abyss at it’s full power. As part of shadow of Hisouten, it manifests as a horde of locust that consume its enemy's desire from inisde, purify them until no humanity are left.

   Megiddo of Belial Also known as the Meggido of Belial, this is the Ability of Belial, Demon of Worthlessness, who is among the strongest of the Demons that inhabit the Abyss. He releases flames that can ruduce the opponent to nothingness, destroying their very Souls. This is a direct manifestation of Muzan's Law, thus should also work at a transcendent, metaphysical level. Making this his most powerful ability, and one of the most powerful abilities in the Second Heaven.

   Morningstar of The Dawn Satanael's true sin. Sin of pride, Lucifer. It is said to be the strongest sin ever, suprassing even Meggido from Juedecca. Testament drilled to the Abyss surpassing Cocytus of Judecca. However, to utilize this equation, it requires an astronomical calculation. No matter how smart Satanael is, he would have to take time before he can fully activate it. Its capability is unknown as Lyle intercept at the last moment.

   Law Zoar, the Hegemony law of The Morningstar. Called a white world or salt prison, it is an Emanation that does not allow any form of impurity. Ignorance is the root of all sin, according to The Morningstar. Hence individuality is erased under his reign. No conflict, no death, no dream, no desire and no sin. Due to the agressive nature of his law that changes even a definition of a man, The Morningstar slowly update this world, which would be on the reason to his downfall.

   Sorrowful Heaven of the Morning Star/Zoar, (明星悲想天ツォアル, Myoujou HisoutenSoaru) also called the Third Heaven. A world under the rule of The Morningstar. A world of rationality, born out of a desire to cleanse the world of sin after the chaos and depravity of the Second Heaven.

   As a consequence of Satanael's desire, all creation was without sin, but due to this, no individual would have their own free will. This was because he saw free will as a sin due to it being a cause of contradictions, which creates suffering. Ambitions were also erased from the souls of the world, as they would disturb the needs of the many. Ultimately, this turned the world into a sort of computer where everything is neat and ordered and people essentially lived as mindless puppets that cannot have any sort of imperfection.

   Thanks to Satanel's purity, he has one of the most stable worlds. As he possessed no Apoptosis due to having no self destructive urges, and having erased ambition from mankind it was nearly impossible to have someone replace him.

   However, the eradication of individuality did not occur immediately. Satanael realized as such, as sudden changes in nature could be devasting. Instead, Zoar was put in a state of constant "updates", repeatedly painting the universe in pure white. The result of messing with time and causality from its emanation to its mechanics would eventually cause a bug in the system he so carefully programmed.

   Terminology Shamash The standard intelligent lifeform of the Third Heaven. All of them share the same personality, appearence and even consciousness, in turn, lacking concept of "others", conflict and death itself. They are the very result of Morningstar's elimination of ignorance. Shamash also said to only obey their God's command.

   The Winged Species One of the faction that obeys The Morningstar, said to be his agent.

   Gomorrah Also known as Apostates. They are distortions in the world of Zoar, heretics with a sense of indiviuality that will lead to the destruction of this eternal paradise. Their existence is a testimony of the disturbance cause by Satanael in order to reach the Throne.

   Sister of Lament, who is the first Apostate, is the leader of the Gomorrah.

   Trivia Much like its predecessor, this heaven derives itself from the Old Testament. The name Zoar (Zoara) comes from a city in the Bible that was originally slated to be destroyed by God, only to be spared the "brimstone and fire" which destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah in order to provide a refuge for Lot and his daughters. Excavations in the 1980's and 90's led to the recognition of Zoara as a city that had actually existed. Also supported by historical Arabian Geographers who spoke of it.
