'''Leaders''' are a gameplay mechanic in the {{Link|Series|DeSu-}}. They are characters who have joined forces with the protagonist and leads a team of summoned demons in combat.

==Overview==

In the ''Devil Survivor'' games, the player controls four teams consisting of one leader and up to two members. A team cannot be deployed in battle if it does not have a leader. The leader takes reduced damage as long as there is at least one other team member alive; however, if the leader is killed then the entire team is defeated. If all deployed teams are defeated ~~it will lead to a~~ game over.

The leader takes reduced damage as long as there is at least one other team member alive; however, if the leader is killed then the entire team is defeated. If all deployed teams are defeated then the game is over.

Once per turn, the leader can ~~return~~ a ~~member to~~ the ~~[[COMP]] or summon one from~~ stock.

Once per turn, the leader can summon a demon in the stock to an empty space in their team.

The ~~Protagonist~~ is always the leader of the first team, but the availability of other leaders is based on different circumstances—such as if a specific event has been seen or depending on which route the player is on.

Unlike member demons, leaders do not gain skills through level-up or auction ranks. Instead, a leader's skills are fully customizable and are ~~Set~~ from the list of ~~Cracked Skills~~. Some skills can only be used by a leader, such as the auto skills and [[Leader Soul]]. Other skills cannot be used by leaders and are instead restricted to member demons, that being the [[Knight Soul]] series of skills—where the member takes a lethal hit for the leader—and racial skills. For ~~Skill Cracking~~, the chosen skill is assigned to the team's leader, although any member of the team can defeat the foe to crack it.

Each leader has a set ~~Movement~~ value which determines how far they can travel on the map. This value can be changed by the active or passive racial skills of the team members.

{{sectionstub|reason=Missing stat calculations.}}

The leaders in ''Devil Survivor'' include: The [[Protagonist (Devil Survivor)|Protagonist]], [[Atsuro Kihara|Atsuro]], [[Yuzu Tanikawa|Yuzu]], [[Keisuke Takagi|Keisuke]], [[Midori Komaki|Midori]], [[Mari Mochizuki|Mari]], [[Misaki Izuna|Izuna]], [[Black Frost]], [[Amane Kuzuryu|Amane]], [[Gin]], [[Kaido]], and [[Naoya (Devil Survivor)|Naoya]].<br/>To see a leader's base stats, multipliers, and growth values—see the ''Gameplay'' section on their respective character page.

{{Research|section=1|reason=Need to test whether HP/MP calculations work the same as in DeSu1.}}

Unlike ''Devil Survivor'' and ''Devil Survivor: Overclocked'', where all leaders base level was 1, the leaders in ''Devil Survivor 2'' have varying base levels. The growth values are still an indication of the amount of stat points gained during a set of 16 levels, but this change means that each leader has their own set of level ranges, starting from the level after their base one.

====Fate====

''Devil Survivor 2'' introduces the ~~Fate~~ system for leaders.

''Devil Survivor 2'' introduces the fate system for leaders, which is a representation of how close the protagonist is to his companions. Each companion has 5 fate stages, and to raise their fate rank the player has to see certain mandatory or optional events with that companion.

Each stage provides gameplay benefits, and they are as follows:

{| class="wikitable"

!Rank

!Description

|-

|Stage 1||The companion will gain an attribute resistance

|-

|Stage 2||The protagonist and the companion share skill crack targets

|-

|Stage 3||A demon is unlocked for fusion

|-

|Stage 4||The protagonist can send his demons to the companion's team

|-

|Stage 5||A demon is unlocked for fusion

|-
