Profile

Origin

In the historical Vedic religion, Indra is a storm god who is king of the devas. He is also a god of order, and he slew Vritra with his weapon the Vajra (thunderbolt). As the Vedic religion developed into Hinduism, Indra's importance declined greatly.

According to the Puranas, Indra is not the god's name but a title. He is portrayed somewhat more negatively compared to in the Vedas.

In Buddhism, Indra is usually called Śakra, and he is king of the devas like in the Vedas.

Shin Megami Tensei (A-Mode DDS)	Origin: India - The Hindu god of rain and thunderstorms. He is known as a war god who wields a thunderbolt known as Vajra. He rides the white elephant Airavata and defeated Vritra, who was causing a drought. He was later embraced by Buddhism and became Sakra, the leader of the four Devas.
Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine	古代インドの聖典『リグ・ヴェーダ』に登場する雷霆神。暴風雨の神である『マルト神群』を従え、二頭立ての黄金の戦車、もしくは象に乗る。神酒ソーマを好み、金剛杵『ヴァジュラ』を持って、人々に害をなす者を退治して回ったとされる。この時に討伐した毒龍の名から、『ヴリトラハン』とも呼ばれた。古代インドの叙事詩『ラーマーヤナ』では、天空神として登場し、『ヴィシュヌ』の分神である英雄『ラーマ』へと、力を貸し与える。この力によって放たれた矢は『インドラの矢』と呼ばれ、敵対するラクシャーサの王『ラーヴァナ』の軍勢に打ち勝ったと謳われた。なお、仏教においては、『ゾウチョウテン』ら四天王を束ねる帝釈天ともされる。 Translation: The thunderbolt god from the ancient Indian scriptures, the Rig Vega. He rides a two-headed golden chariot or elephant, accompanied by "Maruts," the god of storms and rain. He is said to have loved the sacred wine Soma and went around exterminating those who harmed people with his vajra, a vajra hammer. He was also called "Vritrahan" after the poisonous dragon he slayed at that time. In the ancient Indian epic Ramayana, he appears as a sky god and lends his power to the hero Rama, an offshoot of Vishnu. The arrow shot by this power was called "Indra's arrow" and was said to have defeated the army of "Ravana," the king of Rakshasa, who was his adversary. In Buddhism, he is also known as Taishakuten, the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, including Zouchouten.
Persona 2: Innocent Sin	Hindu god of war and lightning. Called Sakra in Buddhism.
