Protagonist (Shin Megami Tensei: Liberation Dx2)
Protagonist (Shin Megami Tensei: Liberation Dx2) is a character in the Megami Tensei franchise and the protagonist of the mobile game Shin Megami Tensei: Liberation Dx2.
Profile
Just an ordinary youth who downloaded a certain smartphone app featured on Megakin's channel, only to be drawn into the world of Dx2 and the Liberators' fight against the Acolytes.
The protagonist is a resident of Akihabara, Tokyo. They downloaded a mysterious "mobile game" after seeing it advertised online, with the hopes that it could bring some action to their dull, isolated existence. After opening the "game", they are confronted by Einherjar, who claims to have been waiting for someone like them to download the game. He refers to the protagonist as "the chosen one", and introduces them to the world of demons and devil downloading. Einherjar then recruits the protagonist into the Tokyo Branch of the "Liberators", and directs them to the nearest Liberator hideout. There, the protagonist is introduced to the other members of the Tokyo branch, and nicknamed "Newbie" by Taro Fuse. This nickname later becomes their official code name.
Gameplay
Newbie is unlocked upon launching Dx2 and is the only Dx2 available to the player until the completion of Chapter 1-1 of the main story. Newbie has a Level 1 Pixie and a Level 1 Cu Sith as their starting demons. Their Limit Break quest is unlocked after watching the Chapter 4 Epilogue.
Newbie does not have a set name nor gender. Instead, both of these charactertistics are decided upon by the player at the beginning of the game, and can be changed at any time. Newbie cannot be given a surname, and their forename is limited to eight characters. The two gender options for Newbie - male and female - are for cosmetic purposes only, and do not affect the story.
