Moloch is a Demon in the Megami Tensei franchise.

Profile

Origin

Molech,[a] also known as Moloch,[b] is apparently a Canaanite god mentioned in the Bible to whom children were sacrificed, though some scholarship believes that the name actually refers to the type of sacrifice rather than a deity.

Chemosh, which Moloch is called in Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner, is a Moabite deity mentioned in the Bible and attested in Moabite inscriptions. Chemosh's description in Devil Summoner: Akuma Zensho claims that he is sometimes identified with Moloch.

Shin Megami Tensei II

After Zayin detects a strange signal in Holytown, Aleph investigates the area and finds a massive tail sticking out of the ground. In Old Roppongi, he hears from the Mutant Elder that this tail most likely belongs to Moloch, who resides in the Expanse. According to residents of the Expanse, Moloch is absorbing Magnetite to burn it as fuel. Later, Lucifer reveals that he had Moloch gather Magnetite on the orders of YHVH, in order to funnel that energy into Kuzuryu.
