Command Skill
Command Skills are a recurring mechanic in the Megami Tensei franchise and is a term used in some games to separate in-combat skills from other types. In games with Command skills, characters and demons have separate skill slots for Command skills, Passive skills, and any other game-specific skill types such as Racial or Session Skills.

Command skills usually cost HP or MP to use and characters can have up to three Command skills set at a time. All Command skills can be used in skirmishes but Healing skills can also be used on the Map outside of battle.
Allied Leaders can freely set their Command skills from the list of available Cracked skills—provided they meet the stat requirements—while Demons can learn new Command Skills through Fusion, the Skill Set Bonus, or Add-Ons.
