Throne is a Demon in the Megami Tensei franchise.

Profile

Origin

Thrones[a] are an order of angel in from Pseudo-Dionysius's work On the Celestial Hierarchy, taking the name from Colossians 1:16, which mentions that God is the creator of thrones (throni in the Vulgate and θρόνοι thrónoi in the Greek New Testament), dominions, principalities, and powers. Thrones are usually identified with the ophanim (wheels) of God's chariot in the Book of Ezekiel.

Isidore of Seville claims that they are called Thrones because "the Creator 'sits over' (...) them, and discharges his judgments through them."[1]

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance
Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine

天使階級第三位、上級第三位の座天使。 その名は『玉座』『車輪』等の意。

尊厳と正義を象徴する存在とされ、神の決定による天の配剤を責務に持つとされる。 『旧約聖書』の一書、『エゼキエル書』において、智天使である『ケルプ』と混同した記述がなされているが、 『ケルプ』は唯一神たる自らの主の玉座を運ぶものであるのに対し、「ソロネ」はその戦車を運ぶものであると考えられている。

炎と燃え、一輪、もしくは一対の車輪を持つ姿とされるが、 それに加えて胸元にトパーズを、場合によっては自身や車輪が緑に輝く姿で描画されることもある。

なお、物質による体を持った天使としては、最上級の存在である。
Translation: Seated angel of the third and senior third angelic rank. Its name means "throne," "wheel," etc. He is said to symbolize dignity and justice, and to be responsible for heavenly dispensations determined by God. In the Book of Ezekiel, one of the books of the Old Testament, it is confused with the wisdom angel "Cherub," which carries the throne of the Lord, the only God, while "Throne" is thought to carry his chariot. The "Throne" is thought to be the carrier of the chariot, while the "Cherub" is thought to be the carrier of the throne of the one God, the Lord. The "Throne" is depicted as having a flame and a flame, a wheel or a pair of wheels, and also a topaz on his chest, sometimes with himself and his wheels glowing green. In addition, he is the highest angel with a material body.

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner
(Akuma Zensho; PSP)

出身地:イスラエル

天使九階級の上位第3位にあたる「座天使」。オファニムあるいはガルガリンとも。

燃えさかる車輪の姿で描写される天使。その役目は、神の玉座を運ぶことである。同じような役目をケルプも持つが、ソロネが実際の戦車で、ケルプがこれを駆る者と考えればよいと思われる。

予言者エゼキエルによる描写が著名で、この時には牡牛、獅子、鷲、青年という4つの顔と4つの翼を持った姿で現れた。
Translation: Place of origin: Israel

"Thrones", third of the nine orders of angels. Also known as Ophanim or Galgalim.

Angels depicted in the form of burning wheels. Their role is to carry the throne of God. While Cherubs also hold a similar role, it seems best to think of Thrones as being the actual chariot, and the Cherubs as the ones who impel it.

The prophet Ezekiel's portrayal of them is well-known, appearing at the time with four faces―those of a bull, a lion, an eagle, and a youth―and with four wings.
