Lilith

Lilith was the youngest and only sister of the seven brothers, who was first mentioned in Lesson 5-4 of Obey Me!'s Main Story. Like the brothers before their fall, she was an angel in the Celestial Realm, but she died long before MC's arrival to the Devildom in Obey Me!.

Appearance[edit]

Lilith's physical appearance has never been shown in either Obey Me! or Nightbringer, and said appearance is left intentionally vague. This is due to her familial relationship with MC, whose appearance is also minimally described so that players can better identify with them.

Lilith did make an appearance in the seventh issue of Obey Me! The Comic. However, because the comic is an alternate version of the Main Story (one where the MC is a literal sheep), this version of Lilith is only canon to the comic itself. This means that players of the game are still free to envision Lilith as they choose.

Personality[edit]

Mammon described Lilith in the In the Devilgram Hatred as being "cute as can be," which was a statement the other brothers seemed to agree with. In Lesson 12-18 (NB), Lucifer described Lilith as "different" and "unusual," due to the fact that she refused to listen to his orders and did "absolutely whatever she wanted." According to Lucifer, Lilith was deeply emotional, and had animated facial expressions.

In the Devilgram Hide and Seek, Belphegor remembered that she tended to get scared easily. However, in Lesson 10-1 (NB), Belphegor explained how Lilith wasn't afraid of anyone, no matter how powerful they are. When she met Michael for the first time, she compared him to a jellyfish to his face.

Lilith also hated to lose, and she once stayed angry at Mammon for a week after he beat her in a sit-up competition.^(source?) In the Devilgram Hide and Seek, it was mentioned that once she became angry, it was hard to snap her out of it.

According to Belphegor in Lesson 12-16 (NB), Lilith believed demons and angels underestimated humans. She found it insulting how they worked to influence and protect humans as if they were weak or inferior beings. In Lesson 12-18 (NB), Lucifer said that Lilith loved humans just as much as she loved her brothers, and she would often disappear to the Human World for fun.

Story[edit]

Background[edit]

Beelzebub told MC in Lesson 5-4 (OM) that he, Belphegor, and Lilith "were always together" when they were all still angels in the Celestial Realm. And because when still an angel, Belphegor loved humans and would often sneak down to the Human World, Lilith began doing the same. Lucifer told MC this in Lesson 15-2 (OM), which is also when he told the story of Lilith meeting and falling in love with a human man.

However, the human Lilith loved "was stricken with an incurable illness," and as Lucifer stated in Lesson 15-4 (OM), Lilith gave the man forbidden food from the Celestial Realm so that she could save his life. This was a forbidden act, so their father sentenced Lilith to be "wiped from existence." Naturally, Lucifer and his brothers would not stand by and let this happen, so the Great Celestial War broke out.

In Lesson 6-1 (OM), Beelzebub told MC that during the Great Celestial War, he saw angels "draw their bows and aim for both [Lilith] and Belphie." Unable to save them both, Beelzebub chose to save Belphegor, and so Lilith's wing was pierced by an arrow.

Lilith fell into the Devildom, where Lucifer followed. The two were then found by Diavolo and Barbatos, as first shown in Lesson 14-10 (OM). Lilith's injuries were severe, and being close to death, Lucifer begged Diavolo to save her. Diavolo did save Lilith, and as Lucifer explained in Lesson 15-7 (OM), he did so by ensuring she was reborn as a human, though she lost all memory of her former life as an angel.

Lucifer kept Lilith's survival a secret from his brothers, because they were all "prohibited from coming in contact with the human Lilith." This was because she'd been sentenced to death, so the Celestial Realm could not find out she had actually survived. It is implied Lilith was able to then live our her life afterwards as a human with the man she'd saved by giving him the forbidden food. Lucifer commented that although Lilith eventually died, "if she ended up with the man she loved in the end, then I know she was happy. I truly believe that."

In Lesson 16-10 (OM), Lilith told MC that after her mortal life ended, she remembered her time as an angel alongside her brothers. She had been watching over them "ever since becoming a soul," and had "forgotten how to get to the Celestial Realm." Lilith also no longer had the strength to maintain a physical form, but gave what powers she had to MC so they could save and protect her brothers in her place. Lilith was able to do this because MC was her distant descendant, as revealed by Diavolo in Lesson 16-15 (OM).

Relationships[edit]

Main Character[edit]

While MC is a descendant of Lilith, neither they nor Lilith are genetically related to any of the seven brothers, by blood or otherwise. This is because — as angels that were created, not born — none of the brothers are related by blood to begin with. The brothers choose to see their relationships to each other as just that: brothers. This is also why Satan is considered one of the seven "brothers" despite the history of his creation.
