Zion

Seraph Zion (シオン, Shion) is a member of the Three Seraphim in Monster Girl Quest! Paradox RPG. She’s said to be the most proficient at single combat of the second generation Seraphim.

Zion is one of the second generation Seraphim who was created to fill the gap left by Micaela being promoted to leader of the Seven Archangels and Lucifina who had fallen.

Biography
Zion appears briefly in Part 1, while Luka is on the way to Sentora. She and Gnosis was mentioned by Promestein that they are the new seraphim supposedly filling in for Micaela and Lucifina, but Ilias does not know them at all nor heard of them

She first appears when Morrigan is attacking Luka and his party on the boat as a replacement for Alma Elma. When Morrigan fails to take down the party after giving herself a handicap, the succubus lose patience and prepares to kill the party with her incredible power, however, Zion's banner unfurls and the seraph engages Morrigan into a fight.

However, her assaults proceed to destroy the ship even as Morrigan tells her that killing the party would disastrously speed up chaosization, something that Zion clearly doesn't concern herself with. Even as the ship sinks, the two fighters from other worlds engage each other without a second thought for the fate of the hero.

She is fought in Part 2 during the Ilias route. As she considers the party’s investigation in Tartarus could be a threat to the Angel World’s plan, she goes fight the group once the latter had the confirmation that there was no way to enter the place, with the intent to kill everyone save for Ilias who would be severely beaten down. After her life bar had been depleted, Luka voices that he had been invited to see Heaven by Raphaela, placating the Seraph who says that he’ll have to make “an important choice soon” before leaving.

She’s seen once again in Ilias Temple Ruins at the end of Part 2, with her fellow Seraphim. They engage the Lilith Sisters after the latter assassinate Ilias. They keep fighting until Sonya calls Adramelech, forcing them to work with the succubi to take down the arriving Apoptosis while Luka’s group hold back a transformed Sonya.

In Alice’s route, the Seraphim bail out once the situation appears hopeless, leaving Luka’s party and the Lilith Sisters behind as the world starts falling apart.

In Ilias’ route, they’re the ones to stay with the party. The Seraphim talk about their plans to save the ones chosen by Ilias, with Zion saying that they cannot welcome everyone. They repeat that Luka will have an important choice to make soon, and says their farewell to the group, with the hope that Luka will make the “good choice”.

She reappears with her sisters during chapter 12 of "The Land of Night and the Heroes of the Seven Worlds". On the Alice Route Route, they notice Myusca, Vinum and Nemea returning to a village to attack it. They engage in a fight until the three succubi leave.

On the Ilias Route, it happens when the party gets attacked by Mysteltainn, Ogretooth and Executioner in the Château des Romances. They engage the latter three in a fight until the three succubi leave, allowing the party to continue uninterrupted.

Strategy
Faced on Ilias Route, she can prove quite as she possesses varied attacks, however a high dodge will nullify most of them. Her Grand Cross is the biggest threat, as the chance to end affected by ascension aren't negligible and turn the flow of the fight against you. But if you have high dodge chance or if you manage to blind her, she will be unable to finish your party as all her lethal attacks are physical.

She's only weak to pleasure and darkness, and most monsters that can deal either are weak to holy, which make them dangerous to use. Otherwise, most status effects are useless, so pound at her until she dies. Contrary to what Ilias says, fire, ice and lightning are just as effective as any element.

Evaluation
''“…Zion⁈ Her information isn’t in the database… From your memory, let’s build a strategy. Zion is an angel who uses mainly Physical attacks. Because she’s a warrior-type angel, Darkness is an effective status to use. Sleep also works, but not for long. Angels are resistant to Fire, Ice, and Lightning. Use Dark or Pleasure attacks and she’ll fall quickly. This angel… just what is she? ……..”''

Trivia

 * Zion is a placename in the Hebrew Bible, used to refer to a specific hill in Jerusalem (Mount Zion), Jerusalem itself, and the Land of Israel as a whole.
