Reincarnation: Another ability common among all Devils is reincarnation: when a Devil dies, they reincarnate in Hell; when they die in Hell, they reincarnate on Earth. This ability makes them practically immortal.

However, if the concept to which the Devil belongs is forgotten by humanity, he is unable to reincarnate and ceases to exist.
