  • The Three Wise Men are mysterious beings from Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey.
  • In Christian tradition the Magi (Greek: μάγοι magoi), Three Wise Men, Three Kings or Kings from the East are said to have visited Jesus after his birth, bearing gifts. They are mentioned only in the Gospel of Matthew , which says that they came "from the east to Jerusalem" to worship the Christ, "born King of the Jews". Because three gifts were recorded, there are traditionally said to have been three Magi, though Matthew does not specify their number. According to Matthew, the kings, for whom the Eastern church gives a variety of different names for (in the West the names have been settled since the 8th century as Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar) followed a star which came to be known as the Star of Bethlehem. As they approached Jerusalem, Herod tried to trick them into revealing where Jesus was, so that he might be put to death. Upon finding Jesus, they gave him three symbolic gifts: gold, frankincense and myrrh. The tradition of gift giving for Christians dates back to this story. In many countries, they're the equivalent of Santa Claus.

Their power and knowledge is from which most of the characters seek their advice and alliance, though most of them does not know about their own agenda until later in the game. Despite their magical skills, they are mainly a threat due to their control over the dragon Belial which is enslaved by their magic, and becoming very furious at his foes. When Belial was killed, the Wise Men had to pretty much rely on their own power for their evil schemes, which finally ended in their defeat at the hands of the main protagonists directly or indirectly.
