Overview
Personality and attributes
Due to his short stature, he often confused for being a child. He was once known as Meliodas the Love (慈愛のメリオダス, Jiai no Meriodasu) when he headed the Ten Commandments.
He was the son of the Demon King(魔神王) who was the progenitor and leader of the Demon Clan. Meliodas also had a brother who greatly resembled him and was named Zeldris.
Powers and abilities
Though human in appearance, Meliodas was a member of the Demon race and thus gained all the superhuman abilities of their people. Despite his appearance, he was noted for being thousands of years old. He had incredible regenerative powers whereby his shadowy based form could re-attach severed limbs. All demons were noted to possess seven hearts and the destruction of all of them meant his death. However, a curse from the Demon King made Meliodas immortal and he eventually came back to life as a result.
His inherent power was known as Full Counter (全反撃フルカウンター Furukauntā) that had the ability to reflect a powerful attack back at his attacker. Thus, it was a skill that was particularly effective against more powerful enemies as it made their attack even more powerful when it was reflected back at them. However, this ability could only act in response to an attack and he could not initiate the ability himself. Furthermore, he had to be aware of the attack and time his Full Counter at the correct moments. Thus, hidden attacks or strikes from his blindside could not be countered by this ability.
He came to wield a Sacred Treasure known as Demon Sword Lostvayne (魔剣 ロストヴェイン, Maken Rosutovein) that was a demon-splitting sword. The sword had a special ability known as Jitsuzō Bunshin (実像分身じつぞうぶんしん literally meaning "Physical Clone") that allowed Meliodas to create up to four clones of himself. Each clone though retained only a fraction of the power of the original where a single clone had half the power of the original. Meanwhile, further clones led to the power level being halved among each of them. It was this ability that made it highly compatible with his Full Counter ability and allowed him to use it much more dangerously.
Originally, he came to serve the Demon Clan and even joined the ranks of their elite force the Ten Commandments (十戒, Jikkai) where he served as their leader. After defecting, he joined the ranks of Stigma (光の聖痕スティグマ Sutiguma) where he was regarded as a traitor by his people as a result. Thousands of years later, he was one of the founders of the legendary order of knights that were known as the Seven Deadly Sins (七つの大罪, Nanatsu no Taizai).
