Quantum Devil Saga: Avatar Tuner, Vol. 1 (クォンタムデビルサーガ アバタールチューナー I Kuontamu Debiru Sāga Abatāru Chūnā I?, Quantum Devil Saga, Avatar Tuner I) is a 2011 science fiction novel by Japanese author Yu Godai, the first in a series of five installments. It is the author's reimagined take on the story of the Digital Devil Saga series of role-playing games (for which she was also the original story creator). While the original games were set in the world of the Megami Tensei video games, the novel series does not take place in the Megami Tensei continuity.
In the post-apocalyptic Junkyard, warring tribes vie to unify the six territories and thus gain entrance to Nirvana, the promised land. This battlefield is watched over by the Church, a religious order that decides the rules of this bleak world. Serph is the leader of the small but intrepid Embryon tribe, which consists of him, the tribe's core members, and a handful of foot soldiers. When a mysterious object appears in the Junkyard it, it incites a battle between the Embryon tribe and the rival Vanguards. In the aftermath of this firefight, Serph discovers a mysterious girl named Sera, and finds that he and his closest warriors have gained the ability to transform into powerful demons. The Embryon must adapt to these developments and try to understand their meaning as the balance of power begins to shift in the Junkyard.
