Can I Keep Them? is a Subquest in Shin Megami Tensei V. Most Subquests will reward you with a large amount of experience, some Macca, and then you’ll receive an item of sorts. Most of the time, it’ll be a Talisman which allows you to have access to the different Magatsuhi skills in the game.

Capture 10 Mothmen for Lilim.

Where to start Can I Keep Them?¶

Once you make it to the Konan 4th Block area, you should be able to find a Punishing Foe called Girimehkala in a little ditch southeast of the entrance. You will have to sneak past him to reach a little dead end, where you will find the Lilim that gives you the quest. She absolutely adores Mothmen and wants you to use the Capture Pot to collect 10 of them for her.

Where to find Mothmen for Can I Keep Them?¶

Thankfully, the Mothman demon is not hard to find, as you likely encountered some on the way to the questgiver. Their main area is in Konan 3rd Block, which is where you passed through in order to get to the 4th Block. The Mothman is a common demon to be found in this area, although there is one specific spot where they are very common. In the western portion of the area, there is a dead end that has some vending machines at the end. This little path here should have four Mothman spawns, each of which will mostly consist of just Mothmen.

Recommended Party¶

	Koppa Tengu

There is really any need to have specific demons for this quest, as you are fighting regular enemies here. Of course, the Mothman is weak to Force, so as long as your party has access to that element, then they should be good. If you wanted to have a specific demon, though, Koppa Tengu can be a great choice, as they have Mazan from the outset (Force damage to all enemies).
