This is an RP, not game.My assumption is that the Velvet Room connects to other SMT franchises and series through the Compendium which summons those same demons.Would also be more accurate to call Persona a separate dimension rather than timeline too. There's nothing in Persona that directly connects it to SMT other than as works of fiction, or the demons/personas.

While I'll defer to your judgement on not featuring mainline SMT concepts in Persona, the claim that nothing in the franchise directly connects it to SMT is blatantly untrue. Two characters (one from SMT If ..., the other from Devil Summoner), appear in the series. Both former protagonists, even (although Kyouji turns up as a ghost possessing a detective).

Apologies, however, for starting this off-topic conversation.
